belt or the tie-in loop) (refer to the pictures). In case of a fall, the tear
webbing fall impact absorber cannot rip open, failure of the system and
a resulting possible fall are the consequences.
A tear webbing fall impact absorber which has already been triggered
can no longer absorb a further fall, the via ferrata set must be disposed
of.
Bear in mind that the tear webbing fall impact absorber can open up to
a length of 2.2m in case of a fall and also take the length of the further
components of the via ferrata set into account.
When using this product beware of entrapment (strangulation risk while
using it).
Specially for rental companies: These instructions for use must be pro-
vided to the users of the via ferrata set and adhered to. Before each use,
the product must be checked in accordance with these instructions. The
responsibility for its use lies with the user himself.
C SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before use, carefully check each product part. Diagram C
Double check all the components of this product for wear marks, chips,
frayed or singed fibres, attrition, bends and corrosion, and replace if
needed. Make sure that the gate closes properly.
Carabiners are manufactured so as to be loaded lengthways. Every other
direction of load will reduce the supporting load. Especially avoid com-
pressive load and any other pressure on the gate.
Before and after each use, the protective bag must be opened and the
red safety cord and tear webbing fall impact absorber checked for faults
or cracks. Replace the product without delay if the red safety cord is
torn.
WARNING
· High temperatures, sharp edges, and contact with chemicals (for exam-
ple acids) must be completely avoided.
· If there is the least doubt about the safety of the product, it is to be
replaced immediately.
D LIFESPAN
The lifespan of the product is dependent on a number of factors, such
as the manner and frequency of use, UV exposure, moisture, ice, affects
of weather, storage conditions, and dirt (sand, salt, etc.). Under extreme
conditions the lifespan can be reduced to a single usage or even less,
if the equipment has suffered damage (for example during transport)
before ever being used. Please note: Products manufactured from
synthetic fibres are subject to ageing even when not used. This ageing
depends mainly on environmental conditions as well as the impact of
UV light.
SALEWA explicitly recommends replacing any safety equipment (PSA/
PPE equipment) after a maximum of 10 years from the date of produc-
tion, regardless of whether the product has been used regularly or not.
Indications of maximum lifespan:
Never: Correct storage: up to 10 years since production
Once or twice a year: up to 7 years
Once a month: up to 5 years
More times a month: up to 3 years
Every week: up to 1 year
Almost daily: up to 0.5 year
E STORAGE, TRANSPORT AND CARE
See diagram E for guidelines on correct storage and care.
Do not store close to sources of heat, or at extreme temperatures or
subject to mechanical force (with kinks, under compressive load, under
tension) The product should NEVER come in contact with corrosive
chemicals such as battery acid, solvents, or chemical salts.
They can both negatively influence the materials' mechanical properties.
Ensure that the product is kept safe during storage and transport and is
protected from damage.
Disinfect the material only with substances which have no impact on the
synthetic material used.
If necessary (eg. contact with dirt or salted water), wash the product in
lukewarm water and and rinse with clear water (max. 30°). Make sure
that the product does not come into contact with chemicals. Leave to
dry at room temperature.
The product may neither be modified nor repaired. No knots may be
made as these weaken the construction. The zip roll casing (G) must not
be opened or adjusted independently.
The product must be inspected at least once per year by a competent
person.
