max 30°
The SW-EX8000 allows for safe and hands free climbing on vertical structures. In the event of an accident, any fall will be immediately arrested. It is
necessary to use this device in combination with a shock absorber to be ANSI Z359.15-2014 compliant. The user must always ensure they are at a lower
level than the SW-EX8000. Maximum working angle between user and device must not exceed 30°. NEVER work above the device! (See Figure 12).
User must ensure the VLL does not come into contact with any sharp or abrasive surfaces. The SW-EX8000 will automatically trail the user as they
move up and down the VLL. To stop the trailing function of the SW-EX8000 rotate the blocking wheel to REST position. As the user needs to move up or
down the VLL, they must rotate the blocking wheel back to the GO position.
To remove the SW-EX8000 from the VLL, disconnect the carabiner from the connection slot of the grab and rotate the sliding plate open. DO NOT
ATTEMPT TO DISCONNECT WHILE IN USE!!

VLL's must remain taut during work operations. Use of a Rope Counterweight such as our 021-7014 is recommended (See Figure 13). User must
ensure that the bottom end of the VLL is equipped with a stitched termination, or appropriately tied knot, to prevent the grab from traveling off the VLL.
