INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Before snapping the boot into the binding for an
ascent, check that the holes where the tips of the
binding are inserted are clean.
Check that the binding pins are correctly inserted in
the boot, if necessary, move and rotate the boot to
make it sure before starting walking.
For ascent, make sure that the blocking lever of the
binding is rotated upwards. Only in this way the boot
is firmly blocked by the binding and the ski does not
release.
In descent make sure that the lock lever is facing
down – this is the only way to allow frontal and lateral
release in case of a fall, reducing the risk of injury.
Ski touring sometimes presents situations where an
expert may use the lock lever in a different way to how
would be normally advised in ascent and in descent.
With the TITAN VARIO.2 the user can walk with the
lever facing down in ascent, knowing that the ski can
release in avalanche areas or on terrain that is not
steep or exposed; or in descent ski with the binding
locked (lever facing up) safe in the knowledge that the
ski will not release on steep, icy or exposed terrain. It
is the responsibility of the skier to decide how to use
the bindings.
When skiing, an impact or particular incident could
change the position of the frontal lever at the toe unit.
Check the position frequently to make sure it is the
same as it was set.
Make sure that the binding has a working ski stopper
or safety leash.
Read carefully the instructions for use, complete with
photographic illustrations, provided in this manual
MOUNTING AND ADJUSTING
It is very important that mounting, settings, check,
repair or any required maintenance work for SKI TRAB
TITAN VARIO.2 bindings and binding accessories
should only be carried out by an authorised dealer.
We strongly advise against mounting the bindings
yourself
To make sure your bindings are correctly set and
checked, please go to a specialized vendor with
suitable, certified instruments for measuring ski
binding release settings.
It is advisable to check both after the binding has been
mounted, as well as after use, that the set distance
between the heel of the boot (the metal insert at the
rear) and the heel unit is just 0,5/1.0 mm.
We recommend always checking the binding before
every ski season or after frequent and/or intensive use
at an authorised dealer.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The SKI TRAB guarantee works on the basis that
the instructions and recommendations for use are
observed.
It is also necessary to check regularly
(at least at the beginning of the ski season), that
the binding is functioning properly at a specialised
authorised store.
Store skis and bindings in a cool, dry place away from
direct sources of heat, ice or the elements. Position
vertically with the base of the skis against each other,
if possible off the ground. Make sure that there are no
traces of dirt, mud, salt, sand or other grains that could
cause corrosion or wear to the binding and damaging
the safety release systems. If the binding is dirty then
it can be hosed down with water (do not use a high
pressure hose as this could remove the grease from
the components). After washing dry the metal parts
carefully.
Every year before use clean and lubricate the binding
around all joints and rotation points, both on the toe
piece and the heel piece. For lubrication use a silicone
grease spray.
Skiers are advised that these products should not be
used with worn or damaged ski boots.
When transporting skis on the roof of a car it is
advisable to use a cover to protect the binding from
dirt and grit.
GUARANTEE
The SKI TRAB guarantee, offered by specialised
dealers, is valid for 24 months from the date

manufacturing faults or defective material.
The guarantee is valid only if the sale, mounting,
setting, assistance and repair have been carried out
by an authorised SKI TRAB dealer.
SKI TRAB does not take responsibility for any damage
to the binding in case of tampering. Damage due to
wear and tear, improper or excessive use, external
factors such as fire, heat, water etc., non-observance
of the mounting instructions or instructions for use
and care and maintenance, is not considered as a
defect and is therefore not covered by the guarantee.
In order to use the guarantee, the service must be
requested through an authorised dealer, consigning
the binding or parts presumed defective and proof
that the purchase is under guarantee.
When SKI TRAB receives the binding or the part they
will decide if it is defective and whether or not to
repair or replace it.

competent tribunal is that of the office of the
