Rope adjustment devices.
For use with 10.5mm to 11mm diameter EN1891 Type A rope. Max user weight 150kg (including tools, equipment,
etc). *See additional note for rescue*

• Must be connected to the sternal attachment point on the user's harness. (EN361)
• Should be kept over the user's arm wherever possible.
• Should be kept as high on the rope as possible during use.

brake and placing a karabiner through the hole it covered (release hole). Check the descender or other main
device is locked off & safe, and then pull downwards on the karabiner in the release hole.
*NOTE for use in rescue:
When tested in a fall factor 2 with a 200kg test mass and a 30cm sling plus standard sized connectors (47cm total),
the ISC Rocker passed the test requirements. The maximum impact force was recorded as: 4.9kN on 10.5mm rope
with a slip distance of 1.75m; and 4.1kN on 11mm rope with a slip distance of 1.6m. This was well within the specified
maximum of 6kN and 2m slip. Therefore the lanyard, when the user weight (including tools, equipment, casualty,
etc) exceeds 150kg, must not exceed 47cm in length including connectors.
