Care and Maintenance
Carefully clean and dry these ascenders after each use to remove any dirt or foreign material and any moisture. Visually inspect each ascender to check for any visible damage or sharp edges or burrs that may catch the rope. Minor burrs or sharp edges may be smoothed with a fine abrasive cloth before cleaning. Check to insure that the cam and safety mechanisms still move smoothly through their full range of travel. Store these ascenders in a clean, dry place.
Removal From Service
These ascenders should be removed from service if they are dropped from great
height, exposed to heat sufficient to alter their surface appearance, or if
distortion of any part is apparent, or if the plastic safety trig- ger should
be broken, or if the teeth of the cam become worn, or if any cracks are
apparent, or if they have any scratches or gouges of more than a superfi- cial
nature. If you have any doubts about the integrity and safety of these
ascenders, please return them to the manufacturer for inspection and refur-
bishment.
