The first support surface has a first channel extending substantially axially therethrough and a plurality of first slots extending away from a distal end thereof through at least a portion of the first support surface. A plurality of increased diameter abutting portions define a plurality of segments of a pull line extending through the slots with each of the abutting portions being retained within the channel by contact with a corresponding one of the slots. Each of the segments loops around a corresponding one of the ligating bands to releasably couple the pull line to the ligating bands.
