A switching assembly for rope-pulling equipment including mechanisms for holding an electrically-operated power tool for rotating a capstan about an axis and which power tool includes a depressible ON/OFF switch utilizes an actuator having a switch-engaging portion which is mounted for pivotal movement between a first condition at which the switch of the power tool is in an OFF position and a second condition at which the switch of the power tool is depressed by the switch-engaging portion to switch the power tool ON. The actuator further includes a rope-engaging section so that by wrapping a section of rope to be pulled about the capstan, routing an end of the rope about the rope-engaging section and then appropriately pulling upon the end of the rope, the actuator is pivoted from the first to the second condition, and the rope is advanced along the equipment by the rotating capstan.
