Swivels
Description
The Greenlee swivels, when used with a rope connector,
are intended for connecting the pull rope to the utility
product in an overhead or underground application.
The swivel permits rotation of the pull rope while protect-
ing the product from twisting.
• These swivels are not designed to run around bull
wheels.
• These swivels are not suitable for directional
drilling applications.
• These swivels are not intended for lifting appli-
cations.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Excessive load hazard:
Do not exceed safe working limit (see Operating
Specifications).
• Operating swivel at loads in excess of its safe
working limit could cause permanent bearing
damage (even though separation due to failure will
not occur until the specified ultimate load is reached).
• Operating swivel at loads in excess of its safe
working limit will void warranty.
Failure to observe this warning could result in severe
injury or death.
Use recommended safe working limit:
• For underground use, and use in conduit, the
recommended safe working limit is 3:1, based on the
ultimate load.
• For overhead use, the required safe working limit is
5:1, based on the ultimate load, due to the higher risk
of severe personal injury or property damage.
Failure to observe this warning could result in severe
injury or death.
• Never use a worn, defective or incomplete component.
• Ensure that all components of the pulling system are
able to withstand the maximum pulling loads. Compo-
nents not rated for the pull force could break and
release the stored energy of the pull.
Failure to observe this warning could result in severe
injury or death.
Do not modify or dismantle the line swivel.
The swivel was assembled, inspected and shipped in its
“covered warranty” form. Any attempt to dismantle or
modify the swivel will void the warranty and could result
in property damage, severe injury or death.
Be prepared for the unexpected.
Use recognized safety practices, and wear recognized
safety equipment.
Failure to observe this warning could result in severe
injury or death.
Swivels are not designed to be pulled over sheaves,
capstans, bull wheels or bends in conduit, since a bending
load acts to increase the tension in the line swivel and
may cause damage. If this situation cannot be avoided,
select a swivel with a safe working limit that is 20%
greater than the anticipated straight tension load.
Failure to observe this warning could result in severe
injury or death.

Dimensions and weights subject to change without notice.
The Underground Safe Working Limit is calculated using a 3:1 safety factor based on the ultimate load.
The Overhead Safe Working Limit is calculated using a 5:1 safety factor based on the ultimate load.
The Ultimate Load is the tensile load required to separate the swivel into two or more parts.

Installation
1. Remove the clevis pins from the line swivel.
2. Insert the items you want to attach into the clevis
ends. Re-assemble the clevis pins.
Maintenance
1. After each use, assess the condition of the swivel,
checking for wear and external damage. Check for
axial and radial play in the bearings.
2. Replace worn or bent clevis pins with original
equipment manufacturer’s pins. Replacement kits
consisting of two pins are available.
Replacement Pins
To achieve rated strength, always tighten attachment
pins firmly before placing these swivels under load.
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT SERVICEABLE. If swivel
ceases to operate correctly, replace with new one.
The only replacement/repair part on these swivels
are the attachment pins. Use only OEM pins. Do not
substitute.
