MAXTRAX Rope Damper

The MAXTRAX ROPE DAMPENER has been designed and tested as part of the MAXTRAX RECOVERY SYSTEM. The MAXTRAX RECOVERY SYSTEM is comprised solely of MAXTRAX products and has not been tested with 3rd party products. When the MAXTRAX RECOVERY SYSTEM is overloaded, the MAXTRAX FUSE SHACKLE is the weakest link and the expected point of failure. Accordingly, YOU MUST use a MAXTRAX FUSE SHACKLE within the MAXTRAX RECOVERY SYSTEM for every vehicle recovery. Position the MAXTRAX ROPE DAMPENER near the MAXTRAX FUSE SHACKLE. The MAXTRAX ROPE DAMPENER can be attached to a rope loop featuring a MAXTRAX FUSE SHACKLE. Only use rated recovery points when using the MAXTRAX RECOVERY SYSTEM. 1. Conduct a visual inspection of the MAXTRAX ROPE DAMPENER and MAXTRAX FUSE SHACKLE(S) to ensure they are undamaged and in a safe and usable condition. 2. Prepare the MAXTRAX ROPE DAMPENER by placing weighted material or items, such as sand or water bottles, into the two sleeves. 3. Close the MAXTRAX ROPE DAMPENER sleeves by folding over the edge twice and securing the clips. 4. Using a MAXTRAX FUSE SHACKLE, feed the open MAXTRAX FUSE SHACKLE through the loop on the MAXTRAX ROPE DAMPENER and then through the rope loop of a MAXTRAX KINETIC ROPE, MAXTRAX STATIC ROPE or MAXTRAX WINCH ROPE adjacent to the attached MAXTRAX FUSE SHACKLE in the recovery system.
