BEFORE USE
Inspect each hobble strap for any cuts, abrasion or discoloration. Check for proper action of the buckles
and the gates of the hooks.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Hobble straps are an important structural element for the TerrAdaptor. It is critical to understand that the
ultimate strength and security of any configuration depends on preventing the feet from moving by either
hobbling the legs or direct anchoring of the feet (or legs) through bolting, lashing, or other means of
eliminating the possibility of movement of the legs.
After configuring the leg clamp angles and leg lengths of the TerrAdaptor, attach the hobble straps by
clipping each connection hook to an attachment point on the feet. [fig. 1]
If there are not enough connection points available for two
hooks at a foot, connect one hook to available connection
point, and connect the next hook to the eye of the first hook.
[fig. 2]
Adjust the length of the hobble strap by pulling on the tail to
remove the slack between the feet. Repeat this with each of
the hobble straps. For final adjustment, tighten each hobble
strap, until each leg flexes slightly, or in the case of an NFPA
configuration, until the correct hobble length is reached.
Tables included in Section 4 of the TerrAdaptor manual include
the ideal hobble adjustment for the various configurations.
