1 Introduction
You have just bought rescue equipment from Cresto AB, and we thank you for your
confidence.
We will in this document give information about the correct use of the $martline in dif-
ferent situations. These instructions must be read and fully understood by all persons
who are going to use the $martline. We also recommend that all employers read these
instructions carefully, to ensure a good safety level. Users shall be trained in the use
of the equipment.
This product is made in accordance with the European directive 89/686/EEC, which
applies to construction, design and production of PPE and complies with EN341
Descender devices, class D.
These instructions will contribute to the safe use of the $martline.
2 The $martline
The $martline is a rescue product that can be used for descent by the user or another
person from heights up to
80 metres .
It is a single use device , which means that after each use the $martline has to be
sent to an approved body for inspection and replacement of the line. The $martline
may be supplied with different line lengths as specified on the bag.
The $martline is a complete system, which consists of the following parts:
• 1 $martline descender, including a handle to regulate the speed;
• 1 aramid line (different lengths available);
• 1 karabiner (blue) to connect the descender device to a harness;
• 1 anchor sling for anchoring to the construction;
• 1 karabiner (black) to connect the line to the sling;
• 1 sealed bag to carry and protect the complete kit;
• 1 knife;
• 1 short version of the user instructions (inside the bag);
• 1 seal connecting the knife and the zip to a loop on the bag.
These instructions are in addition to those supplied in the pack.
The $martline has been produced as a compact light package. This has been possible
due to the special line made from Aramid. In addition to high resistance to abrasion
and strength compared to its small diameter, the descent line has an extremely high
melting point (450 °C).
3 The use of the $martline
3.1 General advice
Rescue equipment should only be used by persons who are properly trained and are familiar with how to use the equipment in
a safe manner, or during training and under direct supervision of qualified instructors.
When working at height, always have in mind how a rescue can be performed if something happens. It can be dangerous
hanging unconscious in a harness. Because of this risk, one should never work alone when using PPE.
If you have questions about this equipment, please contact Cresto AB.
