Smooth ICE/Flavored ICE Cover Installation
SAMSON SPLICING INSTRUCTIONS
Pull the Ice cover out of the rope until Mark 2 on the cover is exposed. Unbraid the cover
from the end back to Mark 2. Angle cut the strands from Mark 2 to the end of the cover
to perform a taper.
At the point the cover is inserted in the rope, milk the rope down
toward the end of the tapered cover strands. This will cause the
cover strands to become buried into the rope and disappear.
Whip from the area where the cover is inserted into the rope to
just beyond the lock stitching to nish that portion of the splice.
Opposite end: remove feed line and secure the rope to a xed
point. Milk the cover toward the rope end/bitter end to eliminate
any slack between the cover and the rope.
Lock stitch and whip the cover to the rope.
(See page 3 for tips on lock stitching and whipping.)
