A hand puller, also known as a manual puller or hand-operated come-along, is a mechanical device designed to lift, pull, or secure heavy loads using manual effort.
Features
:- Many hand pullers utilize a ratcheting mechanism that allows users to apply force in one direction while preventing the load from slipping back. This ensures that the force applied is maintained, keeping the load secure during operation.
- The lever or handle is manually operated by the user to engage the ratchet mechanism, creating tension for lifting or pulling tasks.
- A rope, or chain connects the hand puller to the load. This component is wound around a drum or spool on the puller, facilitating the lifting or pulling process.
- Hand pullers generally feature hooks or other attachment points on both ends to secure the device to the load and an anchor point, ensuring stability during use.
