Finish Puller Setup

a. Move the puller into its final position. The pull line will wrap best on the capstan if the capstan is angled

about 10° away from the pull line (figure 18). This will allow the line to walk down the side of the capstan

and push the previous wraps to the side.

b. Place four or more side-by-side wraps of the pull

line around the capstan in the direction of rota-

tion. Do not wrap more than one layer of pull

line on the capstan.

c. Start the hydraulic power source.
