A rope output guide member is provided for maintaining the rope in engagement with the pulley wheel an attachment mechanism for attaching an external load. The attachment mechanism comprises a rope entry guide member for supporting a rope as it enters the apparatus, so as to provide a fulcrum point about which the mass of the apparatus exerts a first moment. The attachment mechanism further comprises a seat member for supporting the load. The seat member is held remote from the main body such that the load, when mounted thereon exerts a second, opposed moment about the fulcrum.
