SETUP AND OPERATION SETUP AND OPERATION
PULLING INSTRUCTIONS (SETUP)
1. When pulling with a polyline/mule tape or rope, two methods of
loading the Capstan (1) can be used.
Fig 1 Fig 2
MOUNTING DRILL TO PULLER
1. Loosen hand drill chuck to receive Input Shaft (3) of puller.
2. Align handle of hand drill with Adjustable Drill Cradle (2) and
install onto Input Shaft Chuck Adaptor (3) and tighten drill chuck (Fig
1 and 2).
CAUTION: Care should be taken when engaging the drill
motor to tighten onto the pullers Input Shaft Chuck Adapter
(3) as to not pinch fingers from torque of drill.
3. Tighten bolts on Adjustable Drill Slide (7) once it is in contact
with drill handle.
4. Secure drill handle to Adjustable Drill Cradle (2) with supplied
strap.
A. When pulling underground or from below, make a loop in the
end of the polyline/ mule tape and attach the eye around the
Polyline/Mule Tape Pin (10) on the Capstan (1) (Fig 3). This will
allow the polyline/mule tape to continuously accumulate onto
the Capstan (1) (Fig 4). Switch the 18-Volt drill into REVERSE
and payoff like most conventional wire pullers.
Fig 3 Fig 4
B. When pulling overhead or from above, pull forward pin on
Front Extension (6) and rotate 180 degrees and insert back into
Base Arm (5) and re-install pin (Fig 5 and 6). Make a loop in the
end of the polyline/mule tape and attach the eye around the
Polyline/Mule Tape Pin (10) from underside of the Capstan (1).
This will allow the polyline/mule tape to continuously accumu-
late onto the Capstan (1). Switch the 18-Volt drill into FOR-
WARD and payoff like most conventional wire pullers.

SETUP AND OPERATION SETUP AND OPERATION
C. When pulling from the side, make a loop in the end of the
polyline/ mule tape and attach the eye around the Polyline/Mule
Tape Pin (10) on the Capstan (1) (Fig 7). This will allow the
polyline/mule tape to continuously accumulate onto the
Capstan (1) (Fig 8). Switch the 18-Volt drill into REVERSE
and engage drill motor.
Fig 7 Fig 8
ROPE PULL SETUP
A. When pulling underground or from below, wrap rope over
the top of Capstan (1) in a clockwise direction multiple times
(Fig 9) and switch the 18-Volt drill into REVERSE and payoff like
most conventional wire pullers.
Fig 9
B. When pulling overhead or from above, pull forward pin on
Front Extension (6) and rotate 180 degrees and insert back into
Base Arm (5) and reinstall pin (Fig 5 and 6). Wrap rope under
the bottom of the Capstan (1) and wrap rope counter-clock-
wise. Ensure 18-Volt drill is in FORWARD and payoff like most
conventional wire pullers.
Fig 5 Fig 6
C. When pulling from the side, wrap rope around Capstan (1)
across the top of the Capstan (1) wrap the rope in a clockwise
direction multiple times and switch the 18-Volt drill into
REVERSE and payoff like most conventional wire pullers.

SETUP AND OPERATION SETUP AND OPERATION
Fig 10 Fig 11
PULLING INSTRUCTIONS (OPERATION)
1. Place Front Roller Payoff (7) against edge of conduit or pull box
(Fig 10), the use of the removable Conduit Adaptor (8) (Fig 11) can
be used to lock in the puller around small size conduits, use of the
notch cut out on the Front Roller Payoff (7) bracket that will allow
user to lock in the Front Extension (6) against the edge of most
conduit or panel boxes. Start puller by pressing trigger on 18-Volt
drill. Drill motor will work in forward or reverse dependent on direc-
tion of wrap of rope on the Capstan (1). Start hand drill motor slowly
to take up any slack before pulling in high speed.
2. The Front Extension (6) can be lengthened by removing the front
pin and sliding out the extension. Reinstall pin to secure Front
Extension (6). This will lengthen the puller an additional 6” (Fig 12
and 13).
3. Use of HIGH-SPEED setting on hand drills can be used on pulls
where lower-tensions are anticipated. Longer higher-tension pulls
should use LOW- SPEED setting on hand drill to prevent the unwar-
ranted wear and tear on drill motor.
4. If rope slippage occurs on the Capstan (1), stop puller and add
additional wraps to the Capstan (1) to increase friction and decrease
slippage.
5. For long underground pulls, the addition of a cut and threaded
piece of ¾” rigid conduit can be threaded into the bottom of the
Gear Box (4) for added support (Fig 14).
6. Capstan (1) can be removed to help facilitate removal of
polyline/mule tape. With a firm grip on Capstan (1), pull away from
Gear Box (4). This feature can be used when Capstan (1) is full and
the removal and replacement of a second Capstan (1) can be start-
ed. With new Capstan (1) in hand align the index pin on Gear Box
Output shaft with notches on underside of Capstan (1) and press
Capstan (1) firmly towards Gear Box (4) until seated. Refer to
POLYLINE/MULE TAPE SETUP Section A for setup instructions.

TROUBLESHOOTING SPECIFICATIONS
1. If Capstan (1) fails to turn, ensure ample battery supply to the
hand drill is available.
2. Check drill hand chuck for tightness before every use to ensure
there is no slippage on the Input Shaft Chuck Adaptor (3).
3. If drill is in motion and Capstan (1) does not pull rope, ensure
indexing pin on gear box output shaft is aligned with groove in
Capstan (1). Rotate and push Capstan (1) towards Gear Box (4) to
lock into place.
MAINTENANCE
1. Gear box (4) is filled with high temperature lubricating grease,
no maintenance of the gear box is required.
2. Input Shaft Chuck Adaptor (3) is equipped with a three sided
harden steel extension. If for any reason this shaft is worn down
or stripped, call your local distributer or Southwire Tools and
Equipment for a replacement.
3. Routinely inspect all aspects of XD1 puller to ensure puller is
in proper working order prior to usage. If parts are missing or
broken, Do Not Use, have puller serviced at an authorized
Southwire Repair Center.
