See our article in Crane Hotline Magazine!
The purpose of this device is to first warn the operator and nearby personnel in the event that a crane operator accidentally pulls the lever of the the tied back line or if the operator booms down without slacking the tied back line. A secondary function of the device is to "restrain" or "catch" the line or block if the operator failed to recognize the first warnings.
"restrain" or "catch" the line or block
"You're going to use a chain or nylon when you tie back anyway, why not use something that protects your people and equipment!"
