Compatibility
Verify the compatibility of this product with the other components of
your equipment (compatibility = good interaction when used together).
Compatibility between attachment point and connectors
An incompatible connection can cause accidental disconnection,
breakage, or affect the safety function of another piece of equipment.
WARNING, the attachment points of your harness can act as a lever on
the gate of a connector. When a sudden tension comes onto the rope
and/or an external pressure on the locking system, and the connector
is poorly positioned, the locking sleeve can break and the gate can
open itself.
To reduce this risk:

your hand.
2. Check that your connectors are properly positioned each time the
system is loaded (lanyard, descender, etc.).

points (shape, size, etc.). Remove any connectors that tend to remain
in an incorrect position.

points to verify
Before each use
Check the webbing at the attachment points,
at the adjustment buckles and at the safety
stitching.
Inspect the wear on the cordage loops: if any
red strands are visible, retire your harness.
Look for cuts in the webbing, wear and
damage due to use, to heat, and to contact
with chemical products... Be particularly
careful to check for cut threads.
Verify that the DoubleBack and FAST buckles
operate properly.
During each use
It is important to regularly inspect the
condition of the product. Check its
connections with the other equipment in the

of equipment in the system are correctly
positioned with respect to each other.
Consult the details of the inspection procedure
to be carried out for each item of PPE on the
Web at www.petzl.com/ppe or on the PETZL
PPE CD-ROM. Contact a PETZL distributor if
there is any doubt about the condition of this
