INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
TRISKELION AS A CHANGE OF
DIRECTION
To use the Triskelion as a change of direction:
•
Use the integrated pulleys in the Triskelion head
OR
•
Attach a pulley to an anchor point on the Triskelion
head.
The resultant force bisects the rope/cable coming into and
out of a pulley (Figure 17).
The resultant force (indicated by the dashed line) must be
kept within the triangle formed by the feet when there is no
stabilization rigging as it can topple the Triskelion.
‡
This is achieved by keeping the haul line parallel with the
legs and inside of the Hobble Strap.
Safety / Belay / Backup Line omitted from Figures 18, 19
and 20 for clarity.
