assume this responsibility, or if you do not fully understand the Instructions for Use,
do not use this equipment.
Compatibility
This product is part of a safety system. Verify that this product is compatible with
the other equipment used with it.
Equipment used with your JAG TRAXION, JAG or JAG SYSTEM must meet current
standards in your country (e.g. EN 362 connectors).
To make a haul kit from separately-sold pulleys, use only 8-11 mm diameter
kernmantle rope (EN 892 dynamic, EN 1891 low stretch, or static).
Inspection, points to verify
Your safety depends upon the integrity of your equipment.
Petzl recommends a detailed inspection by a competent person at least once every
12 months (depending on current regulations in your country, and your conditions of
usage). WARNING: your intensity of use may cause you to inspect your PPE more
frequently. Follow the procedures described at Petzl.com. Record the results on
your PPE inspection form: type, model, manufacturer contact info, serial number or
individual number, dates: manufacture, purchase, first use, next periodic inspection;
problems, comments, inspector's name and signature.
Before each use
Verify the absence of any deformation, cracks, marks, wear or corrosion (on the
side plates and around the attachment holes). Verify that the sheaves are in good
condition and working properly. Verify that the moving side plates align properly.
Check the mobility of the cam and the effectiveness of its spring. WARNING: do not
use your JAG TRAXION if it has missing or worn-out teeth. Verify the absence of
foreign objects in the mechanism.
Visually check the condition of the sheath along the entire length of the rope. Make
sure there are no cuts, burns, frayed strands, fuzzy areas, or signs of chemicals,
for example. Carry out a tactile inspection of the core along the entire length of
the rope, as indicated in the diagram. This allows you to detect areas where the
core is damaged (e.g. hard spot, mushy area). Check the condition of the sewn
termination: look for cuts, damage and wear due to, for example, use, heat,
chemicals. Be particularly careful to check for cut or damaged threads.
Connectors: verify the absence of any deformation, cracks, marks, wear or
corrosion (on the frame, rivet, gate and locking sleeve). Verify that the gate opens,
that it closes automatically and completely, and that the locking sleeve locks
automatically and completely.
During use
It is important to regularly monitor the condition of the product and its connections
to the other equipment in the system. Make sure that all items of equipment are
correctly positioned with respect to each other.
Beware of foreign bodies (e.g. mud, snow, ice or debris) which can impede the
operation of the cam.
WARNING: blocking effectiveness can vary depending on the condition of the rope
(e.g. wear, moisture or ice).
Verify that the carabiner is always loaded on the major axis. Monitor the locking
sleeve to make sure that it stays locked. Avoid any pressure or rubbing that could
unlock the gate or damage the locking sleeve.
Make sure the rope does not get tangled between the pulleys.

3. Making a haul kit
Choose the direction of rope insertion according to the information engraved inside
the device.
Function test
Each time it is installed onto the rope, verify that the JAG TRAXION blocks in
the desired direction. Verify that the complete system blocks and holds the load
properly in one direction and allows hauling in the other direction.
TECHNICAL NOTICE JAG SYSTEM
4. Function principle and test
The JAG TRAXION allows the rope to slide in one direction, and blocks in the other
direction. The cam's teeth initiate the clamping action, then the rope is blocked by
being pinched against the sheave.
Before suspending anything on the system, verify that the JAG TRAXION's cam is
enabled and that it blocks the rope.
Extending the system when not under load: the cam can be disabled for faster
movement. Raise the cam and push the button to keep the cam raised.
Extending the system under load: WARNING, do not disable the cam when the
system is in use. Raise the cam to allow the rope to run, but without pushing the
button.
5. Rescue use
Use the JAG SYSTEM to haul and release a load, or a person.
Disabling the progress-capture function
WARNING: disabling the progress-capture function presents a fall risk for the user
or the load. To deactivate the progress-capture function, raise the cam and press
the button. Release the button to hold the cam in the raised position. To reactivate
the progress-capture function, press the button again.
6. Adjustable lanyard for work positioning
EN 358: 2018
Working load: 100 kg.
Personal protective equipment (PPE) used for fall protection from height.
Using the JAG TRAXION on the harness: connect the lanyard end to an anchor and
the rope adjuster to the harness ventral attachment point.
Using the JAG TRAXION on the anchor: with 1 m JAG SYSTEM only. WARNING:
with 2 or 5 m lanyards, it is difficult to keep the lanyard tensioned while moving
between the anchor and the workstation: there is a fall risk.
Precautions: Adjust the lanyard length to keep your weight on the system, while
staying below the anchor.
The fixed positioning piece must not be removed from the connectors.
Do not use a work positioning belt if there is a foreseeable risk of the user becoming
suspended or exposed to uncontrolled tension on the belt.
JAG SYSTEM must not be used for fall arrest. The work positioning system helps
support the user; it may be necessary to supplement the work positioning system
with a fall-arrest system.
7. Precautions
Install the system so that it is correctly positioned when the rope is under tension.
Avoid cantilevering or loading over an edge.
Make sure that all of the pulleys' side plates are correctly clipped into the connector:
the strength of the devices is reduced if one of the side plates is not connected.
Connectors
A connector is not indestructible.
A connector is strongest when loaded on the major axis, with the gate closed.
Loading a connector in any other way (e.g. on the minor axis or with the gate open)
is dangerous and can reduce its strength.
8. Additional information
This product meets the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 on personal
protective equipment. The EU declaration of conformity is available at Petzl.com.
- You must have a rescue plan and the means to rapidly implement it in case of
difficulties encountered while using this equipment.
- The anchor point for the system should preferably be located above the user's
position and meet EN 795 requirements (12 kN minimum strength).
- In a fall-arrest system, it is essential to check the required clearance below the
user before each use, in order to avoid hitting the ground or an obstacle in the
event of a fall.
- In a fall-arrest system, the length of the connector affects the fall distance.
- Make sure that the anchor point is correctly positioned, in order to limit the risk
and the length of a fall.
- A fall-arrest harness is the only device allowable for supporting the body in a
fall-arrest system.
- When using multiple items of equipment, a dangerous situation can arise in which
the safety function of an item of equipment can be affected by the safety function of
another item of equipment.
- WARNING - DANGER: ensure that your products do not rub against abrasive or
sharp surfaces.
- Users must be medically fit for activities at height. WARNING: inert suspension in a
harness can result in serious injury or death.
