5.1 ROPE BRIDGE SET UP

To secure the rope bridge a stopper knot is required. This ensures
that the rope does not pass through the connecting lower multi
ring. For extra security ensure that there is at least a 75mm (3") tail
when tying off the knot.
a. Pass the rope through the main
centre hole (main connection point)
from outside to inside, and tie off.
b. Feed ring through rope.
c. Pass the other end of the rope through
the centre hole of the second multi ring
from inside to outside and tie off.
PLEASE NOTE:
In some situations you may
need to shorten the rope bridge. To do this tie
a secondary stopper knot.

Lower multi ring holes (2) can only be used for bridge rope
attachment and must not be used as an attachment point for
anything else. Large hole (3) can be used as an attachment point.

will cause the flow of blood to be restricted. This will eventually
lead to orthostatic intolerance or HSS (Harness Hang Syndrome).

breath, blurred vision, dizziness, nausea, hypertension and
numbness of the legs etc. These symptoms will vary from
person to person.
