Step 5. Mount Slider Pulley to Slider Slackline
•
Place Slider Pulley over the top of the slackline.
•
Make sure the longer side of the Slider Pulley hangs below the webbing line. See picture below.
•
Secure the Triangle Carabiner onto the Slider Pulley by threading it through the hole in each of the
pulley side plates. Triangle Carabiner must pass through both side plate holes or it may fall off which
may result in serious injury or death.
•
Ensure Triangle Carabiner is oriented with the short side through the pulley as shown in the picture.
•
Attach the metal loops of the swing to the Triangle Carabiner and lock the securing nut closed.
Step 6. Mandatory load stress test
•
Make sure all connections are tight and secure.
•
Bystanders should maintain a safe distance from the line, at least 10 feet at all times.
•
Using either a 250 lb person or weight, test the line by suspending weight 5 feet from each end.
•
Watch for line dipping, or slipping around anchor trees. Tighten line if necessary.
Step 7. It’s Slider Time!
•
Have fun, but make sure users do not get too much speed. Be safe, go slow.
Step 8. Releasing the line
•
Unlock the ratchet handle by pulling the release lever firmly and opening the ratchet.
•
Fully open the ratchet by pulling the release lever and firmly press the ratchet handle open until the
line snaps loose. A popping sound can be heard.
•
Take down the line at the end of the play season, when temperature drops below freezing, or when
not in use for long periods.
•
Store pulley inside to prevent unauthorized use, prevent rust, and maximize its useful life.
