RS 400 Tack Line

You will have to tie a line to the end of the tack line and pull the tack line from the pole (you may have to cut the outboard knot off), you will also have to take the end cap off and cut the inboard knot off and then pull it from the pulley and scrap and replace the line as you won't be able to undo it.Keep the end that you cut off, push the new line through the pulley now measure where the knots were or Leave extra length after the knot and tape it to your slave line and pull back through the pole and replace your end cap Tie a figure of eight aprox where you think and try the kite. If the kite doesn't go into chute fully you need to move the outboard knot closer to the kite, if the pole doesn't retract fully move the knot closer to the pole.
