INSTALLATION and ASSEMBLY SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
Please Note: Observing the following statements and warnings reduces the likelihood of serious or fatal injury.
3. Using two (2) of the cable clamps (B) provided with lockwashers and nuts, secure the cable as illustrated below.
Tighten the nuts carefully with a socket wrench (5/16 or 8mm).
Illustration 1:
4. Stretch out the cable and thread the loose end through the trolley just below the wheels and
wrap the end around the other upright.
5. Place one of the remaining cable clamps on the cable as if to secure this end as done in Step 3 and Hand Tighten the nuts.
Using pliers or vise grips, grip the free end of the cable and pull as tight as possible. Slide the cable clamp toward the upright to
secure and pull as tight as possible again. Repeat this process until you feel that you have pulled the cable as tight as possible.
Tighten the nuts on the cable clamp carefully with a socket wrench and fully secure the cable with the other cable clamp.
6. Depending upon the length of your Zip Line, you may now have extra cable. This excess should be removed. Wrap both
protruding cable ends with electrical tape to cover sharp or pointed edges. Using a wire cutter or pliers remove any excess wire
protruding beyond 6 inches from the last cable clamp.
Please observe illustration 1. The cable clamps should be 1 and 1/2 upright diameters from the
upright and no closer. Failure to follow this instruction could result in cable damage and increase the
liklihood of serious or fatal injury.
Do not attempt to use mechanical tensioning devices, as they are not necessary and may interfere
with the proper performance of the ride.
7. Obtain a secure platform to place at the starting point of the ride. Place it at the start of the ride and make sure that it cannot tip
in any direction..
8. Now test the ride. You should stop a short distance before reaching the other end. If you stop considerably short, then you
probably have too much tension in the cable and should loosen the cable slightly. If you come too close to the ground, then you
may have too little tension and should tighten the cable slightly.
Your ZL35 is now ready for use and enjoyment.
