Use a connector in the bottom hole as a precaution

Note that with the PRO TRAXION P51A, it is not necessary to use a connector in the secondary connection hole to lock the sideplates. The safety catch on the side plate serves this function, with a red indicator showing if it is not properly locked.

Nevertheless, in certain situations, the use of a connector in the lower hole is recommended as a precaution:

- Pulley installed on a movable anchor, with risk of rubbing against rock or a surface that could damage the safety catch.

- Pulley installed out of sight of the user.
