WARNING! After a descent, the PRD must be withdrawn from service,

or authorised agent.
WARNING! If accidental activation of the PRD occurs, it must be
withdrawn from service, details recorded on the periodic examination log
and referred to Latchways or authorised agent. Do not attempt to reset
the release mechanism. If accidental activation goes unnoticed, when load
is applied to the PRD (i.e. when used to restrain the user), the descent
line will pay out causing an audible click to indicate that the release pin
mechanism has been activated.
WARNING! Always remember this is a PPE device. It is critical for your
safety that you take care of your PRD.
