WARNING! ADULT
SPEED TEST REQUIRED -
The zipline course speed
should be tested using a
250 Lbs (113 Kg) weight
hung from the trolley to
check course speed.
5. MANDATORY TESTING
When your course setup is complete, before rider takes the first ride, you MUST perform 2 important
tests.
A - Stress Load Test:
Test your installation at 5 Ft. (152 Cm) from each end of the cable, one of 2 ways
• Suspend 250 Lbs (113 Kg) from the rope attached to the trolley
OR
• Throw a rope over the cable and have a 250 Lbs (113 Kg) person lift their weight off the ground.
Note: Look and listen for any issues. This will ensure that the attachment structure and cabling is stable
and secure.
DO NOT EXCEED 250 LBS (113 KG) FOR THE TEST.
B - Course Speed Test:
• The test weight should never hit the finish point U-Clamps!
• With the 250 Lbs (113 Kg) weight attached to the trolley, launch the trolley down the course. The test
weight should slow down past the midpoint as the sag or dip in the cable comes into play. It should
continue to slow down and come to a gentle stop just short of the first U-Clamp. If the test weight hits the
U-Clamp, adjust the cable tension (loosen the U-Clamp and pull tighter), or if more speed reduction is
required, adjust attachment heights: raise Finish Point or lower Start Point. BE SAFE, NOT FAST!
• REPEAT TEST 5 TIMES! This test helps stretch out the cable.
Note: Weight should not drag on the ground at any point during the test.
