After stopping at the desired location, to go into
work positioning mode with hands free, lock the
device on the rope by moving the handle in the
direction opposite to that used for descent (turned

Information regarding standard
EN 12841
ATTENTION, the I'D S descender must be used
with a type A backup device on a second (safety)
rope (e.g. ASAP).
The I'D S descender is not suitable for use in an
EN 363 fall arrest system.
Connect your descender directly to the harness with
an EN 362 locking connector. All equipment used
with your descender must conform to applicable
regulations.
Do not allow the safety line to be loaded when the
working line is under tension.
A shock-load can damage the belay line.

by varying the grip on the braking side of
the rope. Release the handle to activate the
self-braking function.
When the device is lightly loaded, if the
panic brake activates too easily, use the
horizontal movement button.
