Do not
•repeatedly remove and attach tethers.
•force the bolt into the socket.
•use the device if the bolt will not fully screw in.
•use the device if the bolt is loose.
Step 2. Attach Rope Wrench
1. Press the spring-loaded tab on the Slic Pin inward and pull the Slic Pin out of the rst side plate. There
is a small recess on the inside of the other side plate that seats the spring-loaded tab, allowing the
climbing rope to be inserted without removing the tab completely.
2. Place the climbing rope along the Wheel.
3. Push the Slic Pin back in such that the climbing rope is secured between the Slic Pin and the Wheel.
Fig 5.
Do not install the Rope Wrench upside-down (see below for proper installation orientation).
It will not function at all if upside-down and may interfere with the friction hitch.
Note: When installed correctly and pulled down, the Rope Wrench should bend the climbing
rope into an S-shape.
CAUTION: SECURE SLIC PIN
The Slic Pin relies on the actuation of a small spring to become secured. Before use, ensure that
the Slic Pin is fully inserted, constrained, and unhibited by any rope bres, and that the metal tab
clicks outward. Failure to do so will cause the Rope Wrench to come off of the climbing rope and
render the Rope Wrench useless.
WARNING: INSTALLATION ORIENTATION
Do not install the Rope Wrench upside down. Failure to do so could interfere
with the function of the friction hitch and can lead to serious injury or death.
Fig 5
CAUTION: TIGHTEN TETHER BOLT
The bolt at the Tether Attachment Point may come unscrewed during climbing if not properly
tightened. This will cause the tether to detach and the render the Rope Wrench useless.
Step 3. Repeat Bounce Test.
With the Rope Wrench installed, repeat the test described in Step 6 of the previous section.
