Assembly
1. Mark the correct height on both fixing points according to the explanation in the above paragraph ‘Instructions for
cable height’.
2. Create a loop by wrapping the short cable B (the one with 2 loops at the end) around the tree / construction.
3. Turn the ends of the cable spanner and open the device as far as possible.
4. Attach the cable spanner to the loop around the tree / construction.
5. Pull the other end of the cable till it reaches the other fixing point. Tension the cable, make a loop around the fixing
point, position the cable tensioner, pull the cable as tight as possible, and close the cable tensioner. Please take care that
the cable tensioners are not positioned too close to the tree / construction
(see illustration II)
.
6. Turn the cable spanner at the other fixing point, till the cable is tensioned at its maximum. If the cable is not suf
-
ficiently tensioned, loosen the cable tensioner at the second fixing point, reopen the cable spanner and repeat the steps
from point 5.
7. Cut the cable with sharp pliers. Apply cellar tape to the loose end of the cable to ensure that all wires of the cable
remain together.
8. Pull the rubber sleeve over the cable spanner and place the nut caps.
For further assembly see back of the manual.
Guidelines for use
1. Always start from a secure and stable platform.
2. Always hold the trolley firmly with both hands (or hold on tight to the rope of the monkey swing if applicable).
3. Release the trolley only when it has reached complete standstill, and feet can be placed onto the ground/platform.
4. Always use the product under supervision of an adult.
5. Always check the structure, fixings, trolley, cable tensioners, cable spanner and cable before using the zip wire.
6. Do not allow children under, next to or in the neighbourhood of the construction when it is in use.
7. Do not wear loose fitting clothing (ponchos, scarfs,…) when using the zip wire. This can be dangerous because of
entrapment risk.
8. Do not use the zip wire when the construction and the trolley are wet.
9. Only the KBT monkey seat with special D-shackle is permitted to be attached to the trolley of the zip wire. The use of
any other seats, ropes…. is considered as inappropriate use and is deemed to be dangerous.
Inspection and maintenance
The frequency of inspection and maintenance will vary with the type of equipement or materials used or other factors
(e.g. heavy use, levels of vandalisme, coastal location, air pollution, age of equipment, ...). All parts of the product need
to be checked regularly by the user to minimise the risk of accidents. Special attention should be paid to the cable ten-
sioners, cable spanner and trolley.
Routine visual inspection (weekly to monthly)
- Always check that the bolts and nuts are securely fastened.
- Check the shock absorbing surface for objects that don’t belong there.
- Check for missing parts.
- Check the equipment ground clearances.
Operational inspection (1 to 3 months)
- Check the stability of the construction.
- Check every part for excessive wair and remove when necessary.
Annual inspection (1 up to 2 times per year)
- Check for rust and corrosion.
- Check every part for excessive wair and remove when necessary.
