USE PROTOCOL:
After each usage, you must fill in the table pages 151-12. The rope of Res-Q MUST BE REPLACED as soon as the cumulative height
indicated in the table is reached. Maximum cumulative height must not exceed 1 500 m.
COMPATIBILITY FOR USE:
A fall arrest harness (EN361) is the only body-gripping device that may be used. All connectors used must be equipped with a lock-
ing system and be compliant with standard EN 362. It can be dangerous to create one's own fall protection system in which each
safety function can interfere with another safety function. Therefore, it is important to read the recommendations on using each
component in the system before use.
Be sure to strictly respect the rope characteristics and diameters indicated. In fact, some of them may be more or less slippery
and thus reduce the braking effectiveness. This can come from different factors: type and treatment of the sheath, inappropriate
diameter, wet or frozen rope (see specific notice for the rope). The characteristics of the belaying support can change during use,
especially due to wear, to soiling, or repeated descents along the same section of the belaying support (see specific notice for the
rope for inspections before use). If any defects are found or suspected, the rope should not be reused.
NEVER USE THE DESCENDERS WITH METAL WIRE ROPES.
A DESCENDER WITH ITS WORKING ROPE CANNOT BE CONSIDERED AS A FALL PROTECTION SYSTEM.
This product may only be used in combination with tested and certified products.
Only use this product with tested products or with products that have been recommended by KRATOS SAFETY. The following prod-
ucts correspond to the applicable PPE against falls from a height standards.
