
Check carefully inside the hole of each hold to see if there is a washer present in order to select the proper bolt (see
picture at left). Place the bolt in the hold, through the wall, and into the t-nut. Tighten with an allen wrench until the
hold is snug and does not spin. Use caution as over tightening may result in hold breakage, especially with smaller
holds.

The hand-holds are color coded to make instruction easier and to help design climbing “routes” by order of difficulty.
The GREEN
handholds are the easiest. YELLOW is intermediate, and RED is the most challenging. The orienta-
tion of the handholds can also make a difference - an easy handhold, turned sideways or upside down, may become
more difficult. This allows for a tremen-
dous number of different motor planning
challenges. Adjust them however it fits
your situation. You can even keep a
“map” of your handholds by client, so
they can gauge their progress over the
same route.
LOCKING THE PANELS IN THE VERTI-
CAL POSITION:

The panels can be used in a vertical
position, or the bottom will slide out to a
sloped position for clients who lack suffi-
cient strength to hold on to a vertical
surface.
Note: the panels are locked in
the vertical position with two 3/8 x 1-
3/4” flat head screws in the middle panel. (See figure 4). These screws must be in place and engage the lock-
ing nuts on the inside channel when using the panels in the vertical position. Failure to observe this could
result in injury if the panel were to slide out while in use.

To use the panels in the sloped configuration, remove the two screws, grasp the bottom panel and slide it out. The
panels will roll on the wheels and stop in the proper position.
Always make sure that the panels are pulled completely
out before using in the sloped configuration. Put the two bolts that were removed in a safe place out of the
reach of clients.
MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST:
All of the following wear points should be checked as indicated and recorded on the checklist enclosed.
Weekly:

All hand-holds MUST be checked and tightened on a daily or weekly basis, depending on the frequency of
use. These holds WILL loosen with frequent use and with changes in humidity.

Check the bolts holding the wood panels to the strut system on a weekly basis. Tighten when necessary.
Monthly:

On a monthly basis, the toggle screws holding the horizontal strut pieces to the wall should be checked for
tightness, and tightened if loose. Likewise, the bolts holding the upright strut pieces to the horizontal strut
should be checked and tightened if necessary. You will have to remove the wooden climbing surfaces in or-
der to check this.

Check the wheels to see that they roll freely. Remove any lint or hair that may be clogging it. Check that the
“axle” of the wheel is tight. Tighten if necessary

Check the shoulder bolt of the slide mechanism at the top of the strut pieces. If the shoulder bolts are loose,
tighten before continuing use.

Check for cracked or broken hand-holds. In the unlikely event that one breaks or cracks, discontinue use
immediately

Check the wood surface and edges for splinters. If found, discontinue use until repaired. You may repair it
by sanding the area smooth with a medium grit sandpaper, and applying two coats of clear lacquer to the re-
paired area.
STORAGE PROCEDURES:

Keep hex wrenches in a safe location, out of the reach of clients
Correct bolt usage:
Holds with washer Holds without washer
Each bolt only needs to clear the hold by 3/4” max.
