How to install the rescue tripod firmly

A rescue tripod is a commonly used tool for rescue activities in confined spaces such as deep well rescue and deep mountain rescue. It is an important tool for saving lives. If errors occur during the construction process and the tripod structure is not sturdy and firm, it will endanger the personal safety of rescue personnel and those being rescued.

So how to operate during the construction process to ensure that the structure of the rescue tripod is sturdy and firm?

Firstly, before installation, carefully inspect the various brackets and connecting rings of the tripod to ensure that each component is of good quality and free from defects, rust, and corrosion;

Secondly, support the three legs of the tripod and tighten them with fixed chains or ropes to avoid the collapse of the three brackets due to large openings during use;

Finally, if the tripod is equipped with a hand cranked winch or an electric winch, it is necessary to perform a trial pulling operation on the winch and ensure that the load-bearing capacity of the tripod and hand cranked winch far exceeds the weight of the lifting personnel.

Although the process of building a rescue tripod is simple and fast, we still need to approach the construction work with a responsible attitude towards life.
