S E T U P STEP 1 The shorter ‘Sling’ cable is used to wrap around the tree that will be used as the Starting Point at a height computed from the Height Guideline. After fully extending the turnbuckle, attach it to the two loops on the ends of the sling cable and tighten the bolt and nut.

TEST THE BRAKE Using the 200lbs (90.7kg) weight attached to the trolley, test the brake to see if working properly. Run the weight attached to the trolley down to where it engages the Spring Brake. It should slow the trolley down gradually and to and complete stop BEFORE it reaches the end point. If it reaches the end point, simply move the anchor bag back up and parallel to the course until the brake blocks stop prior to the finish point.
