Does this pulley have to twist to open or does it have slot to insert the cord? I need the twist to open style.

no twist, my curtains are on a traverse rod and I looped the cord through this and just pull the cord to open the curtains.

This Levolor cord tensioner that I purchased has a slot for the cord to slide in onto the roller. It does not seem to twist.

I also thought I had to twist it for a long time, but you don't have to twist it that much. You twist and then it pulls to the length you want.

I had to use a wrench to get it open the first time...don't use the ring to try to twist it off! I bent mine pretty badly!

This is the older one that works. The new twist kind are useless. Hope this helps!

Yes its twist off. Old trick, get a butter knife and tap along the seem. It will open real easy

I am not familiar with the twist, but I do love my Cat and Dog. It works well, but i will say it is a little heavy, but turns easily. I have had mine for 1.5 years and it's still going strong!

Twist it the opposite direction with it extended and it should lock in place

Try to twist is 180 degrees.....push it further in when you try to flip it.

no, it only works with the batteries when you push a button. There is nothing to twist manually

I was about to return mine after pulling and twisting like crazy without being able to unlock it. I gave the ring one last herculean twist/pull and it came undone. It seems that the mechanism that keeps it locked is a bit too tight. Once you get it going, it works great! Good luck!

Dear Amazon Friend, YES ! My cord is certainly a Twist-lock connecting cord. It twist locks onto my generator and it twist locks onto my house mounted service box. Both ends. Not sure why it doesn't specify on this cord ? It is my understanding that all of these types of cords are a TWIST TYPE. But maybe I think that because all cords like this I've ever seen, did use a twist type locking end. Extra side note: This is a heavy duty, top quality made cord. Thick and strong, yet stays flexible in bad weather. I use this 40' cord when the weather is good but the storm has knocked me out. I leave the generator outside. When the weather is bad, like a long term hurricane situation with heavy downpours, I attach another 10' cord to this 40' cord and can then keep my generator under the cover of my carport. This brand cord works so well, I have no problem with the connection between the 2 cords either. They twist easily into each other and seal out the rain. Yes I do like this cord, and I'm picky and checked out many before making my purchase. Good Luck.

I get that twist as well if there is not enough tension on the cable. I keep it tense to the point I have to push down on the weight stack to place the pin. With time the cable stretches a little and I do not have to push down on the stack. The twist stays out from then on. I made the tension increase at several points. I narrowed the space between the double pulley and shortened the chain and tighten the bolt on the stack.

Female end twist locks. The ring tightens the cord quite securely. I think it is one of the better cords out there.

Just to be clear, I assume you are referring to the keyed slot that locks the pulley to the corresponding keyed slot on the motor, and the key being the small rectangular metal piece that "bonds" them. No, that key does not come with the pulley. When I purchased this pulley, I also purchased a new motor, and as luck would have it, that DID in fact come with the key, and was a perfect fit for this pulley. I believe Amazon suggested the two as a match, so just look at the bottom of the screen to see which ones Amazon suggests (if looking for a new motor that is). :)

Ours clicks into place. Each time we use it we switch the handle to the opposite side. Our instructions said to do this. It helps the cord from getting twisted.
