Guidelines for Use: Inspection and Maintenance

The frequency of inspection and maintenance will vary with the type of equipment or materials used or other factors (e.g. heavy use, levels of vandalism, coastal location, air pollution, age of equipment). All parts of the product need to be checked regularly by the user to minimize the risk of accidents. Special attention should be paid to the cable tensioners, cable spanner, and trolley.

Routine visual inspection (weekly to monthly):

Always check that the bolts and nuts are securely fastened.

  • Check the shock-absorbing surface for objects that don’t belong there.
  • Check for missing parts.
  • Check the equipment ground clearances.

Operational inspection (1 to 3 months):

  • Check the stability of the construction.
  • Check every part for excessive wear and remove when necessary.

Annual inspection (1 up to 2 times per year):

  • Check for rust and corrosion.
  • Check every part for excessive wear and remove when necessary.

Instructions for Cable Height

In order to assemble the zip wire correctly and safely, the following height requirements need to be followed. One end of the cable must be mounted at a higher level than the other end. These heights are dependent on the height of the user and the distance between the fixing points. In order to determine the right heights, the following steps must be followed:

  1. Measure the height of the user. If there is more than one user, and the difference in height is less than 15 cm, use the height of the tallest user. If the difference is more than 15 cm, the zip wire needs to be adjusted every time the user’s height is outside the specified range.
  2. Add 75 cm to the measured height of the user and mark this point on the tree or construction frame.
  3. Measure the distance between the 2 fixing points. Determine the corresponding height in the following table and mark this height on the tree/construction at the other side.
Height User Height Lowest Fixing Point (x) Minimum Highest Right Wrong
1.2m 1.4m 2.9m 2.75m
1.5m 1.7m 3.0m 2.9m
1.8m 2.0m 3.2m 3.0m
2.1m 3.35m 3.2m
2.3m 3.5m 3.35m

Product Usage Instructions

  1. Step 1:
    Wrap the cable sling around the tree. Pass the looped ends of the cable sling through the turnbuckle. Use the M13 wrench to fix one end and use Y-type socket key M12 to tighten the turnbuckle’s screws. Both ends are fixed in the same way.

  2. Step 2:
    Pass the main cable through the zipline trolley and spring brake.

  3. Step 3:
    Follow the instructions for cable height to determine the correct height for mounting the other end of the cable.

  4. Step 4:
    Repeat Step 1 to secure the other end of the cable.

  5. Step 5:
    Attach any optional accessories as desired.

Note : Always perform routine visual inspections and operational inspections before each use to ensure safety and minimize accidents.

GUIDELINES FOR USE

  1. Always start from a secure and stable platform.
  2. Always hold the trolley firmly with both hands (or hold on tight to the rope of the monkey swing if applicable).
  3. Release the trolley only when it has reached a complete standstill, and feet can be placed onto the ground/platform.
  4. Always use the product under the supervision of an adult.
  5. Always check the structure, fixings, trolley, cable tensioners, cable spanner, and cable before using the zip wire.
  6. Do not allow children under, next to, or in the neighborhood of the construction when it is in use.
  7. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing (ponchos, scarfs…) when using the zip wire. This can be dangerous because of the entrapment risk.
  8. Do not use the zip wire when the construction and the trolley are wet.
  9. Only the KBT monkey seat with a special D-shackle is permitted to be attached to the trolley of the zip wire. The use of any other seats, ropes…. is considered as inappropriate use and is deemed to be dangerous.
