Compatibility
Verify the compatibility of this product with
the other components of your equipment
(compatibility = good interaction when used
together).
Compatibility between Attachment point and
Connectors
An incompatible connection can cause accidental
disconnection, breakage, or affect the safety
function of another piece of equipment.
WARNING, the attachment points of your harness
can act as a lever on the gate of a connector. When
a sudden tension comes onto the rope and/or an
external pressure on the locking system, and the
connector is poorly positioned, the locking sleeve
can break and the gate can open itself.
To reduce this risk:
1. Verify that the gate is securely closed and locked
by pressing it with your hand.
2. Check that your connectors are properly
positioned each time the system is loaded (lanyard,
descender, etc.).
3. Make sure your connectors are compatible with
the attachment points (shape, size, etc.). Do not
use any connectors that have a tendency to stay in
an incorrect position.
Any equipment attached to your harness (anchors,
locking connectors, absorbers etc) must conform
to EN standards.
For your safety, get into the habit of always making
your safety systems redundant.
Contact a Petzl distributor if you are uncertain
about the compatibility of your equipment.
