Side Plate or in the CLUTCH User Manual.
1. Move the Control Handle to the Stand By position and give a quick pull on the Tension Side

the Control Handle to the Release (Range) position to allow rope through the device. Check that it is
possible to move rope through the device.
3. While maintaining load on the device, release the Control Handle and check that the device locks up and
holds the rope.
