Being new to the use of grips along with wire rope I thought I would 
ask if there is a way to install the wire rope in the grips and not 
have one or more of the strans showing on the outside.  After several 
tries I can finally get the rope installed but I know I must be doing 
something wrong.  Any Suggestions!!!  Also I was wondering just what 
the two red bands on the grip are for?  I would suspect that they mark 
the point were the wire rope is insterted into the grip.  I know these 
are some very simple questions but the Rohn instructions do not say 
very much on the use of the grip.
