4. Periodic inspections
At least once a year, after every 12 months of use, it is necessary to carry out periodic
detailed inspection of the device.
Periodic inspection shall be carried out by a service point authorized by the Manufacturer
or a competent person with adequate skills, trained in performing inspections of such
equipment.
A trained person is a person who, based on own specialized education and adequate
experience, has sufficient knowledge in installed protective and rescue equipment, and is
familiarized with applicable OHS regulations, guidelines and generally acknowledged
technical rules to such extent that is able to assess safety of use and correct application
of protection devices.
After 5 years of use, it is recommended that periodic inspections are carried out by the
manufacturer of the equipment or an entity authorised by the manufacturer to carry out
such inspections.
Before each use of the system check whether date of the next inspection is not expired.
Do not use the device after this date. Before each use of the system visually check the
system for its integrity and technical condition and whether steel cable is tensioned.
If any defect or lack of integrity is found, do not use the point.
If any doubts arise as for the use of the equipment, please contact the manufacturer and
never repair the equipment on your own!
A system which has been used to arrest a fall must be withdrawn from use immediately!
The system which has been used to arrest a fall may be admitted for use again after a
detailed inspection is carried out by the manufacturer or an authorised service point.
When using the system, pay special attention to risks affecting the protective equipment
operation or the user's safety, and in particular to kinks and rope movement on sharp
edges, oscillatory falls, electricity, influence of extreme temperatures, equipment
damage, negative influence of environmental factors, chemical substances and
contamination.
Do not modify, repair components of the system or replace them with non-original spare
parts.
