PPE Inspection
Inspection procedure
• In addition to routine checks for each use, PPE should regularly undergo a detailed inspection by a competent
person. Petzl recommends an inspection every 12 months and after any exceptional event in the life of the product.
• PPE inspection should be conducted with the manufacturer's Instructions for Use.

3. Checking the lanyard ends
• Remove the lanyard connector (if possible).
• Check the condition of the protective sheaths (cracks, deformation...). If possible, move the sleeve to check the condition of the safety
stitching. Check the condition of the safety stitching on both sides. Look for any threads that are loose, worn, or cut.
