Attach the Emergency Release
Rope and Handle
• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the
top of the red handle so “

up as shown. Secure with an overhand knot at
least 1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the rope to
prevent slipping.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the hole
in the release arm of the outer trolley.
• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet (1.83 m)
above the floor. Ensure that the rope and handle
clear the tops of all vehicles to avoid
entanglement. Secure with an overhand knot.
NOTE:
If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal
the cut end with a match or lighter to prevent
unraveling.
