EZ-Up Zip Line Installaon Guide
Tools Needed: 7/16” wrench
Step 1.
DO NOT START YOUR LINE HIGHER
THAN 12 off of the ground. The ideal
site for your zip line is a clear span over
level ground. Using a ladder, tack the
oponal wooden blocks to the upper
tree with nails at the desired height. If
you don’t have wooden blocks you may
gently tack nails into the tree's bark only.
This will help hold the cable in place
during installaon. Nails may be
removed aer installaon is complete.
Step 3.
Go to lower tree. Thread black webbing
sling and red safety sling though the
pieces of mesh sleeves. Ratchet and
loop must be on the same side. Use as
many sleeves as needed to protect your
tree and the webbing. You may need to
stretch the mesh.
Step 4.
Place the assembly from Step 3 around
the lower tree as shown.
Step 2.
Unroll the
cable between
the trees on
the ground.
Wrap the cable
around the
upper tree as
shown, so it is
resng on the nails. Pull the cable ght
and go to the other end of the zip line.
Mount your zip line to healthy, live trees that are at least 12" in diameter and firmly rooted in the ground!
Step 5.
Grab the end with the black webbing
loop in one hand. Thread the black
webbing strap through the black
webbing loop.
Step 6.
Insert the flat end of the black sling in to
the slot/barrel of the black ratchet
Step 7.
Reel in approximately 6" of the black
webbing by ratcheng the handle -
approximately 1 ½ turns.
Step 8.
Pull the cable ght to determine where
the lower eye on the cable needs to go. It
should be about 2 . from the large
hook on the lower tree. This is necessary
to compensate for slack in the line.

Finishing Up
Adjustment between the red and black ratchet and
webbing may be necessary. When the black webbing is
at the desired tension, loosen the red safety line, pull the
webbing taut, and re-ghten the red safety link.
Be sure that the ratchet barrels do not become too full.
Coil any excess cable or red safety link and secure with a
zip e.
Make sure both ratchets are in the closed/locked
posion.
Step 13.
A ach the hook on the black ratchet to
the cable eye.
Step 14.
Tighten the black ratchet to the desired
cable tension to eliminate sag in the line.

eye that you created.
Step 12.

through the slot in the base of the hook.
Then thread it through the ratchet
slot/barrel and pull it ght. Begin
ratcheng unl the black ratchet and
hook can be a ached to the cable eye.
Step 9.
Using the 3 cable clamps and a 7/16"
wrench, loop the cable and create the
eye. Make sure the eye is 2 ½ -3 inches
long. Install the cable clamps as in the
photo - all facing the same direcon.
Make sure they are snug but not ght as
you may have to adjust the posion of
the eye. Once the eye posion is
finalized, ghten the clamps.
