Zs Alloy Jammers And Zs Carbon Jammers - Spinlock XX Série Mode D'emploi

ZS Alloy Jammers and ZS Carbon Jammers

The jammers are relatively simple to operate, but because of the high loads
it is important to fully understand their function before use.
To Open : Pull handle out until latch clicks. The latch must be fully engaged
to hold the jaws open.
The rope can now be inserted and run freely in either direction. On large
diameter ropes it may be easier to lead the rope through the jammer with
the jaws removed. (see maintenance).
To lock line : Hoist sail and tension with winch. Before easing load off
winch, release the latch in the handle and push the jaws forward onto the
rope. Continue to apply firm pressure on the handle as the load is eased
off the winch onto the jammer. Once the jaws are fully engaged onto the
rope, they will slide forward a few millimeters as the full load is secured.
To Re-Open : The full load in the rope must be returned to the winch
before the jammer can be opened. Never attempt to the open jammer
without transferring the load back onto the winch. Only when the load
is secured on the winch is it safe to pull the handle back and engage the
latch. The jaws are now fully locked open and the rope can be controlled
from the winch to run freely through the jammer.
Note : For safety reasons ZS Jammers can only be released after the rope
load has been transferred to the winch drum.
