Use of chairlifts:
This practical advice does not replace any aspect of the authorizations.
- Prior to take the chairlift, inform the chairlift personnel of your presence. They will
be vigilant and will use the emergency button in the event of an incident.
- Systematically ask to get on at a slow speed, even requesting that it stops if the
chairlift only has 2 places or is unable to go slowly. The speed for getting off the
chairlift mustn’t be higher than the speed for getting on.
- Before getting ready to embark, unlock the frame and loosen the Dualski’s
backrest adjustment strap in order that the seat is comfortable and safe.
- For embarkation, position oneself as follows :
For a chairlift with 2 places: on one of the 2 places.
For a chairlift with 3 places: on the middle place.
For a chairlift with 4 places or more: on one of the middle places. The footrest
bars of the seat’s safety rail are mainly positioned every 2 places. In any
event, do not position the Dualski between 2 places where the footrests of the
seat’s safety rail are likely to obstruct. This should be imperatively entirely
folded down.
- Lift the Dualski seat and get on with the help of an accompanist if necessary.
Close the safety rail as quickly as possible.
- When arriving, raise the safety rail at the last moment and be assisted by the
helper when getting off, if necessary, so as to get clear as quickly as possible.
- The blocks fixed to the stabilizers (optional) facilitate to go off the chairlift. They
allow a good support on the seat of the chairlift to push forward in an efficient
way.
- Think to lock back the frame and tighten the backrest’s adjustment strap before
going onto the piste.
