c) Adjust the spring
tension if necessary,
using the knurled knob,
to ensure proper contact
as shown.








Do not use the grounding roller to support the conductor being
placed. Use a wire rope snatch block, drive hook, suspension
clamp, or other such suitable attachment to support the strand at
the pole on which the grounding roller is attached.


When slack is taken out of the strand at the reel end of the placing
operation, the roller will pull back against the supporting attach-
ment on the pole, but continue to provide grounding contact as
shown.

Remove the grounding roller after the conductor being placed has
been tensioned, sagged, dead-ended, or otherwise permanently
attached and grounded to the power company vertical neutral of a
multi-grounded neutral (MGN system).
