INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPLACING THE LINE 

OF YOUR PERFECT DESCENT

The enclosed kit contains all components (excluding tools) required to replace 
the webbing line and integral nozzle and carabiner of your Perfect Descent 
Climbing System.  A line that appears damaged, abraded, worn or faded 
should be replaced immediately.  Replace the line as part of the regular main-
tenance schedule.  Frequency of replacement will vary depending upon use, 
and the amount of abrasion the line experiences from the climbing wall.  At a 
minimum, the line should be replaced twice annually, or after 5,000 climb/lower 
cycles, whichever comes first.  The enclosed kit may also be used to replace 
the carabiner if, upon inspection, it does not function properly, is damaged, or 
will not automatically close and lock.

CAUTION

When replacing your Perfect Descent line, you should take specified 
precautions to prevent the line from twisting inside the housing.  You 
should also ensure that when the line is detached at the joint, the free 
end will not escape inside the housing under the force of the retracing 
spring.  Please read and understand all instructions provided 

BEFORE 

you begin line replacement.  Failure to follow specified precautions may 
result in damage to the Perfect Descent and require factory service.
