step
installing splice cover material
Using an appropriate size and approx 1.7 times splice length of cover material (splice length approx. 60 times rope diameter), slide the
cover onto either end of the rope, and slide past Mark 3. This will be used later to cover the exposed sub-ropes in the splice area.
On each of the 2 ends to be spliced together measure 33 times rope diameter. This is Mark 1. From Mark 1, measure an addi-
tional 20 times the diameter, this is Mark 2. Now make Mark 3, 10 times the diameter beyond Mark 2. Tape securely at Marks 3.
Note: Mark 1 on the cover is for reference only; however, each sub-rope will be marked at this location after cover removal.

Carefully cut the cover of the rope at Marks 2, and remove from rope. Unbraid the cover from
Marks 2 back to Marks 3. This material will be used later to incorporate the cover into the splice.
