USE IN FALL ARREST MODE
1)
Make sure that the fall arrester is in fall arrest mode: the wire rope reels in and out, the handle does not rotate.
If it is not the case, pull the button located next to the rotation axis of the handle and bring the rotation axis in until the green ring is totally
invisible. Release both the button and the axis; the green ring should remain invisible (Fig. 6).
2)
Attach the connector situated at the end of the wire rope to an attachment point (dorsal or sternal) of the harness (Fig. 7). The operator can
move.

USE IN RESCUE MODE
The person attached to the wire rope of the fall arrester is unable to climb back up on their own.
1)
Pull the button located next to the rotation axis of the handle and at the same time, pull the rotation axis until the green ring appears (Fig.
8).
2)
Release both the button and the axis; the green ring should remain visible.

3)
Unfold the handle and rotate the crank.
To take the operator down the confined space: rotate the crank anti-clockwise.
To take the operator back up: rotate the crank clockwise.
If the fall arrester has arrested a fall, have the device inspected by a competent person (either the manufacturer
or a person authorized by the manufacturer).
