No words. Just simple, step-by-step how-to content. This Tech Team Express Video shows you how to adjust the engage point on Harken Ratchamatic Blocks. To increase or decrease the load at which the ratchet engages, first, move the sheave so the hole in the sheave’s groove is at the bottom of the block. Insert a 2.5 mm Allen wrench and turn clockwise to engage at higher loads and counterclockwise for lighter loads. You will need to remove the becket before adjusting if it is a becket block.
