Storage
• Dry the wet PPE before putting it into storage
• Store in a dry, dark place.
• Do not store the PPE close to radiators or heat
sources. Permanent temperatures of above
50°C have a negative effect on the strength of
the textile material and reduce its lifespan.
• Do not allow the PPE to come into contact
with aggressive substances ( oils, greases, ac -
ids, chemicals, etc.)
• Store safely and transport in a device case or
bag

gent. Then rinse thoroughly with clean water.

lubricated ball bearings. If necessary slightly
oil the joints with (resin-free) sewing machine
oil.
