Simple assembly
The assembly of the individual track elements is made easier and thus a safer positioning of the
rail shackles is guaranteed, because of the guide catches on both faces of the track bed. The
rail shackle is completely embedded in the guide catches; the danger of injury because of it is
prevented to the greatest extent through this.

Covered spike holes, through which an attachment to the plant plate can take place, are provi-
ded at certain sleepers, to attach the individual track elements with the corresponding spikes
(Art. No. : 10001). The covered spike holes can be recognized by a marking on the upper side of
the corresponding sleeper. However, it is recommended to penetrate the thin cover with a spike
through the guide provided for the track spike, to find them more easily. This will also make
positioning the track spike easier. The track spike should only be driven in until it is impossible
for the track frame to shift. Spikes driven in too far will lead to the bending of the sleeper and
suspend the absorbing characteristics of the absorbent caps.
