Directions for Use

Attach the block securely using the swivel head and a suitable fixing point on the boat.

Pass the rope through the sheave and use the integrated becket to attach the end of the rope when required.

Make sure the rope moves smoothly and the block can follow the direction of the load without twisting or rubbing against other fittings.

Important Information

Always check that the block, rope, attachment points and other rigging components are suitable for your application.

The becket allows the block to be used in multi-part purchase systems, but the mechanical advantage depends on the complete rope arrangement.
