USE

You can only use this product safely if you have been properly trained or if you are under constant supervision of a properly trained and competent person. Your health and mental and physical condition could affect the safety of the equipment user in normal and emergency use. Check the compatibility of this product with the other components of your equipment. The use of unsuitable combination of products in a safety chain or damage of any component of a safety chain may result in serious or even fatal accident. Please try to use all the equipment in a safe place without the risk of falling. Use the product with a dynamic climbing rope (EN 892) or with a low-stretch kernmantle rope (EN 1891). If the fall arrest system consists of static equipment alone (Via Ferrate, low-stretch rope, tape slings…) and if there is risk of a fall, it is essential to introduce a shock absorber EN 958 into the safety chain to lower the potential shock load. Always choose a safe anchor point and make sure that there is enough free space under you and keep any fall length to a minimum. Recommended for use in normal climatic conditions tolerable to humans. Damp and icy conditions may make the manipulation during adjustment of the harness difficult, influence on the strength of the harness is negligible. In order to provide the best maintenance and inspection possible we recommend using the product as a personal item.
