The FTC DONUT pulley is used for tree care (felling, dismantling, etc.). It must be used with equipment.(ropes, slings, etc.) and on places of the tree that are compatible in size and resistance to thepulley. It can be used for redirects during tree dismantling works, for rigging or the lowering ofbranch/trunk sections. Only competent people trained in tree care work (felling, dismantling, etc.) should use this device after reading and understanding the instructions and following the manufacturer’s recommendations. Users are solely responsible for setting up a safety plan for the work zone (danger zone), including the people and property around it.

The NZ Arb BPG (Best Practice Guideline) states that the SWL (should be) 10% of the rope's average breaking strength, spliced strength or tensile strength unless otherwise stated by the manufacturer—this means you apply a safety factor of 10:1.
