Abseiling Of 2 Persons - Skylotec MILAN AGR 2001 Gebrauchsanweisung

4.6 ABSEILING OF 2 PERSONS

GB
When abseiling one person the speed can be adjusted by holding the counterrope. With increased
descending load, in particular by simultaneous use of two persons, the descent becomes
more difficult. By deflecting the counterrope the necessary strength can be reduced.
SKYLOTEC recommends always to work with a deflection on a two-person rescue scenario. Acc.
ANSI the deflection is mandatory for two-person rescues. The deflection is achieved by using the
pig tail of the Milan 2001 or the ‚Bull horn' of the Milan 2.0.
If working with a deflected rope, the maximum lowest value recommended can be applied.
