LIMITATIONS OF USE
Do not carry out any rope-assisted work if your physical condition means that your safety
could be at risk during normal use or in an emergency.
Any changes or additions to ropes to EN 1891 are forbidden and may only be made by the
manufacturer. The breaking load of ropes / ropes with terminations is specified for tension
applied in the ropes' longitudinal direction. Therefore, never subject end loops, for example,
to transverse loads (2 karabiners in one loop). Check which load in the selected configu-
ration acts on the rope and make sure that you do not overload it. We recommend a safety
factor ≥ 7.
TO BE OBSERVED PRIOR TO USE
The rope must be inspected visually before use to check completeness, usable condition
and proper operation. If the equipment has been affected by a fall, it must be withdrawn from
use immediately. Even if you have only the slightest doubt, the product must be withdrawn
and may only be used again once an expert has authorised the use in writing following an
inspection.
Knots in the rope reduce the breaking load.
Do not use ropes whose previous usage history is unknown to you.
The user must ensure that the recommendations for use with other elements are complied
with. Further PPE components must meet the harmonized standards under the regime of re-
gulation (EU) 2016/425: EN 341, positioning systems EN 358 or fall arrest systems EN 363.
Adjustment devices on descender devices must be adjusted to the diameter of the rope.
Metal components must not include any burrs or sharp edges that might cause damage to
the rope. You put yourself at risk by combining equipment parts that impair the safe operati-
on of any part of the equipment or of the assembled equipment.
Before use, a plan for rescue measures must be prepared to take account of all possible
emergencies. Before and during use, you must consider how the rescue measures can be
carried out safely and effectively.
