CHECKING CONNECTORS (DOUBLE LEVER CONNECTOR / QUICK LINK)
2.3.1 - CHECKING THE BODY
• Make sure there are no deformations, cuts, cracks, corrosion or oxidation.
• Verify that there are no signs of wear deeper than 1 mm, paying more attention to the areas of contact with rope and other
devices.
2.3.2 - CHECKING LEVERS/GATES
Make sure there are no deformations, cuts, cracks, corrosion or oxidation. Check as well the condition of rivets.
2.4
CHECKING BOLTS AND NUTS
Check that bolts and nuts are not loose. Make sure there are no cracks, corrosion or oxidation. Make sure there is no play.
2.5
CLEANING
Make sure that there is no dirt between the pulleys and the flanges. Remove it if necessary, using neutral soap and fresh water and
dry thoroughly.
3) FUNCTIONAL CHECK
3.1
PULLEYS
Make sure the pulleys rotate without sticking. If necessary, clean it with compressed air and lubricate with silicon-based oil spray,
following the indications in the device's instruction sheet.
3.2
DOUBLE LEVER CONNECTOR
• Check that the main lever can be opened by actioning the second lever as described in the instructions for use. Check that
when released the levers return freely to their closed positions. Attention! Verify, with the locking mechanism engaged, that the
lever cannot be opened. If necessary, clean it with compressed air and lubricate moving parts.
• Check that the connector can rotate freely relative to the flanges and pulleys.
3.3
QUICK LINK
Check the screw sleeve can be completely unscrewed and screwed back up. When it is screwed up, no screw threads should be
visible. If necessary, clean it with compressed air and lubricate the threads with silicon-based oil spray, following the indications in
the device's instruction sheet.
The examiner's verdict on the severity of the anomaly must be based on objective criteria and the specific training received.
