INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE – CARABINERS
Summary
Use
The length of the connector must be taken into consideration when it is used with a fall arrester system because
corresponds to basic connectors. The main material of the connector is steel. Correct connection of the connector
is indicated in . The user of a manual closing connector must avoid disconnecting it many times in the same
work session. For connection to an anchor point or a subsystem, always check the correct alignment along the
resistance in conformity with standard EN 795 (
connector. Any positioning that stresses the connector lever (for example with a descender) is dangerous (
connector loses more than half of its resistance when the lever is open (see table C). Check for correct operation
of the lever closing before use:
• the return of the lever against the connector body when closing. During the check, the lever must be released
slowly in order to neutralise the action of the spring.
• operation of the lever closing device. You must be able to tighten and loosen the screw all the way. A connector
with partial locking must not be used.
In some aggressive environments (mud, sand, paint, ice, dirty water...), movement may not work correctly. In this
case, after cleaning, lubricate the lever mechanism with silicone-based lubricant. Note: cleaning and lubrication are
recommended after each use in a marine environment. If the defect persists after lubrication, the connection must
be retired from service.
