Routinely inspect the following:
• Chain link used to connect rope ends to ensure the chain does not show any
wear.
• Rope to ensure that the connection of the two rope ends is not showing any
fraying or tearing of individual strands. Replace at first sign of wear.
• Rope to ensure the entire length of rope has no loose strands and there are no
foreign objects stuck in the strands which could cause cuts to the hands.
