Setup
The A6061 Rope Pulley must be used with a large carabiner, 100-120mm minimum (not included).
If you do not have a lanyard stopper already on the rope:
- Locate the end of the rope where the bottom weight will attach.
- Pull the end of the rope under the metal pin (through the handle) and underneath the rope stopper (rope stopper should be in an open position*).
- Continue feeding the rope under the rope stopper and out through the other side.
- Test the pulley on land before using it in the water.
If you already have a lanyard stopper on the rope that cannot be removed:
- Locate the end of the rope opposite of where the bottom weight will attach to.
- Push the end of the rope through the pulley system over the larger side with the wheel and underneath the rope stopper (rope stopper should be in an open position*).
- Pull the rope through and continue feeding it underneath the metal pin (through the handle).
- Test the pulley on land before using it in the water.
*See the illustration below for the rope stopper’s ‘open’ position

Secondary Safety Measure
When diving, we recommend taking the remaining loose rope and secure it to a second carabiner (we recommend using the clove hitch) attached to another place on the buoy outside of the D-ring area, such as one of the handles. This will provide a backup attachment point as a secondary safety measure (see the illustration below for reference).
