Screwed joints must be checked for secure tightening
weekly and be retightened to the appropriate torque with

SERVICE LIFE AND REPLACEMENT
The service life of the product mainly depends on the type
and frequency of use as well as on external influences.
When approaching the durability limits or at the end of the
maximum service life indicated, the product must be re-
moved from use. Products made of artificial fibres (poly-
amide or polyester, Dyneema®, Aramid, Vectran®) are
subject to some aging even if not used; aging mainly de-
pends on the intensity of ultraviolet radiation as well as on
climatic conditions. At the end of the useful life or latest at
the end of the maximum service life indicated, the product
must be removed from use.
Maximum service life
at optimum storage conditions (see Storage) if unused:
textile components - 14 years, karabiners and connectors
- no limit.
Maximum useful life
Providing proper use and no detectable signs of wear
showing as well as under optimum storage conditions:
textile components - 10 years, karabiners and connectors
- no limit.
Upon damage or fall loading, the PPE product must imme-
diately be removed from service and must be presented to
a skilled person or the manufacturer for scrutiny or repair.
Upon completion, the scrutiny or repair must be con-
firmed by the skilled person in writing.
Inspection
The product must be inspected and serviced as needed,
but at least once per year by the manufacturer, a compe-
tent person, or an authorised inspections agency (PPE-
