USER’S INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE!
Read and understand all the user’s instructions before using the
equipment.
Mobile anchor points are tested and certified according to
EN standard EN-795 B.

Mobile anchor points placed round an object that the user judges capable of 15kN
ultimate load.
Warning!
Work at high heights requires the user to be in good health (see EN-
365), to be trained in the use of the equipment and to be aware of the risks. Planning
for the evacuation of persons that have fallen and that may remain hanging from
the harness must be done before starting work at high heights. If you are uncertain,
contact the dealer or the manufacturer for more information.
Warning!
Before using the product for the first time it should be suitably adapted.
The adaptation is to be made in a safe place to ensure the correct size, that there
is adequate possibility for adjustment and that an acceptable level of comfort is
achieved for the intended work.
Warning!
The product may not be modified or supplemented with other accesso-
ries than those provided by the manufacturer. Repairs or replacement of parts may
only be made by the manufacturer.
Warning!
The product is solely for Personal Protection, all other use is prohibited.
It is important that the user makes an ocular inspection of the equipment before use.
Warning!
When connecting system according to EN-363:2008 the user must be
fully conversant with the use and function of the other components. In the event of
uncertainty contact the dealer or the manufacturer.
Before use each time: Make an ocular inspection of material and function and
ensure that the equipment is working properly. Pay attention to the possibility of
webbing breakage, damaged seams, cuts, discolouration, damaged metal parts, and
functioning of the straps.
Warning!
The product must be replaced immediately if faults are discovered on
the equipment that are considered detrimental to safety. In the event of uncertainty
contact the dealer or the manufacturer for an inspection.
Warning!
The product must be discarded and replaced immediately if a fall has
occurred when using the equipment.
Warning!
For connection of the fall protection system, the anchor point must
be approved according to EN-795 or the equivalent to withstand a load of 15 kN.
The anchor point should, where possible, be directly above the user. Work is to be
carried out in such a manner that the fall distance and the risk of falling are kept to
a minimum. Avoid sideways movements that cause swinging where you could be
thrown against an object or a wall.
Warning!
Lowest ultimate load on the equipment is 15 kN.
Warning!
Observe the need of sufficient space beneath the workplace, in some
cases at least 6 m, below the person subjected to possible fall with the shock absorb-
er. Observe length of the shock absorber in extended mode, height of the worker,
position of the anchor point and length of the shock absorber line.
Warning!
When working with the harness the greatest caution must be observed
when suspended in the system. Should the user become unconscious in a sus-
pended mode it will be extremely urgent to relieve the person of mechanical tension
(knowledge of how to take down a person in an emergency is therefore essential).
The situation, referred to as “suspension trauma”, could be fatal. Make sure that
you never work alone. Make sure that you are alert, are sufficiently in motion while
working, have consumed sufficient fluids, and are suitably dressed for the prevailing
conditions.
NOTE!
The material of the protection against falling or its function can be affected if
subjected to: extremely high temperature, chemicals, electric power, grinding, cutting,
chafing against sharp edges, and effects of the weather.
NOTE! The equipment must be stored in a dry, dark and well-ventilated place. Lines
are to be hung in gentle loops. The bags provided and/or transport boxes are to be
used when transporting the equipment.
NOTE! All of Cresto’s products for protection against falling are marked with labels.
The label carries the manufacturer’s name, product name, model designation, unique
serial number, date of manufacture, EN standard and the Certification institute’s
number.
NOTE! The maximum service life of the product is 10 years from the date of
manufacture. Incorrect handling and wear can reduce the length of useful life. The
product must be discarded if it has: corrosive damage, numerous broken threads, cut
edges, discoloured webbing, heavily worn, corroded metal parts or if it is not capable
of functioning and has missing markings.
Warning! If the product is exported, the dealer shall supply the translation of this
user, maintenance and inspection instruction to the language of the country where
the product is to be used.
MAINTENANCE
NOTE!
The equipment must be stored in a dry, dark and well-ventilated space
protected against steam, sharp edges, vibrations and UV-light. The equipment shall
be kept clean for the best function and durability. Metal parts can be blown clean
with compressed air. Avoid lubricating oil! Slightly soiled equipment can be washed
in tepid water with a soft brush. A mild soap solution can be used. Heavily soiled
equipment can be machine washed in a wash bag with a phosphate-free washing
detergent using a 40° programme. Wet equipment should be hung up to dry. The
equipment shall dry by itself without being exposed to open flames or other heat
sources.
INSPECTION
Warning! For the user’s safety the product must be inspected at least once every
twelve months to ensure its function and durability (read EN-365).
NOTE! Inspections are to be made more often with frequent usage of the equip-
ment or use in aggressive environments.
Warning! The inspection must be performed by a qualified person that has an in-
spection certificate and in accordance with the manufacturer’s inspection procedures.
NOTE! The product label must be legible!
LOG
Each component of a system for protection against falling (EN363:2008) shall be
entered in a log. The log is to be filled in at least every twelve months by a “duly
qualified person”. (See equipment log on the last page).
REPAIR
Product repairs may only be carried out by the manufacturer.
