Safety Instructions for Sailing Handles and Trapeze Discs
Safe Usage Guidelines
Purpose
Sailing handles and trapeze discs are designed for use in sailing to provide athletes with a safe and comfortable experience while using the trapeze during regattas and other water activities.
Use the handles and discs solely for their intended purpose – they are not designed for use in other conditions.

Proper Usage

Attaching the Trapeze Handles:
Ensure that the handles are correctly attached to the trapeze system and fit comfortably in your hands.
Make sure all connections are securely fastened, and the handles do not move during sailing.

Secure Attachment of the Trapeze Disc:
The trapeze disc should be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring it is firmly and securely mounted in the proper location on the boat deck.
Make sure the disc is properly leveled and free of any looseness that could affect stability and safety during use.

Adjusting the Trapeze System:
Properly adjust the handles and discs to fit your body shape, ensuring comfort and safety during intensive use.
Regularly check that the trapeze discs and handles are correctly positioned and function properly.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning:
After each use, rinse the handles and discs with fresh water to remove sea salt, sand, and other contaminants that could affect their durability.
Regularly clean the trapeze discs to prevent dirt buildup that could reduce their effectiveness.
Dry the discs and handles after cleaning to prevent corrosion.

Storage:
Store the handles and discs in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources that could weaken the materials.
Avoid crushing or overloading the handles and discs to prevent damaging their structure.

Regular Technical Inspection:
Trapeze Handles:
Before each use, check for cracks, abrasions, or other damage on the handles.
Ensure that the attachment system for the handles to the line or trapeze system is stable and secure.
Trapeze Discs:
Regularly inspect the technical condition of the discs, paying close attention to their surface for mechanical damage, dents, or scratches that could affect their performance.
Ensure the discs are properly mounted and have no looseness.

Safety Usage
Use trapeze handles and discs exclusively for sailing and under appropriate weather conditions.
Always check the stability of the trapeze system before starting your sail to prevent accidents on the water.
In case of an accident or injury while using the trapeze system, immediately cease using the handles and discs and consult a doctor if necessary.

Contact for Issues
If you notice any manufacturing defects or damage, contact the manufacturer or point of sale. Do not modify the handles and trapeze discs on your own, as this could affect their safety and functionality.
