Bornack FALLSTOP ROPSTOP 3 User Manual page 9

Miscellaneous
Storage
• Dry damp personal protective equipment before storing.
• Store away from light in a dry place.
• Do not store personal protective equipment close to
radiators. Permanent temperatures of over +50 °C have
a negative impact on the strength of the textile material
and will reduce the life span.
• Do not allow personal protective equipment to come into
contact with aggressive substances (e.g. oils, grease, acids,
chemicals).
• Store the personal protective equipment in the device
case or device bag.
Maintenance and care
• Dry damp personal protective equipment in the air, not
on artificial heat sources. Dry metal components with
cloths.
• Clean soiled textile components (full body harness, rope
etc.) without water or wet-brush, or use lukewarm water
and a little detergent for delicates.
Then rinse thoroughly. No other cleaning agents may be
used!
• For information about disinfection, please contact
BORNACK-hotmail.
• If the personal protective equipment comes into contact
with saltwater, keep it wet until it can be rinsed with
distilled water.
• Ensure that moving parts on the karabiner and other
devices run smoothly, if necessary by oiling.
• Do not use grease. Bearings are permanently lubricated
balls. If necessary, oil joints with (resin-free) sewing
machine oil.
• Protective equipment that is well looked after will last
longer!
