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 rotation. Do not wrap
more than one layer of pull line on the
capstan.
c. Start the hydraulic power source.
