FEATURES
OF THE Reduces the heavy expenses incurred unloading thousands of rolls of fabric from enclosed trucks each year. The Roll Puller™ eliminates the manual laborers needed to carry rolls from the front to the back of the truck and prevents injuries. Multiple Roll Pullers, two to five, cut unloading time from 50% to 400% reducing labor costs and trucker's sitting time. Pays for itself in one or two truckloads. Protects laborers from back and other injuries, which often result in costly disability and workman's comp claims. In use over the past 20 years, the Roll Puller™ has unloaded hundreds of thousands, possibly even millions of rolls of fabric (from 4-16 oz.) Roll Puller™ is not just for geotextiles but can also be used for unloading any kind of product that comes on a 3 1/2 " - 4 1/2" cardboard core, i.e., grid, carpeting, clothing fabrics, canvas, plastics, etc. . |

| For Contractors, Distributors and Truckers Rolls can be pulled out of the truck onto the ground, and existing pile of fabric, or a loading dock. To move unloaded rolls, a regular forklift can scoop them up from the sides, or a forklift outfitted with "poles" can lift and move them from the ends.

DIRECTIONS
FOR USE: 1 - Attach a chain or rope to the Roll Puller™. 2 - Insert the Roll Puller™ into 3 1/2" - 4 1/2" roll core (other sizes can be manufactured) until loop and 1" of puller remain. Holding the Roll Puller stationary, pull the ring back locking the teeth into the core. Tug on the rope or chain to make sure the puller is set and will not come out of the core. 3 - For Multiple Roll Pullers, attach short chains to the Roll Pullers and a heavy steel "O" ring. Attach a 50' to 60' rope to the steel "O" ring. We recommend at least a 3/4" or 1" diameter 8,000lb. minimum pull rope (twice the weight required to pull 21 rolls of fabric). Depending on the weight to be pulled, a stronger rope may be required for heavier rolls. 4 - Pull on the rope with available equipment (forklift, endloader, pickup truck, etc.) For safety, all personnel should stand clear in case the rope breaks. 5 - When the fabric is unloaded and line is slack, remove the Roll Puller by pushing in the ring to release the teeth from the core. 6 - When Multiple Roll Pullers are used, rolls can be pulled in stacks or groups. 2 pullers / 2-6 rolls, 3 pullers / 3-14 rolls, 4 pullers 4-15 rolls, 5 pullers / 5-21 rolls. 1,2 or 3 rows (in height) of fabric can be removed with one pull depending on product weight. In pulling multiple rows, excess weight may cause the Roll Pullers to pull the cores from the rolls. Past experience using 5 Roll Pullers, a maximum of 2 - 3 rows (14 - 21 rolls) of 4oz. fabric may be removed on one pull. This may vary, based on each manufacturer's product. 7 - If the cardboard cores appear to be partially pulled out of the fabric, reduce the number of rows and weight on top of rolls being pulled. Most manufactures wrap fabric tightly and/or glue to the core. If the cores are not wrapped tightly and/or glued, the Roll Puller will pull them out. This is not the fault of the Roll Puller but the fabric manufacturer. Check your fabric rolls for loose cores before using the Roll Puller. 8 - SUPPLEMENT PACKAGE Available from GAC, or may be purchased from your local supplier: 5/16" chains with grab and slip hooks, 1" x 4" id steel ring, 3/4" or 1" rope |
