Information that the User Instructions have to
be read.
Sections of the low stretch kernmantel ropes must
be marked at both ends with outer labels stating:
Type (A or B), diameter in mm, number of the stand-
ard (EN 1891)
2. USE & LIMITATION OF USE
Observe the user instructions of the rope for
correct treatment and proper choice of anchors
and attachment points. The rope is delivered
by TEUFELBERGER with the spliced/sewn eye
termination [slaice]®.
This innovative eye termination offers particu-
lar advantages:
– The rope remains flexible even near the eye termina-
tion.
– The eye termination [slaice]® is low profile and
hardly exceeds the rope diameter.
The eye termination [slaice]® meets the requirements
of EN 1891:1998 for rope type A, i.e. it withstands
15 kN for 3 minutes when new.
The breaking strength quoted is for rope, or rope
including the eye termination loaded in a longitudinal
direction. Therefore, never apply a transverse load
to a rope end termination eye (e.g. by applying a
load across the eye via two connectors in the same
termination eye). Be aware of the loads applied to
the rope in the chosen configuration and never over-
load it. We recommend safety factors of 7 or more.
The end termination eye [slaice]® is low profile and
hardly exceeds the rope diameter.
Caution! The end termination eye [slaice]® is not
suitable for use as a stopper!
Never use this product if, as a result of your phys-
ical and/or mental condition, your safety in normal
(or emergency) scenarios might be compromised.
Modifications or additions to the eye termination
[slaice]® are not acceptable, unless done by the
manufacturer.
Protect the rope and particularly the eye termination
against abrasion and cuts. Metal parts must be

burr-free and must not have rough or sharp edges
that may damage the rope or the eye termination
[slaice]®. It is essential that the end termination
eye [slaice]® and its' neighbouring components
are compatible
If you wish to make eye terminations yourself, we
recommend the use of figure of eight knots. A suf-
ficiently long rope end (at least 5x rope diameters)
must remain behind the knot after the knot has been
set with a suitable and sufficient force.
3. TO BE OBSERVED
PRIOR TO USE
Prior to use the rope, and the eye termination in
particular, must be subject to a visual and tactile
inspection in order to verify its integrity, readiness
for use and proper functioning.
If the product is subjected to a fall, its use must be
discontinued immediately. If the slightest doubt re-
mains, the product must be retired or quarantined. It
may not be used again unless a compentent person,
having subjected such product to the suitable and
sufficient testing and/or inspections, has approved
its further use in writing.
Knots in the rope reduce the breaking strength!
Ensure all neighbouring components are compatible.
Ensure all components are correctly configured.
It must be ensured that the recommendations for use
with other components be complied with: Carabi-
ners need to be compliant with EN 362. Further PPE
components must meet the harmonized standards
under the regime of regulation (EU) 2016/425. Ensure
all neighbouring components are compatible. Ensure
all components are correctly configured. Failure to
do so increases risk. Risk of serious injury or fatality.
It is the responsibility of the user that a relevant
and 'live' Risk Assessment is in place for the work
to be carried out which includes emergency con-
tingencies. A plan of rescue measures that covers
all foreseeable emergencies needs to be in place
before this product can be used. Prior to and during
use, rescue measures that can be executed safely
and effectively must be considered at all times.
