W A R N I N G:
• Read, understand and follow the instructions, failure to do so may cause death or serious bodily injury.
• ALWAYS match the clip to the same size wire rope.
• ALWAYS prepare wire rope and end termination as instructed.
• NEVER use wire rope clips with plastic coated wire rope.
• ALWAYS apply “first load” to test the wire rope assembly. The test load should weigh more than or a weight more than or a weight equal to working loads expected.
• ALWAYS check and retighten nuts to recommended torque.

For OSHA (Construction) applications, see OSHA 1926.251.
1. Refer to table in following these instruction. Turn back specified amount of rope from thimble loop. Apply first clip one base width from dead end of rope. Apply U-BOLT over dead end of wire rope - live end rests in saddle (Never saddle a dead horse!) Tighten nuts evenly, alternate from one nut to the other until reaching the recommended torque.

2. When two clips are required apply the second clip as near the loop or thimble as possible. Tighten nuts evenly, alternating until reaching the recommended torque. When more than two clips are required, apply the second clip as near the loop or thimble as possible, turn nuts on second clip firmly, but do nut tighten. Proceed to step

3. When three or more clips are required, space additional clips equally between first two - take up rope slack - tighten nuts on each U-BOLT evenly, alternating from one nut to the other until reaching recommended torque.

4. IMPORTANT
Apply first load to test the assembly. This load should be of equal or greater weight than loads expected in use. Next, check and retighten nuts to recommended torque.
In accordance with good rigging and maintenance practices, the wire rope end termination should be inspected periodically for wear, abuse and general adequacy.
