SKYLOTEC DEUS 7300 Instructions D'utilisation page 9

DEUS devices are laser engraved with the
required information, warnings, and certifications
on the back and inside of the 7300 series covers.
5. RIGGING A DEUS 7300 SERIES DEVICE
DEUS 7300 Series controlled descent devices are
certified for use only with SKYLOTEC-approved
11.5-12.5 mm ropes.
The hinged cover plate on each DEUS 7300
Series device is attached to the device body with
a double-action bayonet-mount and hinge. To
open, slide the cover plate to align the holes with
the bayonet posts on the body, then lift the cover
plate to expose the rope-threading path. To close
the cover plate, reverse the process. Push lightly
on the cover to secure the plate.
Do not force the plate closed; it will slide into
place easily when the holes are properly aligned.
Excessive force may damage the hinge.
With the cover plate open, thread rope into the
device according to the threading diagram on the
cover. When the rope is threaded inside, close the
cover plate, slide the bayonet-mount to the locked
position, and then secure the cover by attaching
through the rigging eyes. The cover plate must
be closed, locked and secured with locking
carabiners before use.
DEUS 7300 Series devices have three rigging
eyes. Rigging can be done with one, two or three
of the eyes. Rigging with two of the three eyes
is recommended. It is highly recommended that
one of the rigging eyes, usually the middle eye,
be used to attach a control lanyard to prevent
dropping the device while rigging.
CAUTION: Each DEUS 7300 Series device
weighs about 15 lbs. Dropping a 7300 Series
device from height can cause severe injury or
death if it should strike a person below.
