Introduction

The ME-9448B Super Pulley with Clamp is designed to be
used wherever an integral clamp that features the low fric-
tion characteristics of the PASCO Super Pulley is needed.
The clamp has two positions for attaching the Super Pulley.
The pulley can be moved from one position to the other by

Once the pulley is in the desired position, replace the thumb-

keep strings as close and parallel to the surface of the table as
possible. See Figure 1..

Strings should also remain parallel when using the Super

that might be used for demonstration. See Figure 2.
