RIGGING
The LUG-ALL cable ratchet winch-hoist will operate in
any position: right side up, upside down or at any angle
as a hoist or horizontally as a winch. The lifting and
pulling power of the winch-hoist depends on whether it
is single-line rigged or double-line rigged with the use of
a pulley block. Rig the winch-hoist with double-line for
full rated capacity or single-line for one half-rated
capacity and twice the lifting distance and operating
speed.
Always rig the LUG-ALL so that it will hang freely and be
free to move from side-to-side. If the frame is jammed
out of line it is subjected to undue stress from uneven
loading and would not be free to move sideways, which
is necessary to allow even wrapping of the cable on the
drum. Hooks should be placed so the point of contact is
in line with the center of the shank or eye. When
rigging a LUG-ALL that will be used in rapid lowering
mode it must be done so a full stroke of the handle is
possible. For example, if working from a ceiling with the
LUG-ALL right side up it would be necessary to use a
choker or extension to lower the LUG-ALL sufficient
distance to allow the handle to travel its full arc, which
carries it above the top hook.
