Even the highest quality rope is a safety risk if not properly maintained. Before and after every use, perform these checks:

• Visual Inspection: Thoroughly inspect the entire length of the rope for any signs of damage, including cuts, abrasions, fraying, or kinks. Discard any rope with significant damage.

• Check Terminations: Inspect the splices or factory-spliced eyes at each end of the rope to ensure they are secure and in good condition.

• Swivel Use: Always use a properly rated Swivel between the pulling rope and the cable grip. This tool absorbs any rotational forces, protecting the cable and rope from twisting and kinking.

• Clean and Dry Storage: Always clean the rope after use and store it on a proper reel in a clean, dry, and cool location, away from direct sunlight, chemicals, and heat.
