Proper use of Fist-Grip Clips

Refer to the illustration below when following these instructions. Turn back specified amounts of rope from thimble or loop. Apply first clip one base width from dead end of rope. Tighten nuts evenly, alternating from one nut to the other until reaching the recommended torque.

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 and turn nuts on second clip firmly, but do not tighten. Proceed to step 3.

When three of more clips are required, space additional clips between the first two and take up rope slack. Then tighten nuts on all clips, alternating from one nut to the other until reaching the recommended torque.

Apply an initial load equal to loads expected in use. Inspect for proper spacing and retighten the nuts to the recommended torque.
