away from the crossover, stroking rope
rmly. Tails should bury inside cover.

Attach tapered tail of Rope B to d.
Insert the d into Rope A at Mark 2,
approximately the diameter of the line
away from insertion point of Rope A

Buried tails
Attach tail of Rope A to d.
Insert d at Mark 2 of Rope B,
bring out past Mark 3, then
remove d. When feeding
the d through with the tail
attached, do not hold on to
the d and try to milk the
slack back. Doing this will
cause the tapered end to
disconnect from the d.
Hold on to the section
of the tapered end
right above the d
to avoid this.
BURYING ROPE A INTO ROPE B
8A
Tie off the tail of Rope A to a
stationary object, then use both
hands and weight of your body to
smooth Rope B toward Rope A to
bury Rope A up to its own Mark 2.
Leave tail sticking out.
