IMPORTANT! The slackline must not exceed
two and a half rotations around the axle of the
ratchet.
The tension on the lever of the ratchet
must NEVER exceed 85 pounds (approx
378N/38.5kg) to prevent seizure and/or failure
of the system that may result in serious injury
and/or death.
As soon as the band reaches the desired ten-
sion, check the ratchet to ensure that the bolt
("G" in Image 10 & 11) rests neatly in the cogging
("H" in Image 10 & 11) and bring the lever back
up to a horizontal position parallel to the band
("I" in Image 11).
DO NOT USE THE SLACKLINE IF THE RATCH-
ET IS NOT FULLY SECURED AND LOCKED
(UNLOCKED: Image 10; LOCKED: Image 11)!
Tip: The closed lever ("I" in Image 11) is a good
indicator that the bolt rests in the cogging and
that the ratchet is secured and locked.
You may adjust the tension of the band accord-
ing to your personal preference, so long as the
tension does not exceed 85 pounds
(378N/38.5 kg).
ABRASION:
Protect the band from unnecessary abrasion,
sharp edges, and any other rough places. In-
spect the Slackline before and after each use
and if abrasion is discovered, stop using the
Slackline.
Do not ever twist the band. (See Image 12 be-
low.) Twisting causes the ratchet to flip over
to the top of the band and you can be injured
more easily. Twisting also accelerates abra-
sion of the band.
APPLYING THE RATCHET PROTECTION:
(not included in Surfer Line X13 sets)
Once the Slackline has been tensioned cor-
rectly and the ratchet lever closed, wrap the
ratchet protection (J) around the ratchet and
seal with the velcro and push buttons.
