How to replace rope & snap hooks on an existing in-ground flagpole

Step 1: Determine which side of the rope to cut.

1. Examine the rope. Choose the side of rope which is free of knots and snap hooks that could prevent you from pulling the old rope through the pulley at the top of the pole.

Step 2: Cut the old rope.

1. Cut the old rope on the side without snap hooks, knots, or other encumbrances. Be sure to hold each end of the cut rope tightly. You don’t want the rope to fly up the pole and out of the pulley.

Step 3: Attach new rope to the old.

1. Using duct tape, securely attach one end of the new rope to one end of the old. Make sure your rope will still flow freely through the pulley.

Step 4: Replace old rope with the new rope.

1. Pull the other side of the old rope so it pulls the new rope up the pole and through the pulley.
2. Once the new rope is through the pulley and back down to you, cut the old rope loose. Keep hold of the two pieces of rope. Note: Burning the ends of the new rope will prevent the rope from fraying.
3. Tie the ends of the new rope together. One square knot and two half hitches will work nicely.
4. Anchor the new rope to the pole by wrapping several times around a cleat.

Snap hook installation on rope:

     Step 1: Determine where to install the snap hooks.

1. For a new flag: Measure the distance between the grommets on your flag. This will be the same distance between the snap hooks on the rope.

2. Replacing old snap hooks: First, make sure any knots or other rope flaws that would prevent the rope from threading through the pulley are at the bottom of the rope circle and the snap hooks are close to the top. Lower the flag and put the new snap in approximately the same location as the old snap hooks.

     Step 2: Thread the snap hooks.

1. Slip a loop through the eye of the snap hook.

2. Put the loop over the top of the snap hook & draw rope tight.

         Please read through the entire set of instructions before you begin. You will need duct
         tape and steel wire crimps.
 

     Step 1: Determine which side of the rope to cut.
 

1. Examine the rope. Choose the side of rope which is free of knots and snap hooks that could prevent you from pulling the old rope through the pulley at the top of the pole.
    

     Step 2: Cut the old rope.

A. Using duct tape, securely attach one end of the new rope to one end of the old. Make sure your rope will still flow freely through the pulley.

A: Pull the other side of the old rope so it pulls the new rope up the pole and through the pulley.

B: Once the new rope is through the pulley and back down to you, cut the old rope loose. Keep hold of the two pieces of rope. Note: Burning the ends of the new rope will prevent the rope from fraying.
 

C: Using the wire steel rope crimp, thread both ends of the rope through the opening (see right) leaving about 2 inches of rope overlapping through the crimp. Screw down to tighten.
 

D: Anchor the new rope to the pole by wrapping several times around a cleat.

     1. Unscrew bottom from crimp and place snap
         hook on u-shaped bar.
     2. Replace bottom on crimp and thread rope
         through hole.
     3. Tighten screws until the rope is fastened    
         securely in between snap hook and crimp.
