TECHNICAL DATA
We provide three types of stilts for you to choose according to your
physical conditions and working environment.
Load Limitation: 230 lbs.
ASSEMBLY
1. Loosen the tube clamps (HD29/30).
2. Insert lower strut tubes (H23) up
through the bottom of the tube
clamps.
3. Attach lower strut tubes (H50B) to the
inter-lock bracket.
. Connection with attachment cap
screw (H2 ) & nylon lock nut (H13A).
Tighten well when assembly is
complete.
5. Slide the upper strut tubes (H5) down
over the lower strut tubes and through
the tube clamps. Position so the leg
bands (H ) are just above the large
portion of the leg calves.
6. Position the tube clamps in the clamp
bracket slots, according to your calf
size, so the stilts will stand straight
when mounted, and tighten them
well.
OPERATING CAUTIONS
Strap Tightening Sequence:
1. The six holes in the heel bracket (H10)
that attached on the footplate (H9)
are used to adjust the distance
between the footplate and the heel
bracket.
2. When wearing, buckle leg straps first,
and then buckle arch and toe straps.
3. Then bind the toe straps (H7/8).
When dismounting, unbuckle arch
and toe straps first, and then unbuckle
leg straps.
Forward Rearward Balance:
1. If stilts lean forward, loosen the tube
clamps and rotate the leg bands and
strut tubes toward the rear, and
tighten clamps to ensure proper
balance. Balance of stilts is
controlled by its midst part of entire
spring assembly (H 5). Do not bend
or “size” leg bands.
2. If your body leans forward when you
are using the stilts, adjust the spring
adjuster (H15) on the lower coil
spring (H ).
3. If your body leans backward, adjust
the spring adjuster on the upper coil
spring (H16).
. The clamp brackets (H31) beside the
tube clamps are used to keep the bal-
ance of the stilts.
Please read carefull before assembl and use. It is crucial for our product

Height Adjustment:
Position the side pole holder in the side pole bracket slots (H51) according to your calf size, so that the stilts will stand
straight when mounted. Remove wing bolts (H 2). Evenly raise the stilt legs (H 7) to the desired height, align the wing
blowholes in the legs and extension tubes, install wing bolts, and tighten well.

INSPECT BEFORE WORKING
Make certain the entire stilts are free of any sign of damage or exces-
sive wear, and that all nuts and bolts are tight. Special attention should
be given to the entire strut tube assemblies and wing bolts in this
respect.
Make certain that each step completely clears the floor, as you must
never drag or shuffle your feet. Don’t work in or around loose wire,
rope, electric cords, paper sacks, broken glass, conduit, etc.
CAUTION
• Don’t wear stilts without having proper instruction on the use of them.
• Do not wear stilts that have excessively damaged, worn or modified
parts.

• Don’t wear on sandy, rocky, uneven, muddy or excessively soft ter-
rain.

sacks, broken glass, conduit, etc.
• Don’t walk on secondary scaffolding, benches, planks, stools, etc.
• Don’t carry heavy loads while walking on stilts.
• Don’t run or walk fast on stilts.
• Don’t wear stilts that are taller than necessary.
• Don’t wear stilts while under the influence of alcohol.

free of any signs of damage, and there is no excessive wear at the
connection points.
• Replace any damaged or excessively worn stilt components before
use.
• Keep all straps tightly fastened and secured.
• Fasten the upper leg strap first when putting on stilts.

sure that the structure is free of any sign of
damage, and there is no excessive wear at the
connection points.
