Note: Refer to 'Service life and product obsolescence' if any damage or other defects are detected
during inspection.
Cleaning
Note: Correct cleaning is essential to ensure integrity of all safety equipment. Follow the cleaning
instructions below without deviation.
DO NOT under any circumstances use any abrasive materials, acids, basic detergents or
•
solvents.
• Disinfect parts that come into contact with the operator's skin, using a disinfectant suitable
for the material of the equipment (see 'Specification'). Strictly follow the disinfectant
manufacturer's recommendations and procedures.
Unless a metal connector is heavily caked in grease and dirt residue, avoid using water for
•
cleaning. Instead, it is recommended that any dirt is removed with a soft brush or cloth, paying
special attention to the Gate (4) and Locking Sleeve (5) mechanism.
If the connector is heavily soiled and it is not possible to obtain a clean result using the dry
•
method, use warm water with detergent and a soft brush to remove dirt.
ALWAYS allow the equipment to dry naturally and keep it away from open fires or any other
•
heat sources. Ensure equipment is thoroughly dry before returning it to use or storage.
Note: This also applies to equipment that has become wet during use.
Lubrication
Occasionally apply a small amount of a suitable spray or dry lubricant to the Gate (4) and
•
Locking Sleeve (5) mechanism. Afterwards, perform a thorough inspection as described in

Service life and product obsolescence
WARNING: Fall arrest equipment and related restraint or work positioning equipment is
designed to arrest a fall from height ONLY ONCE! If subjected to an arrested fall, the gear must be
withdrawn from service and rendered unusable.
Note: The date on which the product is removed from the original packaging for the first time
becomes the 'date of first use', which should be recorded on the Inspection Record (see end of this
manual). The specified working life begins from this point.
• Due to the ingress of dirt and grit, chemical contamination, edge and surface damage, UV-light
degradation and general wear and tear, all fall arrest, work positioning and restraint equipment
manufactured from synthetic fibres (webbing and/or rope) is subject to a manufacturer's
statement of obsolescence, which is a requirement of BS EN 365:2004.
This equipment is subject to a maximum working life of 5 years from the recorded date of first
•
use, providing the product has been correctly stored, maintained and subjected to regular
inspections by a trained and competent person.
New equipment may be stored for a maximum of 5 years from the date of manufacture, as
•
indicated on the product, and will still give the potential 5-year working life – providing it
remains in the original manufacturer's packaging and is used and stored in accordance with
the instructions provided.
If the new product is stored for longer than 5 years unopened from the date of manufacture,
•
the maximum remaining working life will be reduced up until 10 years from the date of
manufacture, as indicated on the product. For example, if the product is stored new and
unopened for 7 years then it is opened and used, the maximum working life of the equipment
will be the remaining 3 years.
