The Tifor Principle
The principle may be described as "hand-to-hand", like a sailor pulling on a rope. While one hand pulls the other changes
position to pull in turn. The two hands represent the 2 jaws of the Tirfor. They grip the wire rope without damaging it,
and alternatively pull it during forward opeation. The effort is transfered to the jaws by two levers; one for forward
operating and the other for reverse operation. The load is held securely at all times.
