How to splice TEUFELBERGER Tachyon
2. Markings
Each from the rope end.
✔40 cm mark A
✔48 cm mark B
✔63 cm mark C

3. approximately 1,5 m behind B tie a sling into the rope.
4. Pull out the core at mark B.
Mark the core exactly at the point where it is coming out of the rope (mark 1).

5. Pull out the core further
Set 7 cm behind mark 1 mark 2 and 47 cm behind mark 1 is mark 3. Is there no mark 1 at the core visible, cut off the spliced section of the rope and
start again from the beginning (because without mark 1 you have no reference for the correct position)..
6. Beginning at mark 3 and mark each third crossing of the core yarns 3 times.

7. One crossing before mark 3 pull out the 3 purple cores and cut them off tapered.
8. At every marked crossing of the core yarns
Pull out always 2 yarns left and 2 yarns right. There need to remain always 2 yarns left and right.

9. At the cover mark a pair of cover yarns
2 cm before mark A into the direction rope end. From that marking mark every second pair (always one left, one right) and pull them out -> 12 yarns in
total. If there is no mark A as starting point, cut off the splicing section and start again from beginning (there was a mistake before).
10. Fix cover yarns with a tape.

11. Push the cover end with a splice needle from mark 2 to mark 3.
Cut off the pulled out core and cover yarns. If one of both markings isn´t there, cut off the splicing section and start again (there was a mistake be-
fore).

12. Push the wire sling through the rope
From mark C to mark A. At mark A push through at the inside of the eye. Pull the core end through from mark A to mark C. If you are missing one of the
markings cut off the splicing section and start again from beginning (there was a mistake before).
13. Milk the core within the eye
Mark the point where the cover comes out of the core and open the cover braid over a length of 5 – 6 cm, cut it off tapered and milk it back.
