GENERAL

The user of pole climbers must have adequate professional skills. The pole climbers are to be used according to these instructions. Negligence to follow these instructions may cause life danger or damage to property.
Pole climbers must be handled carefully and used only for the work they are designed to do. They are to be checked daily for changes or cracks in the structure, and also to see that spikes and straps are in proper shape. Furthermore, the base plate and gripping bars must be cleaned as well. If any deficiencies are found, the pole climbers must be taken out of use immediately.

USER INSTRUCTIONS:

Pole climbers are firmly put on the user’s shoes. Before climbing the pole, pole climbers’ reliability and gripping ability should be tested by rocking gently on the first step.
When working on a pole while climbing, a safety belt with ropes must be used.

SPECIFICATIONS:

Designed for climbing wooden poles.
Usage surroundings: inside, outside, and during rain.
Temperature class: -35º C…+55º C

USAGE AND MAINTENANCE:

Pole climbers must always be checked before use.
An authorized person chosen by the employer must check the pole climbers once a calendar year and only he is allowed to overhaul straps and pole climbers.
Cleaning, searching for changes and fine cracks, and seeing that spikes and straps are in good shape must be done during the check-up, as well as, examining suspensions.
Damaged straps must be replaced by a replacement pair of straps PER20.
