• Inspect the cable tension. For systems that utilize a compression spring (Figure ?), the spring
in the bottom bracket should be compressed to 5-1/2 inch (13.8 cm) length. For systems that
utilize a tension rod and tension indicator washer (Figure 21), the washer should be indicated
(center ridge sheared off) and the washer imbedded fully into hole of bottom bracket. You
should not be able to pull tension rod down by hand. Cable should be tight enough to prevent
contact with the ladder/structure. Re-tension the cable if necessary. For bottom brackets that
contain an indicating washer, a new washer (part no. 9504239) should be installed if the cable
is re-tensioned. Tighten the system until indicating washer ring is sheared off. Do not over-
tension the system.
Installation and Service Label: See Section 8 and Figure 13.

Ladder/Climbing Structure:

• Inspect the ladder/climbing structure to which the Lad-Saf the structure is in good condition, secure, and safe to climb. If the condition of the structure is
questionable, consult instructions and/or personnel familiar with the structure prior to use.
