WARNING!
Even if the zippers are not self-locking, do not open the cloth bag by pulling the cover; use the
pullers on the zipper cursors (fig. 06).
5.3 HAND SHAFTS:
The two pairs of shafts (two front shafts and two rear shafts) are fitted with a comfortable padding:
The front shafts can be inserted in straight position for normal carrying (fig. 07) or in opposite
o
position for extremely steep slopes or overhangs, giving a better control of stretcher drive (fig.
08).
The shape of the rear shafts allows a good visibility of the ground (fig. 09).

5.4 WORKING LOAD:
The stretcher is designed and tested to support a max weight evenly distributed of 720 Kg.
The safety working load (SWL) of the cloth bag is calculated with a safety factor 1:4 to support a
weight evenly distributed of 180 Kg. The load shall never be applied in one only point.
The hanging kits (for helicopters or cableways) have a SWL of 500 Kg (Safety factor 1:4 – breaking
load 2000 Kg).
The use of Kong Stretcher in hard conditions may cause an adjustment of the connections between
heads and longitudinal bars with a play between the metallic parts: this is not prejudicial to the
functionality of the stretcher provide it is correctly assembled with the lateral and longitudinal
webbings correctly stretched (fig. 23 – 27).
5.5 LIFE TIME OF THE STRETCHER:
The life time of the stretcher frame is technically unlimited, provided it is correctly stored and that
o
after an intensive use (we suggest at least every two years) the stretcher is revised by Kong s.p.a.
or persons authorized by Kong s.p.a.
The life time of the cloth bag, if correctly stored, is of ten years, provided that after an intensive
o
use (we suggest at least every two years) the cloth is revised by Kong s.p.a. or persons
authorized by Kong s.p.a.
Hanging kits "Orion" – "Gemini" – "Evolution" and "Virgo", should be replaced every three
o
years (even if not used).
