REVISION
The safety of users depends upon the continued efficiency and durability of the equipment. In addition to the normal
inspection required before, during and after each use, this product must be inspected by a skilled person every 12

with emery paper)
• play or exit of the rivet from the gate of the carabiner
• incorrect placement of the gate on the carabiner body
• play or exit of the rotation axis of the gate
• general wear and tear of the body which causes a significant reduction of the body section, which is deeper than
1mm
