Assembly
All bolts must be tightened to the torque indicated by the man-
ufacturer. The Topper Station must as a minimum be fastened
in the fastening points a and b to protection points designed to
bear 20 kN (conforming to EN 12572-1) using bolts as required
in the standards listed in Fig. 1a. Fastening point c must be
fastened to the wall construction (≥ 18 mm multiplex board) as
shown in Fig. 1a. The assembly area must be selected such that
the maximum operating range sketched in the figures (Fig.
2a/b and 3) is not exceeded. Depending on the situation at
hand, the installation point should be adapted to the wall
design; the best possible location should be chosen.
The Topper Station Refit is installed using a 10 mm steel screwed
connector to EN 12275 or EN 362, which must be connected
to two protection points designed according to EN 12572-1.
The information provided by the manufacturer of the screwed
connector must be observed. To fix its position on the wall, the
Hanger must be fastened at the holes on its side wings to the
load bearing board with bolts defined in Fig. 1b.
To help minimise rope friction for use as top rope station, we
recommend fastening the snap lock with an M4 x 8 bolt as
shown in the drawing. (Fig. 4)
