Twin-Path ® Adjustable Bridle<br />
SLINGMAX ®<br />
Length<br />
(Feet - In)<br />
If the lifting points are an equal distance from the center of<br />
gravity then the Twin-Path ® Adjustable can be hooked-up<br />
with the double or single sling on either lifting point.<br />
If the lifting points are an equal distance on either side of<br />
the center of gravity but one is higher, then the double<br />
sling should be attached to the higher lifting point.<br />
If one of the lifting points is closer to the center of gravity,<br />
then attach the double sling to this lifting point. It will<br />
have the highest weight concentration. If the Twin-Path ®<br />
Adjustable is attached so that the single sling is nearest the<br />
center of gravity, it will not allow the lift to be made.<br />
