Servicing
This equipment does not require any particular servicing. It should, however, always be
cleaned thoroughly after use and dried if necessary in order to avoid dirt and dust deposits,
particularly on the moving parts, and to prevent corrosion.
The ART recommendation:
Cleaning and oiling the metal components, in particular the moving parts and their bearings,
using neutral oil such as Ballistol ensures smooth-running functionality and a lasting good
appearance.
Local safety assessment
A safety assessment must be performed of the climbing object and its surroundings before
deploying this device and the entire equipment. Any hazards determined must be consistently
eliminated.
All factors required for any necessary rescue action must be determined:
- special features at the location;
- telephones available for an emergency call;
- local regulations and designations as well as access paths;
- qualifications and knowledge of the climbing team in the areas of climbing techniques,
operational
procedures, rescue and first aid;
- presence and availability of necessary equipment and technology;
- at least one second trained climber must be visible and within earshot at all times.
