Positioning - Skylotec MILAN AGR 2001 Gebrauchsanweisung

ATTENTION!
GB
People hanging in the harness without moving may suffer from sus-
pension trauma. Before using the Milan, a suitable rescue concept
and a risk assessment must be worked out.
NOTE:
In case of free travel always ensure that the rope is undamaged and
cannot be pulled into the rope clamp. A sudden stop can damage the
rope.

4.5 POSITIONING

Travel can be stopped at any time by increasing the friction on the rope. In the case of brief
pauses, the rope can be inserted in the rope clamp (after complete stop) and the device will
maintain its position.
The rope should only be clamped for a SHORT period and should not be used in this position for
long breaks or continuous work.
The rope may unintentionally be pulled out of the clamp, causing immediate abseiling. This unex-
pected change in position does not present any danger of falling, but may alarm the operator and
cause an undesired reaction (dropping tools, incorrect operation of the device), as well as inju-
ries. To prevent this, ensure the rope cannot be removed from the clamp by wrapping it around
the hand wheel
