Anchoring points

We recommend placing the anchoring points during summer. Cable anchoring must meet the ap-
plicable safety regulations in your country.
The anchoring points must be constructed to withstand a traction force of at least 150 kN and
have to be inspected for functional reliability by a specialist.
Measurements of the height of anchoring points must take account of the height of the snow, the
land, and allow for the turning area of the vehicle. The cable anchoring must be maintained regu-
larly by qualified personnel and its condition must be checked.
The cable must not be wound around anchoring points. The cable can only be properly anchored
using the anchoring point's eyelet.
Anchoring points have to be constructed in such a way that the cable will not be twisted.
If a pilot cable (wire rope with sliding hook) is used between the anchoring point and the anchor-
ing hook, ensure that the pilot cable has the same running direction as the cable.
A double rope must be chosen as lead-in to avoid twisting the cable.
WARNING
Risk of skidding
The anchoring points must be secure and stable, otherwise the snow groomer can slip.
► Do not use boulders, wooden stakes, rock spurs, etc. for anchoring the cable.
