11) Maintenance, repair, washing, checks
11.1 Checks
Even if incidents due to the ageing of harnesses are almost inexistent, it is important to check that the main webbing, back protection and core stitching of the
harness remain in satisfactory condition.
UV, humidity, and abrasion, can alter the properties of the materials used in the construction of the harness.
Although unlikely, premature ageing of parts of the harness due to defective materials is possible.
We recommend that you have your harness visually checked every two years according to its use; particularly in the event of a landing in trees, rocks, and even
in the case of the intervention of rescue services.
Contact your retailer, who will refer you to a competent professional.
11.2 Repair
In the case of rips or tears, damaged sewing or premature wear, contact your retailer who will refer you to a suitable repair workshop.
11.3 Washing
You can wash your harness with fresh water and mild soap.
Then leave the harness to dry somewhere that is well aired and not humid.
Do not use a dryer, and do not exceed 30°C for the wash.
Do not wash the back protection, or the seat plate!!!
Rinse carefully, dry in an aired and shaded place avoiding overexposure to sunlight.
11.4 Storage
Ideally the harness should be stored at a mild temperature in a dry place away from direct exposure to light.
Avoid compressing the back protection.
Take care to not fold parts of the harness which contain stiffer materials.
11.5 In the case of a water landing
In sea water: rinse your harness with the fresh water then dry it. See washing chapter 14.3.
In fresh water: follow the washing procedure chapter 14.3.
