- A pliable 1/2” to 5/8” synthetic lead rope is recommended. Cotton ropes are woven too loosely and may snag or catch when pulled thru the Adjustment Position.
- Fold the lead rope in half. Feed the folded rope through and around The Clip and place above the Adjustment Position. This setting allows you to easily alter the length of your rope. Adjust the length of your rope as needed.
- Once you have determined your lead length, drop the rope into the Adjustment Position. By turning the screw in this setting, you can adjust the amount of tension on your lead rope. A quick-release stopper knot toward the end of your lead rope is suggested whenever your horse is tied on good footing. No knot should be used in an enclosed area like a trailer or when cross-tying.
- Use the Locked Position when hanging hay bags or water buckets. This setting is not recommended for tying horses.
