Safety Precautions
• Do not allow children to use this slackline without adult supervision.
• Always test the tension and strength of the line before use.
• Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 250 lbs. (113 kg).
• Set up the slackline so that the user’s feet are no higher than 12 in. (30.5 cm) from the ground.
• The set up of this product should always be performed by an adult, including site and tree selection and all parts of assembly.
• Always check each part for damage before every use.
• Do not use the slackline obstacle course if any part is damaged. Contact the manufacturer for replacement parts. Never
attempt to replace parts yourself.
• Do not allow more than one person on the slackline at a time.
• Do not attach the line to a tree that is not healthy, is diseased, or is damaged. The tree may fall or the line may not hold,
which can result in serious injury or death.
• Always wear close-fitting, athletic style clothing. Do not wear scarves or other loose clothing that may become entangled.
• Do not use the line in wet or damp conditions, or if there is rain or lighting in the area.
• Always set up the slackline during the day under sufficient lighting. Do not set up the slackline at night or in the dark.
• Consult a physician before engaging in any new exercise activity or routine.

Choosing a Setup Location
1. Choose a clear area to set up the slackline. A healthy tree with a 38 in. (97 cm) circumference or 12 in. (30.5 cm) diameter is
recommended.
2. If using a pole or post, be sure that it can withstand at least 2,500 lbs. (1,134 kg) on each end.
3. Select a location that is easily supervised, such as the backyard within viewing distance of a window.
4. It is not recommended to set up over swimming pools, ponds, streams, or rivers.
For best results, set up the slackline over soft grass that is clear of bushes, rocks, or anything else that may cause injury.
It is also recommended to place cushioning materials under and around the slackline in case of falling.
Installing the Slackline
1. To determine the height of the course, have the shortest user reach up above their head as high as possible.
2. Measure the height from the ground to the fingertips, then add an additional 24 in. (62 cm). This should allow for 12 in.
(62 cm) of clearance from the ground when the line is in use.
3. After selecting two trees, wrap the ratchet and its line around the one with a smaller diameter. Lead the ratchet through
the looped end of the line as seen below. Be sure to keep the line flat as you lead it through.
4. Pull the ratchet until the line is securely in place, as seen below.
5. Take the other line and, and using a stable step ladder, wrap it around the other tree. Tighten the line, while keeping it
flat and not twisted. Pull the loose end of the line through the looped end as seen below.
6. Repeat this same process with the walking slackline suspending it 24 in. (62 cm) above the ground.
Obstacle Course Setup
1. Note the location of each sewn-in delta clip pocket on the slackline.
This is where the obstacles can be attached.
Never attach the obstacles anywhere else on the slackline.
2. Open the delta clip on each obstacle you wish to use by twisting the lock open.
3. Attach each obstacle using the attached delta clips, keeping in mind how far the intended
user will be able to reach. Slip each delta clip into the sewn-in pocket, then lock the delta clips.

Tightening the Slackline
1. Before tightening the slackline, check that both ends are at the same height.
2. With the ratchet facing downward, feed the end of the slackline through the ratchet,
keeping the line flat and untwisted. Pull the end through until there is no slack left in the line.
3. Once all slack has been pulled through, use the lever arm on the ratchet to tighten the line.
4. The line is tight enough when it only bends slightly when pulled.
Loosening the Slackline
Always loosen the line before attempting to reposition obstacles or take down the line.
1. Pull the safety latch inside the ratchet handle and open the ratchet all the way until it is completely flat.
There will be a loud click.
2. Pull the slackline until the tension has loosened.
NOTE: Do not remove the delta clips when the slackline is under tension.
Recommended courses:
Beginners: Use the monkey rings and monkey bars only and space them close together.
Intermediate: Use the beginner layout, but add the monkey fist to the start of the course.
Advanced: Add up to 12 obstacles to the course, spacing them further apart for added difficulty.

Stress Testing the Line
1. Make sure that all connections are tight and secure.
2. Suspend either a 250 lbs. (113 kg) weight or a person from 5 ft. (1.5 m) on each end of the slackline.
The line should securely hold the weight in place with very little give.
NOTE: Any bystanders should maintain a safe distance of 10 ft. (3 m) from the person performing the stress test.
Tips for Using the Slackline with Obstacles
• Set up a step ladder at the beginning and end of the course.
• When starting out, it may be helpful to start with the slackline in a lower position,
so that the user can stand on the tips of their toes while they get used to using each obstacle.
• Do not expect to be able to complete the course on the first few tries.
The more you use the course, the more your muscles will develop, making the course seem easier.
• For added difficulty, try adding more obstacles or increase the space between each obstacle.

Care and Maintenance
At the beginning of the play season:
1. Tighten all hardware: check the line, ratchet, delta clips, and all connections for any sign of looseness, damage, wear,
fraying, or sharp edges and replace as needed.
2. Lubricate all metallic parts: use grease or lubricating oil to lubricate the delta clips for easy opening,
and the ratchet for smooth tightening.
3. Check all protective coverings on bolts, pipes, edges, and corners. If they are loose, cracked, or missing,
replace before use.
4. Check any wooden parts for deterioration and splinters. Sand down splinters and replace any
deteriorating wood parts.
5. Check all moving parts: check all grips for rust, wear, or other deterioration and replace as needed.
6. Check all metal parts for rust: if found, sand and repaint with a nonlead-based paint.
7. Loose-fill materials: maintain a minimum depth of 9 in. (23 cm) of loose-fill materials such as wood mulch/chips,
engineered wood fiber, or shredded/recycled rubber mulch for equipment up to 8 ft. (2.5 m) high, or 9 in. (23 cm)
of sand or pea gravel for equipment up to 5 ft. (1.5 m) high.
NOTE: An initial fill level of 12 in. (30.5 cm) will compress to about a 9 in. (23 cm) depth of surfacing over time.
The surfacing will also compact, displace, and settle, and should be periodically refilled to maintain a depth of
at least 9 in. (23 cm).

Once a month during the play season:
1. Lubricate all metallic parts: use grease or lubricating oil to lubricate the delta clips for easy opening, and the ratchet
for smooth tightening.
2. Check all protective coverings on bolts, pipes, edges, or corners. If they are loose, cracked, or missing, replace
before use.
3. Check all moving parts: check all grips for rust, wear, or other deterioration and replace as needed.
4. Perform the load stress test.
5. If using a step ladder or similar device, check it every month for looseness, stability, and wear.
Twice a month during the play season:
1. Tighten all hardware.
2. Check all protective coverings on bolts, pipes, edges, and corners. If they are loose, cracked, or missing,
replace before use.
3. Rake and check the depth of loose-fill surfacing materials to prevent compaction and to maintain an
appropriate depth. Replace as necessary.
At the end of the play season or when the temperature drops below 32 °F:
1. Take down the slackline when not in use for long periods of time or the temperature drops to
below 32 °F (0 °C).
2. Store the slackline, all obstacles, and user guide in a safe place where none of the parts will become
damaged or lost.
3. Always check the line, ratchet, delta clips, and all connections for looseness, fraying, or any other
damage before every use.
4. Clean with water and a mild detergent. Allow to dry completely before storing.
