The product meets the requirements of the ANSI
Z133-2017 standard as regards the required minimum
breaking load (MBL) for climbing ropes and prusik
loops. It does not meet the diameter requirements
for climbing ropes. There exists no diameter re-
quirement for prusik loops.
3. LIMITATION OF USE
The total length of a subsystem including a lanyard
plus shock absorber, end connections, and connec-
tors must not exceed 2 m.
Never carry out work with this product if, as a result
of your physical and mental condition, your safety
might be compromised in scenarios of normal use
or in emergencies!
Do not place this product near sharp edges!
Care should be taken to ensure that the rope (or
any other part of the system) is routed away from
surfaces that may damage the rope (or any other
component), or that suitable and sufficient protection
is appropriately placed to ensure the rope and other
components are protected.
Keep away from surfaces which may cause damage
to the the work equipment e.g.sharp or abrasive
surfaces or edges. The anchor device shall be used
for personal protective equipment and not for lifting
devices - as in rigging operations!

5. WARNING AND SECURITY
– If there exists only the slightest doubt about the safe
condition of the product, be sure to replace such
product immediately.
– A system that has been exposed to a fall shall be
retired, or be returned to the manufacturer or a duly
qualified repair shop for maintenance and testing.
– Snow, ice, and moisture may affect the product's
handling and strength.
– Be sure to avoid high temperatures, sharp edges,
and exposure to chemicals (e.g., acids). Rappel

radiation and abrasion have an adverse impact on
the rope and its strength.
– Knots in the rope may cause a significant reduction
of its breaking load.
