require any particular maintenance. However, it is advised to: o regularly clean the
cable or the webbing and to check its state (cf § cleaning above) (Picture 1.11). To

source of heat.
• do not oil the device (Picture. 1.12)
• check the functioning and the braking of the device.
• make sure that no foreign body is in the casing.

LIFESPAN
The maximal life of PPE that is predominantly textile is evaluated as being 10
years after the date of manufacture ; the maximal life of PPE that is predominantly
metal is evaluated as being unlimited but, however, this maximal life is reduced
to 10 years after the date of manufacture for non-opening products (except in
some specific cases – see the specific manual). However, the following factors
may reduce the performance of the product and its lifespan : in correct storage,
improper use, fall arrest, deformation, contact with chemical products (alkali and
acid), exposure to sources of heat > 50°C . In order to improve the working-life of
your device, it is advised not to:
