Maasdam Continuous Rope Puller Replacement Kit

The Maasdam rope puller replacement kit lets you service a Maasdam continuous rope puller rather than replace the whole tool. When the puller starts slipping or the parts show wear, a kit like this is the cheap way back to a working puller.

Keeping a rope puller in service

A Maasdam rope puller is a simple hand-operated tool for pulling a tree over, freeing a hung top or tensioning a line, and like any tool that grips rope under load, its working parts wear. When the puller starts to slip or the action feels rough, swapping in fresh parts is usually all it needs.

Check your puller's model and the kit contents before ordering so the parts match. You will find other pulling and mechanical advantage gear in the same section.

Fitting and use

Follow Maasdam's instructions for replacing parts, and test the puller under a light load before you trust it on a real pull. Use rope of the size and type the puller was designed for, because the wrong rope will slip or wear the grip quickly.

Rope pullers can build a lot of force. Anchor to something sound, keep people out of the line of pull and well back from the tree, and stop if anything shifts. Rigging gear is for moving wood, not for life support. Match every component to the load with a working margin, follow the manufacturer's ratings and ANSI Z133, and make sure the crew is trained in rigging before relying on it. Note when each piece went into service, so worn gear gets retired on time instead of living on the truck for years.
