Outdoor Zipline Trolley
Product Information
This product is a zipline trolley designed for outdoor use. It
has a capacity of 330 lbs and can accommodate two persons. The
product comes with a cable sling, turnbuckle, main cable, U-clamps,
and a spring brake. The product requires assembly using tools such
as Y-type socket key, L-type socket wrench M8/M10/M12, and M13
wrench.
Guidelines for Use: Inspection and Maintenance
The product needs regular inspection and maintenance to ensure
safety and minimize the risk of accidents. The frequency of
inspection and maintenance will vary based on equipment type, usage
level, location, age, etc. Routine visual inspection should be
performed weekly to monthly, operational inspection every 1 to 3
months, and annual inspection 1 to 2 times per year. During
inspections, users should check all parts of the product for
missing parts, excessive wear, rust, corrosion, and proper
tensioning. Special attention should be paid to cable tensioners,
cable spanner, and trolley.
Instructions for Cable Height
The zipline trolley should be assembled correctly and safely by
following the height requirements. One end of the cable must be
mounted at a higher level than the other end. The heights depend on
the user’s height and the distance between the fixing points. To
determine the right heights, users should follow these steps:
- Measure the height of the user. If there is more than one user,
use the height of the tallest user if the difference in height is
less than 15 cm. If the difference is more than 15 cm, adjust the
zipline every time a user’s height is outside the specified
range. - Add 75 cm to the measured height of the user and mark this
point on the tree or construction frame. - Measure the distance between the two fixing points. Determine
the corresponding height in the table provided in the manual and
mark this height on the tree or construction frame at the other
side.
