V ROPES must be made to last as tong as possible The export of Steel Wire Ropes, Steel Wire, and Fibre Ropes is npt permitted except for essential War purposes and provided other sources of supply are not available. The following hints may therefore help you to make your existing Ropes last longer:--WIRE ROPES I UNCOILING AND HANDLING: Wire Ropes should be paid out without kinking. Coil should be rolled along ground not unwound by throwing off turns from Hat position. A reel should have a shaft passed through centre and placed on a standard to allow it to revolve under , tension. Kinking disturbs the. lay and reduces Rope-life. SPOOLING Faulty,., spooling causes abrasion. Rope’should be spooled evenly on drum. A little care gives Longer Rope Life. Avoid Shock-Loading. This increases strain and reduces life. Use pulleys of correct size. Look out for Broken Wires. They will damage adjoining wires. Pay attention to lubrication. See that end attachments are correctly fitted. Where drum takes more than one layer, periodically cut off a piece of Rope suft ciently long to change point of crossover. HEMP ROPES UNCOILING : Lay coil on side, inner end of Rope below; reach dwn through coil, draw inner end upwards so that it comes from coil in anticlockwise direction. ABRASION: Avoid unnecessary abrasion. Do not allow kinks to form, nor pass Ropes oyer sharp ■. edges. Avoid dragging along ground or over rough surfaces. STORAGE: Store in a dirt'cto!, u, t well ventilated place. Make sure \ \j Ropes are thoroughly dried'. before storing. Do not keep on floor but place in loose coils on wooden grat-. f ing or hang on a wooden peg. J I* Rope is dirty, wash thoroughly wd- ; . dry before storage. Dirt act* alt; grinding powder when Ropers O : use,' and causes severe internal wjab, DAMAGE FROM CHEMICALS: Avoid contact with acids and alkahoi both are extremely injurious to Hemp Ropes, and cause rapid deterioration. 8.ft.9 It is better to use the correct size and^type «/ Rope for the particular job.
