Always fix this product to an anchor device before descending. The device's anchoring point must be positioned above the user and
must comply with standard EN795:2012 (R>12kN).
Descender function :
This function enables lowering 1 person at a controlled speed by means of 2 fly wheel brakes operating in both directions (speed
ca 0.8m/sec).
Control descent or stop descent function :
Using the eye bolts, you can control the descent speed or stop the descent. The longer, unloaded rope end runs through the eye
bolts. If you hold on to the longer rope end, you can throttle the descent speed or stop the descent. If you don't use the eye bolts,
the descent speed will be regulated automatically by two fly wheel brakes (speed ca. 0.8m/sec).
If you are using the descender as a shuttle system, make sure that you use the eye bolts correctly.
Standard rule: Only run the unloaded, longer rope end through the eye bolts!
Warning ! If you run the shorter rope end through the eye bolt (shorter rope end = loaded rope end, on which a person is suspend-
ed) the descent will be blocked and the person cannot be lowered to the ground.
Here under an example of usage of Res-Q:
1°) Self evacuation from a higher to a lower postion:
Example: A person is working on an aerial working platform (secured with a belaying system). Finishing, he notices that the platform
is stuck and it cannot descend. He takes the tape sling and the descender device out of the bag.
1
He fixes the lanyard(s) in order to create his anchor point on
the AWP (general rule: fix the lanyard(s) on a stable element).
Then he hooks the descender device in the anchor point.
Do not forget to lock the connector !
3
Now he unclips from the belaying system, lets the long rope end
to the ground and pulls it until the short rope end is tight. Then
he puts the long rope end over the eye bolt.
Important : Avoid slack rope between descender device &
safety harness
2
He hooks the connector of the short rope to his harness.
Do not forget to lock the connector!
4
Then he exits the platform and keeps the long
end rope in his hand.
