USER INFORMATION
User Information shall be provided to the user of the product. NFPA Standard 1983, incorporated
into the 2022 edition of NFPA 2500 recommends separating the User Information from the equipment
and retaining the information in a permanent record. The standard also recommends making a copy
of the User Information to keep with the equipment and that the information should be referred to
before and after each use.
Additional information regarding life safety equipment can be found in NFPA 1500 and NFPA 1858
and NFPA 1983, incorporated in the 2022 edition of NFPA 2500 and the ANSI Z359 series of Fall
Protection standards.
LIFESPAN / INSPECTION / RETIREMENT
CMC does not specify an expiration date for hardware because the service life depends greatly on
how and where it is used. The type of use, intensity of use, and environment of use are all factors in
determining serviceability of the equipment. A single exceptional event can be cause for retirement
after only one use, such as exposure to sharp edges, extreme temperatures, chemicals, or harsh
environments.
A device must be retired when:
• It fails to pass inspection.
• It fails to function properly.
• It has illegible product markings.
• It shows signs of damage or excessive wear.
• It has been subjected to shock loads, falls, or abnormal use.
• It has been exposed to harsh chemical reagents.
• It has an unknown usage history.
• You have any doubt as to its condition or reliability.
• When it becomes obsolete due to changes in legislation, standards, technique or incompatibility
with other equipment.
Remove retired equipment from service and destroy it to prevent further use.
Inspect the equipment according to your department’s policy for inspecting life safety equipment.
CMC recommends a detailed inspection by a competent person at least once every 12 months
depending on current regulations and conditions of use. Record the date, inspector name, and
inspection results in the equipment log as well as any other relevant information to track the
usage history.
Before each use, the user should:
• Conrm the device is functioning properly.
• Verify the presence and legibility of the product markings.
• Verify there is no excessive wear or indications of damage such as deformation, corrosion, sharp
edges, cracks, or burrs. Minor nicks or sharp spots may be smoothed with emery cloth or similar.
• Check for the presence of dirt or foreign objects that can affect or prevent normal operation such
as grit, sand, rocks, and debris.
During each use, the user should:
• Conrm all pieces of equipment in the system are correctly positioned with respect to each other.
• Monitor the condition of the device and its connections to other equipment in the system.
• Do not allow anything to interfere with the operation of the device or its components.
• Keep foreign objects out of the device.
LIMITATIONS AND PROPER USE
All carabiners are designed to specic performance criteria. Be aware of load limitations, manner
used, and proper technique. Do not overload a carabiner. Carabiners can fail under improper use
conditions such as cross loading, gate open loading, loading other than major axis, applying a shear
or torsional load to the carabiner, etc. If you are not sure of proper application or technique, seek
proper training in carabiner use and technical rope application.
To remove the keeper pin (for models so equipped), use the supplied hex wrench to remove the
set screw, then pull the pin completely from the carabiner frame. To reinstall, insert the keeper pin
through the hole in the gate side of the frame, then ensure the pin is fully seated in the blind hole in
the spine side of the frame. Reinstall the set screw, taking care not to overtighten or strip the threads
or head. Use a thread locker to ensure the set screw does not back out during use.
Auto-Lock: (1)Push gate down (2)Twist gate to unlock (3)Push Gate in to open
(4)Release Gate to Lock (5)Conrm Gate Locking
Screw-Lock: (1)Unscrew gate to unlock (2)Push gate in to open (3)Screw gate to close
(4)Conrm gate locking
Manual-Lock: (1)Push gate down (2)Twist gate to unlock (3)Push gate in to open
(4) Push gate down and release to lock (5)Conrm gate locking
Do not use if gate fails to lock or open properly.
