remove the webbing joint bolt 
(Figure 7).

4.  Secure  the  line  by  inserting  a  

Phillips  head  screwdriver  between 
the  two  layers  of  blue  webbing 
where  indicated  in 

Figure 4.    To 

prevent  twisting  it  is  important  that 
the  webbing  maintain  its  vertical 
orientation  (screwdriver  oriented 
vertically).    The  screwdriver  will 
prevent  the  joint  from  returning  into 
the  housing  during  replacement.  
Release  the  webbing,  making 
certain  that  the  line  is  adequately 
secured,  and  that  the  screwdriver 
will  not  slip  loose  or  rotate. 
 
 
 
Place  some  duct  tape  across  the 
screwdriver  and  housing  nose  to 
prevent  the  screwdriver  and  line 
from  twisting 

(Figure 5).    If  the 

detached end of the line retracts and 
is lost within the housing, the Perfect 
Descent  will  require  factory  repair. 
 
 
 
A  black  mark  should  appear  on 
the  upper  portion  of  the  web 
(Figure 6).    If  not,  the  webbing 
has  become  twisted.    Untwist  the 
webbing  by  carefully  examining  the 
webbing as it exits the housing and 
rotating  the  webbing  so  the  mark 
appears in its proper location.
