USAGE
Connect to rope
1. Place the ascender on the ground.
2. Open the rope cover.
4. Put the rope around the rope grab.
5. Close the rope cover.
3. Form a loop on the rope and
push it through the rope guide
just above the rope grab.
6. Connect the primary connection
karabiner to the EN 813 connection
point of the full body harness and
check the karabiner is locked.
Check that the live rope exits to the left
and that the rope cover is fully closed.
Attaching the rope incorrectly can result
in serious injury or death. Always use the
ascender with a backup rope system.
Make sure that the rope is attached correctly
before use.
DANGER
Be careful handling the ascender with the
engine running - there is a risk of accidental
lifting without being properly attached.
If the ascender is connected to the rope and not
the operator; pay attention starting the engine
as it can accidentally ascend a short distance on
the rope before the engine is warm.
Drive the ascender to waist level to simplify
connection to harness.
