6. MAINTENANCE AND STORING

GB
Do not open the device to clean it. If there is dirt inside, the device has to be sent to an authorized
repair shop. Harnesses, slings may be cleaned with warm water (40° C) and a mild soap solution.
They should be washed throughout with clean water afterwards. Wet equipment is to be dried
only in well-ventilated and shadowed places. Never dry them in laundry driers or with other heat
sources. Avoid any contact with chemicals, oil, solution liquids or any other aggressive materials.
Store them at normal room temperatures, protect them against sunrays – the best is using
a special device bag or box.
7. SERVICE LIFE - REGULAR INSPECTION
Valid for: MILAN, MILAN HUB, MILAN POWER.
The duration of the service life depends on the individual usage conditions, the plastic compo-
nents are subject to an ageing process, even with careful treatment. An overall utilization period
of max. 20 years is possible, if the products are allocated to one user only, who does not use
them excessively, always treats them with due care and knows the entire utilization history
of the product. For that, at least once a year an inspection by a technical expert must be docu-
mented stating the examiner and the special product features detected. Furthermore, it must
be absolutely ensured, that the product was always optimally stored, never got in contact with
chemicals, gases, or otherwise damaging substances.
Devices which are installed on a fixed working area and are left there in between inspections,
must be appropriately protected from the elements. (e.g. SEAL PAC®). Devices which are used
regularly, e.g. as training equipment, will have a shorter service life.
Modifications, alterings, repairs or supplementary equipment‚ may only be allowed with permis-
sion from SKYLOTEC. Infringement of this condition deletes the validity of the operation allowance
and excludes the liability insurance of the manufacturer. Devices which fail inspection have to be
discard from use.
