The zipSTOP Brake Unit and Braking Line, Brake Trolley, Redirection Line and associated hardware must be in-
spected on a daily basis for condition and correct operation. The single most important aspect of safe zip line
operation is a daily inspection. Example log sheets are included in Section "Appendix C: Example Inspection
Logs".
Carry out the following inspections on a daily basis:
1.
Visually inspect the zipSTOP Brake Unit for damage, corrosion, and loose fittings and fasteners.
2. Inspect the zipSTOP Brake Unit mounting bracket and pins for damage and ensure that it remains se-
cured correctly.
3. Fully extend the Braking Line from the zipSTOP Brake Unit. Check the line condition for damage or
discoloration. If worn or damaged, replace with a new Braking Line assembly.
4. Check that the Braking Line extension and retraction is smooth and maintains good resistance to ex-
tension throughout its range.
5. Check the Brake Trolley Bump Stops are secure and free from damage or wear.
6. Check the Brake Trolley operates smoothly throughout its operating range and that it correctly resets to
the start of the Arrest Zone.
7.
Inspect the Redirection Line and pulleys for freedom of movement. Inspect overall condition of line,
and ensure it is in a safe and serviceable condition. Replace if necessary.
8. Check that all Redirection Line knots and terminations are secure. Check that all Quick Links and Cara-
biner Gates are locked and secure.
9. Inspect all Redirection pulleys are secure and ensure they are free from damage. Check that pulley
wheels operate smoothly and without excessive play.
10. Check that the Redirection Line operation is smooth and line is free from wear, damage, tangles and
snagging from foreign objects.
