Workplace context: Construction sites, project offices, client sites and approved work locations.
What makes this role different
Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering stored energy and winch safety. Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering cable and duct identification. Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering communication across long routes. Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering force and damage records. Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering site rules.
Not a fit / obtain specialist advice
Recheck the role or obtain appropriate advice if the work would exceed these maintained authority boundaries: The puller may operate within specified force and method. Exceeded tension, changed route, unproved duct and equipment substitution require the cable or site supervisor. Obtain approval before committing expenditure, changing contractual commitments or making regulated or staffing decisions outside the assigned role.
What to prepare before you issue it
the cable types, ducts, bores and installation distances covered
the sites, travel, shift and call-out arrangements
the winch, drum, signalling and stored-energy competence required
the equipment, force monitoring, PPE and communications provided
the pull limits, bend radii and damage-inspection requirements
the supervisor authorising route, equipment and restart decisions
Day-to-day operating brief
What Cable Puller (Trenchless) work looks like in practice
A trenchless cable puller installs cables through ducts or bores using winches, rollers and monitored pulling forces. The contract should cover duct proving, cable identity, exclusion zones, stored energy and limits on tension and bend radius.
Responsibilities reflected in the contract
Verify duct route, cable identity, length and pull plan before setup.
Inspect and position winches, ropes, swivels, rollers and monitoring equipment.
Maintain exclusions around tensioned lines, drums and stored-energy zones.
Coordinate start, stop and speed through the agreed communication system.
Monitor pulling force, cable travel, markers and abnormal movement.
Protect cable ends and record force events, damage checks and completion.
A realistic working scenario
Pulling force rises sharply before the cable reaches the planned marker. The operator stops the winch, secures stored energy and asks the supervisor to investigate duct, roller and alignment conditions before restarting.

Timeline, reminders and audit
Each workflow keeps the case history, source context, reminders, documents and completion summary together.
Stop and investigate through the approved method; continuing may damage cable, duct or equipment.
What should a pull record show?
Record cable and route identity, equipment, force or tension information, stops, abnormalities, damage checks and final handover.
Can a cable pull begin before the duct is proved?
Only where the approved method expressly establishes equivalent readiness; an uncertain or obstructed route should be investigated before risking the cable.
Who sets the maximum pulling tension?
The authorised cable or engineering information should define limits for the cable, pulling head and route; the operator must not invent a higher value onsite.
What happens when voice communication is lost mid-pull?
Use the planned stop procedure, secure the system and restore reliable communication before movement resumes across the separated work locations.
Can a different winch rope be substituted?
Not without confirming rating, condition, compatibility, connections and method approval for the expected load and route.
How should a pulling-force spike be recorded?
Capture the cable and route position, force, duration, equipment response, stop and inspection findings so the authorised person can decide whether to continue.
Who accepts the cable after the pull?
The project should identify the person reviewing end condition, identification, length or marker, force record, damage checks and protection before handover.
