Warnings
This equipment is intended to be used by professionals trained in the use of this equipment. Misuse of
this equipment may cause bodily injury or death. Manufacturer disclaims all liability resulting from the
use of this equipment in any manner other than that prescribed by the manufacturer.
The Tactical ResQmax is extremely powerful and propels a projectile at high speed. It is NOT a firearm,
but the same precautions should be used. If misused, this equipment could cause serious bodily injury or
death. Handle all components with the appropriate care.
DO NOT deploy the Tactical ResQmax directly at any person or property. When testing or training
with the Tactical ResQmax, make sure that no persons or property are in the vicinity of the target.
The Tactical ResQmax requires proper training and servicing. If you are not familiar with this equipment
or unwilling to follow the recommendations as outlined in this Operation Manual, then you should not
operate this equipment. The user must follow recommended servicing and maintenance guidelines to
ensure the long-term integrity and safety of the Tactical ResQmax.
Some optional grappling hooks offered are for use to establish a line only – or for recover of mooring
lines - and should not be used for the support of a human being. Only grappling hooks certified for
climbing by the manufacturer should be used for the support of a human being.
Loads imposed on grappling hooks should never exceed the design loads. Any grappling hooks must be
removed from service if any signs of damage or deformity are visible.
It is the responsibility of the purchaser of any grappling hooks to establish a program which provides for
regular examination of each grappling hook for deformation or invisible fractures using a magnetic
particle test or other similar test. Any grappling hook which shows hidden fractures as a result of such
a test should be immediately removed from service. The frequency of this examination is at the discretion
of the purchaser, and should be based upon the use of the grappling hook. It is the purchaser’s responsibility
to insure that all grappling hooks are maintained in a manner which makes them suitable for their
intended use.
