INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Use
This product is made to be used as an energy absorber in via ferrata systems by users with a total weight between 50 kg
and 100 kg (including equipment). The distance of a free fall must not be higher than 5 meters, in order to keep a shock
force of less than 600 daN (≈ 600 kg) for a person weighing 80 kg according to EN 958:2016+A1 standard (fig.1).
Harness attachment: This product can be used with a full-body or sit harness. If the user is carrying a heavy rucksack, the
use of full-body harness is recommended. As an example only, we illustrate how to bind the attachment loop [2] to a
harness (fig.2), but we advise you to consult the usage instructions for your harness for precise instructions on how the
sling should pass through the point of juncture.
Attention: Incorrect passage of the sling can cause the harness to fail in the case of a fall.
Progression: Illustrations from 3 to 6 show the correct way to use this product.
WARNING: If one of the carabiners or one of the lanyards (fig.9) is clipped to the harness or to the attachment loop to the
harness [2], the energy absorber [1] will not function: danger of death. Do not tie knots on the lanyard [4]. Do not insert
your head between the two lanyards [4]: risk of strangulation.
During the progression, systematically check that the gate of the carabiners are securely locked. Respect the indications
for use of the carabiner. The case of the energy absorber [1] must remain closed. For users weighing less than 50 kg (total
weight excluding equipment) and more than 100 kg (total weight including equipment), we recommend rope progression:
in this case, it is necessary for the user to know the techniques of rope progression.
Falling:
Ÿ Set ferrata with laceration energy absorber [A]: in the event of a fall, if the yellow warning label sewn on the webbing
comes out of the case of the energy absorber [1] and is visible (fig.10[A]) the via ferrata set must be put out of service
immediately. To complete the via ferrata safely, use another set or tie in with a roped party.
Ÿ Set ferrata with "rope-sliding" energy absorber. [B]: in case of a fall, it is necessary to check that the products have not
been damaged and place the braking rope [7] in its original position in the metal absorbing element [6] (fig.10[B]):
retire the lanyard as soon as you finish the via ferrata.
