adding disinfectant, then rinse again with drinking-water, dry and lubricate. Avoid
autoclave sterilization for textiles.
- lubrication (for metallic products only): frequently lubricate the mobile parts with
silicone based oil. Avoid contact between oil and textile parts. This job must be
done after cleaning and completely drying.
Storage: after cleaning, drying and lubrication place the loose equipment in a
dry (40-90% relative humidity), fresh (temperature 5-40°C) and safe (avoid U.V.
radiation) place, chemically neutral (absolutely avoid salty environs), away from
sharp edges, sources of heat, dampness, corrosive substances or other possible
detrimental conditions. Do not store when wet!
4 – PERIODIC INSPECTIONS
We would also strongly advise having pre and post use controls carried out by
qualified persons. Unless otherwise specified by stricter provisions of law, it is
recommended to have a competent person to perform an accurate product
inspection on an annual basis. Periodic inspections results shall be recorded in
the product control card. A control card shall be provided for each component,
subsystem and system (please find a sample attached). Periodic inspections shall
as well check that product marks are clearly legible.
5 – PRODUCT LIFE
Read point 1C very carefully. Lifetime of metallic devices is theoretically unlimited
while lifetime of textile or plastic devices is of 10 years from the production date
under the following conditions: maintenance and storage are made as described
at point 3; pre use, after use and periodic controls do not show any malfunction,
deformation, wear, etc., the device has been correctly used not exceeding ¼ of
the breaking load. Do not use obsolete devices, (i.e.: expired lifetime, lacking
of periodic control-card with updated registration, non conforming to norms, not
suitable or compatible to the present techniques, etc.). Reject devices which are
obsolete, deformed, wear off, not properly working, etc. destroying them in order
to avoid any future use.
6 – OBLIGATIONS OF LAW
Work, sport and professional activities are often governed by specific national laws
that may impose limitation and/or obligations in the use of PPE and of SAFETY
SYSTEM (of which PPE are components). Users and instructors shall know and
apply the laws that might impose obligations different from those indicated in this
information.
7 – GUARANTEE
The Manufacturer guaranties the conformity of supplied goods to agreed
specifications. The guarantee covering faults is limited to production defects and
raw materials: it does not include wear and tear, oxidation, damages caused
by improper use and/or during competition, no correct maintenance, transport,
storage, etc.; it decays immediately in case of modifications or alterations of the
product. Validity corresponds to the legal guarantee of the country in which the
product was sold (max 3 years) and shall be effective from the selling date by the
Manufacturer. No claims may be lodged against the Manufacturer after such term
has elapsed. Any request of reparation must be accompanied by documentary
evidence of the date of purchase. If the defect is recognized, the Manufacturer,
at its only discretion, will repair or replace or refund the product. In no case the
Manufacturer’s liability will exceed to the invoiced price.
