Installing Plastic Fingers

To avoid bodily injury from fall of raised reel, always engage reel safety props before going under raised

reel for any reason.

1. Position the finger on the rear of the finger tube.

Engage the lug at the bottom of the finger in the lower

hole in the tine tube.

2. Lift the top flange gently and rotate the finger as shown

until the lug in the top of the finger engages the upper

hole in the finger tube.

Do NOT apply force to the finger prior to tightening the

mounting screw. Applying force without tightening the

mounting screw will break the finger or shear the

locating pins.

3. Install screw (A) using a Torx

and torque to 8.5–9.0 Nm (75–80 lbf·in).
