6.0 MAINTENANCE, SERVICE, and STORAGE
6.1 CLEANING: Cleaning procedures for the Self-Retracting Device are as follows:
• Periodically clean the exterior of the SRL using water and a mild soap solution. Position the SRD so excess water can
drain out. Clean labels as required.
• Clean lifeline with water and mild soap solution. Rinse and thoroughly air dry. Do not force dry with heat. An
excessive buildup of dirt, paint, etc. may prevent the lifeline from fully retracting back into the housing causing a
potential free fall hazard. Replace lifeline if excessive buildup is present.

Line Lifeline Replacement Kit. Install the lifeline per the instructions in the Service Manual (5903076) include with the
FAST-Line kit. Always perform a complete Competent Person inspection after replacing the FAST-Line Lifeline. Additional
service, determined from the Competent Person inspection, must be completed by an authorized service center. Do not
attempt to disassemble the SRL or lubricate any parts.
