Standard Releasing Spear : Size H
Assembly
With left-hand rotation, screw the grapple onto the mandrel from the lower pin end. Slip the release ring onto the mandrel and make up the nut to the mandrel aligning the cams. Screw the grapple down the mandrel against the release ring until hand tight. The Spear Assembly is now in its run-in position.
Engaging the Fish
The Releasing Spear is made up to the bottom of the fishing string and lowered to the desired depth into the fish. Rotate the mandrel one full turn to the left to turn the mandrel through the grapple and move the grapple into engaging position. Pulling straight up will cause the tapers on the mandrel to expand the grapple and allow it to positively engage the fish.
Releasing the Fish
To release the fish, bump down and then make two to three rotations to the right. This right hand rotation allows the mandrel to move up through the grapple thereby placing the grapple against the release ring and putting the spear in release position A straight upward pull will release the spear from the fish. Continue with slow, right-hand rotation when coming out of the fish.
