Section I - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (cont'd)
Death or serious injury can
occur when working near
power lines.
Learn - beforehand - as
much about your working
area as possible. Be sure
that exact locations of
overhead power lines, and
other obstructions or
hazards are known.
SAFETY TIPS
Don't use winch cables with
hooks attached by means of
cable clips. Use only cables with
hooks attached by means of
thimbles and machine swaged
terminals.
USE CABLE CLIPS ONLY IN
THE EVENT OF AN
EMERGENCY FIELD
TEMPORARY REPAIR.
Use at least three clips spaced
3-4 inches apart and reduce the
cable working limit by 20%.
U-bolt of the clip should never be
around the live or long end of the
cable. Replace clips as soon as
possible with swaged cable
termination.
