All products manufactured and sold by Straightpoint Ltd, are sold with the express understanding that the purchaser and user are thoroughly familiar with the safe use, proper care, and application of the product.
Responsibility for the safe use, proper care, and application of the product rests with the user.
Failure of the product can occur due to misapplication, abuse, overloading, or improper care and maintenance.
There are numerous government and industry standards that cover products manufactured and sold by Straightpoint Ltd. This document makes no attempt to reference all of them. We do reference standards that are most current like ASME B30.26-2010 “detachable load indicating devices.”
Ratings shown in Straightpoint Ltd literature are only applicable to new or “as new condition” products.
Rated capacities define the greatest force or load a product can carry under usual or normal environmental conditions. Shock loading and extraordinary conditions must be taken into account when selecting products and production capacity.
Some of the products in the Straightpoint Ltd catalogs are designed for use with rigging hardware and components which could be supplied from several different manufacturers. It is crucial that you read and understand the literature from these manufacturers, as well as governmental standards and industry technical manuals.
The rated capacity, design factor, and efficiency rating of each Straightpoint Ltd product may be affected by wear, misuse, overloading, corrosion, deformation, intentional alteration, age, and other use conditions.
The recommended proof load on all items manufactured and sold by Straightpoint Ltd is twice the working load limit (WLL) unless otherwise shown. Proof testing is included on all Straightpoint Ltd load-indicating products.

The CableSafe is used in conjunction with other equipment and running cable or synthetic ropes.
Only qualified personnel should install the product.
This manual presumes the operator is qualified to rig and work with cable or synthetic in all situations.
Make sure the cable or synthetic rope diameter and expected tension are suitable for the model of CableSafe you are using – if in doubt do not proceed and take advice.
This product is designed to measure the load on a wire rope to a maximum speed of 50 meters per minute – check cable or synthetic rope speeds – if in doubt do not proceed and take advice.

  • Check the CableSafe for any visual fractures, wear, or deformation.
  • The sheave have needle roller bearings but the movement of the sheave on the axle should be checked and should be less than 1mm
  • The cable or synthetic rope must be in the sheave and the CableSafe should be firmly attached to its mounting points
  • Avoid installing in areas affected by strong vibrations.
  • Make sure that the user keeps a good overview of the work area.
  • Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) at all times.

CableSafe installation

A fixing method needs to be found for each individual CableSafe before it is rigged. The CableSafe needs to be fixed in such a way, that it is kept as vertical as possible.
The fixing method could be by bolting down 1 or by chains or by wire attached to the shackles on the CableSafe 2. Figure 3 shows how to attach shackles. If an articulated arm is required, please contact your local Straightpoint partner for more information. The chosen method depends on the possibilities and the surroundings on your worksite.

Setting up the CableSafe

To rig the CableSafe, the cable or synthetic rope that is to be measured must be in a slack rope condition. Once the CableSafe is anchored or fixed in place remove both top sheaves 1. Take care not to trap fingers when removing the sheaves 2. Wear appropriate PPE.

Next, lay the synthetic rope or cable through the CableSafe onto the lower three sheaves.

Now, refit the sheaves. Put the handle/axle back in position and secure it with the lynch pin, as shown above.

CableSafe works on Bluetooth low energy. 4 x AA batteries to be fitted here 1.
Remove the cover of the blue box, using a flat blade screwdriver on the screw located in the center of the disc.
Fit batteries and refit cover.
Warning: Make sure the batteries are fitted correctly and the polarity is correct (see fig on next page).

CableSafe measuring a load

You can now apply load.
Apply loads slowly and avoid shock loads, make sure the maximum wire rope speed is not exceeded.
If any unexpected readings are encountered stop the cable or synthetic rope and inspect your complete setup for any problems.

Product aftercare

These devices are sealed to IP67/NEMA6 standards.
The effects of solvent on the device can not be guaranteed, and should therefore be avoided. Avoid use within 20-30 minutes of rapid changes in temperature, for example moving the device from a cold vehicle into a warm room. The change in temperature can affect the accuracy of the device. The operating temperature is -10 to +50° C or 14 to 122° F. Should the display show “Overload” remove the load immediately as this indicates an overload situation. Check that the load applied is within the working load limit of the device. If it continues to display overload, contact your supplier.

Service and calibration

These products are supplied with a certificate of calibration which is valid for one year. After this date, it is recommended the device is recalibrated by Straightpoint or an approved calibration laboratory. Contact the Straightpoint service department or your supplier for more information. In the unlikely event of this device failing, fit new batteries and re-test. Only when this has been done should you contact your supplier to report the fault. When reporting the fault it is important to give a full description of the problem and the type of application the device is being used for.
