mark the ends with the correct lengths and end markings. Cutting a rope makes
you responsible for measuring the new lengths and adding new markings. It is
recommended to follow the UIAA protocol for cutting and measuring your rope and
to add a margin of 3% to address shrinkage over the life of the rope. The new
lengths of the rope must each be furnished with a copy of the Instructions for Use.
Tie a figure-eight knot (for example) or use a manufactured termination. Use your
ropes at a maximum ambient temperature of 80° C. Avoid any exposure to heat
above 80° C, or to flame.
Do not walk on the rope, tie into alternate ends of the rope on each pitch to avoid
creating twists. Avoid descending too fast on a rope as this heats the sheath and
accelerates wear (rappelling, or lowering a climber on a top rope). During very
rapid descents, a rappel device can become hot enough (230 °C) to melt the nylon
fibers of the rope. Store your ropes in a proper bag that will protect them from dirt.
Store ropes in bags, uncoiled. This avoids creating twists. Keep rope away from
contact with sharp objects (ice screws, ice axes, crampons). Keep your ropes
clean.
In general, take care of your safety gear. Do not leave it lying about anywhere. Do
not throw your gear on the ground. Read the specific recommendations for each
product in the Instructions.
3.2）Lifetime
Warning: An unusual event may require you to retire a product after only one use.
This may involve the type and intensity of use, or the environment in which it is
used: aggressive environments, sharp edges, extreme temperatures, chemicals...
3.3）Storage
Store your equipment in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight (UV).Reserve
a specific place for your equipment. Warning: any contact with harsh or corrosive
substances (e.g. acids) is prohibited. If you have a doubt, retire your
equipment.Never store your gear in a damp place where mold can develop (damp
closets, bags and waterproof containers with moisture inside). For long-distance
travel, beware of moisture in containers during transit, in ports or airports,
especially in salty environments.
3.4）Transport
It is preferable to store your equipment in a pack to protect it.With a backpack, take
care that crampon points or sharp objects don't damage your helmet, ropes, or
slings.When traveling by truck, train, plane, or boat, the temperatures can be
extreme and can degrade the products. For example, never leave your textile
equipment or helmets under a window or in the trunk of a car that is exposed to
direct sunlight. The temperature can be higher than 80 °C.In the trunk of a car, for
example, pay attention to your equipment's possible proximity to gas cans, car
batteries, or cleaners (risk of leaking). Warning: any contact with chemical
products, harsh or corrosive substances (e.g. acids) is prohibited. If you have a
doubt, retire your equipment.
3.5）Maintenance
After use in a salty environment (seaside), rinse with fresh water.Wash ropes in
