绞盘合成绳的护理（SYNTHETIC ROPE CARE）
合成绳护理不同于钢丝绳护理，为了妥善保养您的合成绳索，您必须了解合成绳索的外观。
Synthetic rope care is different than wire rope care, In order to properly care for your synthetic rope, you must understand the appearance of synthetic rope as it ages.
当合成绳是新的，它具有光滑的表面（a）。当绳索首次使用时，绳索的外部细丝将变粗糙并给绳子略微“模糊”的外观（b）。外部细丝的这种变化产生了更粗糙的绳索表面，实际上有助于保护下面的纤维。当约25％的可见外部纤维表现出磨损时（c），必须更换绳索。
When synthetic rope is new, it has a smooth finish (a.). When the rope is first used, the outer filaments of the rope will roughen and give the rope a slightly, “fuzzy” appearance (b.). This condition of the outer filaments creates a rougher rope surface and actually helps to protect the fibers underneath. Rope must be replaced when approximately 25% of the visible outer fibers exhibit abrasion (c.).
检查内纤维和外纤维。通过将绳子纵向压缩（e）打开绳索，并寻找粉末纤维和绳索的内部磨损迹象。估计内部纤维损耗以评估绳索的整体磨损程度。
Examine both inner and outer fibers. Open the strands of the rope by compressing the rope length-wise (e.) and look for powdered fiber and abrasion- this is a sign of internal wear of the rope. Estimate internal fiber loss to include in your determination of overall abrasion fiber loss of the rope.
绳索中的光泽面（d）可能是两种不同条件的结果。最常见的光泽面是由压缩引起的，如当钢丝绳缠绕在绞车鼓上或通过滑轮组件时。长度方向（e）压缩绳索通常会使绳索更柔软，并开始类似于普通的绳索。如果光泽面部分硬化，这可能是热损伤的征兆，必须更换绳索。
Glossy or glazed areas in the rope (d.) can be the result of two different conditions. The most common form of glossing or glazing is caused by compression, when the rope is wound on the winch drum or through a pulley block. Compressing the rope length-wise (e.) will generally make the rope more pliable and begin to resemble normal rope. If the glazed section remains hardened, this can be a sign of heat damage, and the rope must be replaced. It is your responsibility to exercise proper care to prolong the life of your synthetic winch rope.
减少合成绳索的磨损。每当绳子与岩石或其他物体接触时，请使用可移动的磨损套筒。根据需要向上和向下滑动套管。磨损会减少绳索寿命。
Minimize synthetic rope abrasion. Use the movable abrasion sleeve whenever the rope comes in contact with rocks or other objects. Slide the sleeve up and down the rope as required. Abrasion will reduce rope life.
保持绳索清洁。让泥土和碎屑进入绳索会导致绳索的磨损。
Keep the rope clean. Allowing dirt and debris to enter the rope will lead to abrasion of the rope.
避免绳索尖锐弯曲。绳索中的尖锐弯曲大大降低了其强度，并可能导致绳索损坏或破坏。
Avoid sharp bends. A sharp bend in the rope decreases its strength substantially under load and may cause rope damage or failure.
