• Double the wire rope around a wire rope thimble of the appropriate size, making sure that the "dead end turn back" is at least as long as shown.
• Place the first clip at least as far from dead end of the cable as the width of the clip base, with the U-bolt part of the clip securing  the dead end of the wire rope. Nuts should be tighten equally to the torque values shown in the clips features below.
• The second clip should be placed as close to the thimble as possible. If additional clips are required (see clips features for recommendations) space them evenly between the first two.
• Tighten all clips to the recommended torque value, making sure that there is no slack in the wire rope between the clips.
• WARNING: When a load is first applied to this assembly the nuts must be re-tightened to the torque values shown. To maintain the assembly in safe working order nuts should be checked regularly and re-tightened as needed.
