Do not touch if the load is moving!
Are both securing pins on the climbing
shoe completely inserted downwards and
is the locking spring fixed in position?
Opening of the climbing shoe
– makes it easier to insert the climbing
rail (9) during climbing,
– allows the insertion of the climbing rail
during the initial assembly.
Dismantling the climbing shoe
Pull the opened climbing shoe between
the climbing rail (9) and wall first up-
wards and then sideways, see Instruc-
tions for Assembly and Use for the Rail
