The object is to remove the cord loop from the figure. This puzzle belong to a large and prolific family. Except from same clever disigns or same bizarre enhancements, they all are solved nearly the same way.

The loop in the 'green position' is easy to remove, at blue and yellow postion is harder, and at red position is the hardest.

See also The Lamp for a topologically equivalent.
