Installing and dismantling TOPPAS with the positioning cable
In the normal case, TOPPAS should be installed or dismantled from the secured work position using work or lifting
platform. If this is not possible, use a positioning cable to lift TOPPAS comfortably up to the TOPPAS universal
attachment, position and lock it properly. The same is applicable for dismantling as well.
Prerequisites:
The positioning cable length must be at least 3 times the installation height of TOPPAS. We recommend a slip-
proof mountaineering rope > 9 mm
Another person to lift TOPPAS
Securing against the run-out of the cable using floor-side abutments (e. g. Ascension cable clamp or Basic by
Petzl)
Secured access to the universal attachment for another person
