BELAY DEVICES, DESCENDERS
Maintenance
When a belay device has developed a sharp edge on the body, the Instructions For Use indicate that the product must
be retired. In fact, we recommend retiring any metal product that has wear greater than one millimeter deep on its body.
As with all descenders, the rope rubbing against the body of the REVERSO wears the metal.
To prolong the use of your descender, you can round sharp edges by hand (using fine grit sandpaper). The edge is thus
less harmful to the rope. This operation can be done within the 1 millimeter limit.
The bobbins on the STOP and SIMPLE descenders are available as spare parts. They can be replaced when worn (see
Instructions For Use).
