Always exercise extreme caution and ensure adult supervision at all times.
Do not attach to diseased or unstable trees. Consult an arborist if unsure.
Product must be tested using 250 lbs (113 kg) at 5 feet from each end.
Inspect and tighten hardware regularly. Replace cable annually.
Essential safety guidelines for setting up and using the zipline.
Select healthy trees with at least 38 inches circumference or 12 inches diameter, 6 feet from ground.
Avoid trees with decay, cracks, or damage. Consult an arborist if unsure of tree health.
Ensure cable reaches both trees with at least 5 feet of extra length at the finish point.
Ensure course is free of obstacles and not on steep hills or over water bodies.
Launch riders from the lowest point, tow them up to the start, then release.
If using a platform, ensure it is stable and strong, and on a level flat surface.
Using zipline without a seat increases risk of rider losing grip. Use caution with height.
Aim for rider acceleration, then deceleration in the last third, finishing near a stop.
Avoid steep courses or high tension to prevent dangerous speeds and injury.
Guidelines for start and end point attachment heights for flat courses based on length.
Adjust attachment heights for sloping courses by subtracting ground level drop from start point height.
Loop the sling cable around the start point tree, ensuring protective tubing is used.
Attach turnbuckle to sling cable, then attach main cable to the other end of the turnbuckle.
Unwind course cable, ensuring no twists, and thread it through the trolley.
Install U-clamps to secure the cable at the finish point, forming a 'tear drop' shape.
Product contains small parts. Keep away from children under 3 years of age.
Use a 'tear drop' shaped wrap with U-clamps, ensuring proper spacing and orientation.
Tighten the turnbuckle to make the line nearly level or straight, but do not overtighten.
Remove the small nails used during installation after tightening the zipline.
Test product with 250 lbs (113 kg) at 5 feet from each end of the cable.
Test speed with 250 lbs (113 kg) weight hung from the trolley.
Test by suspending or lifting 250 lbs (113 kg) from the cable to check stability.
Test trolley speed with 250 lbs weight; it should slow and stop before the first U-clamp.
Retighten the zipline with the turnbuckle after the speed test due to cable stretch.
Ensure all nuts, bolts, clamps, turnbuckle, and trolley are tight.
Clear the area of debris and manage excess cable to prevent entanglement.
Verify seat knot security and that trolley grips are not loose or twisted.
Bungee Brake Kit is an optional backup system. Do not use ground stakes for securing.
Ensure only one rider uses the zipline at any given time.
Launch riders from the lowest point, tow them up to the start, then release.
Hold trolley handles tightly while the zipline is in motion.
Mount seat between legs, grab handles, and remain seated; head below trolley.
Wait until completely stopped, grab rope between trolley and seat, then dismount.
Adjust seat height using the figure-8 adjuster so rider's head is below trolley.
Do not let bystanders push riders. Riders need clean, dry hands.
Instruct children to remove bike or sports helmets before using the zipline.
Avoid loose clothing, drawstrings, scarves; do not attach items that can cause strangulation.
