DESCRIPTION

The 3M SCOTT EZ-Scape Pro Fire Fighter Self-Rescue Accessory is approved 

to NFPA 1983, 2017 Edition – 

Standard on Life Safety Rope and Equip-

ment for Emergency Services.

 The EZ-Scape Pro Fire Fighter Self-Rescue  

Accessory is also approved for use with a 3M SCOTT AIR-PAK  X3 Pro SCBA 

compliant with NFPA 1981, 2018 Edition. This fire resistant waist belt and op-

tional escape rope is for use in a variety of situations on fireground, including 

self rescue and as an attachment point.
Hands-on training experience is required before use of this equipment in an 

emergency situation. Training must be conducted by SCOTT authorized training 

personnel. Proper inspection and maintenance of this equipment are critical to 

its performance.
The EZ-Scape Pro Fire Fighter Self-Rescue Accessory is available with either 

fixed clips or jettison clips. Models equipped with jettison clips feature a quick-release 

waist pad which permits the user to remove the SCBA without removing the self-

rescue accessory. The jettison clips are not available for the AIR-PAK 75 SCBA.

The EZ-Scape Pro replaces the existing waist belt and waist pad on the SCOTT 

SCBA backframe. When the EZ-Scape Pro Self-Rescue Accessory is equipped 

with a Multi-Use Ladder Strap (P/N 31003385), it may be used as a ladder belt 

to position the user securely to a rung on a ladder while doing work that requires 

one or both hands. In the full bailout system, an escape rope pouch and an anchor 

device (Crosby

 Hook or Lightning GT Hook

2

) are secured in a pouch on the belt 

until they are deployed for use. The descent device links the escape rope to the 

waist belt and is used to control the descent of the user. The descent device for 

the EZ-Scape Pro is the F4 Descent Control Device
.
