Delta PULLING KIT FOR PULLING LEVEL MK-1.5/ODC-1

The pulling set is intended for the first pulling level of multi-element structures made of MK-1.5 segments.

The pullers are designed to be installed between the 4th and 5th grid elements.

Kit contents: 3x Flange, 18x Bolt M8x40 with nut, 6x Rope protector ø5mm, 3x Steel rope ø5mm, 12m - blinded at one end, with spare, 9x Rope clamp ø5mm, 3x Clamp 0.75T, 3x Rope tensioner M10 eye-eye.

Login procedure:.

1. The flange is screwed between 2 MK-1.5 mast sections (between 4th and 5th lattice element).

2. Through the mounting hole in the flange, we extend the clamp with a pin towards the stem.

3. Attach the tension rope to the clamp with the closed end (where the rope protection is installed).

4. We pass the free end of the rope (the one where there is no rope protection) through the rope protection placed on the rope tensioner.

5. The free end of the rope tensioner is attached to the foundation through a loop (the fastening element depends on the anchorage - on the customer's side).

6. We select the slack on the rope, put on 3 rope clamps and tighten.

It should be remembered that the first clamp should be pulled "loosely" as close as possible to the rope guard - so that the rope fits nicely throughout the chain and only then tighten. If you do not choose the slack, the rope may slip off the rope guard and may be connected incorrectly, or the rope may fray over time.

The clamps should be spaced approximately 30cm apart, and the remaining rope should be cut or twisted as a spare - as it may be needed when changing or moving the mast attachments.

7. Complete the procedure by grabbing the remaining slack with a rope tensioner and lightly tensioning the rope (approximately 100kg maximum force).

Significant excess rope tension can deform the mast hinge (steel triangle) or break the threads of the steel hooks/anchors in the foundation.

The kit was designed with long-term rope corrosion repair in mind - the new kit has a strength of 800kg per rope.
