3 USING RPX200 & EPX200
3.1 USE/PRE-CHECK
1. Note! Before use of the equipment always check the function and condition to ensure safe usage. If stored in the Cresto
vacuum solution, only check that the vacuum is still intact. If punctured, you must inspect the function and condition of the
equipment before use.
2. Check the legibility of the markings of the device and rope end.
3. Check the rope along its entire length for any signs of chang, varying thickness, cuts, chemical especially acids contact,
change of shape, UV-deterioration, stiffness or other deformation with permanent kinks. Check the stitches in the end
terminations for any loose threads or damage. Check the carabiners in the rope and equipment for any signs of signicant
corrosion, wear, deformation, cracks and limited gate function. Check the descender device for any cracks, deformation or
missing parts. While pulling the rope thru the device, check for any “wobble” in the handwheel. Test the brake function of the
device by pulling the rope through the device hard for at least 3m in each direction (Note: that the brake force must increase
with increased pulling power). Check the friction loops for any deformation. Check the function and spring action of the rope
locking mechanism.
Warning! Withdraw the device immediately until conrmed in writing by a competent person if any doubts arise about its condition
for safe use or if it has arrested a fall.
Warning! Always use a fall arrest system if there is a risk for fall when rigging the equipment.
Warning! Always ensure that in a fall-arrest system, it is essential to check for clearance below the user before each use, to avoid
any impact with the ground or an obstacle in case of a fall. Make sure that the anchor point is correctly positioned, to limit the risk
and the height of fall. When using multiple pieces of equipment together, a dangerous situation can arise if the safety function of
one piece of equipment is affected by the safety function of another piece of equipment.
Warning! Extreme temperatures may affect the capacity of the device.
Warning! Protect the rope for any edges that may compromise its integrity.
Warning! Long descent distance with minimum load in high wind and trailing rope may affect the descent speed as the trailing
rope will create a counter force.
Warning! Always have an operator operating the device when top mounted if entanglement of the rope will occur and block the
descent. Last person-/s evacuating will have to body mount the equipment to remain in control.
Warning! During descent the handwheel will spin fast and may cause burn injuries.
Warning! Be careful not to get your hand or ngers inside the handwheel while running. This can cause severe injuries.
Note! Always position the device so that the handwheel doesn’t come in contact with any structure as this can slow down the
descent or result in a complete stop.
Compatible with PPE components within EN, ANSI or CSA designed for the purpose
Note! This must always be in conjunction with the national and local requirements
Only connect to a structure with a minimum strength of 12kN or designed for the purpose. Strive to position as high above as
possible and protect from edges that could damage the rope.
To be used with fall arrest harness EN361, Rescue harness EN1497 or rescue slings EN1498.
See user instruction of the body holding device for correct attachment of the equipment.

6 OPERATION
6.1 LOCKED OFF POSITION
6.1.1 TOP MOUNTED
Pull the trailing rope thru the friction loop and into the rope clamp to lock the device.
6.1.2 BODY MOUNTED
Pull the rope thru the rst friction loop into the rope groove and over the second friction loop. Insert the rope into the rope clamp.
6.2 BASIC EVACUATION - GENERAL INFORMATION
Secure the equipment to the anchor point at least one meter above the platform. Check that the intended descent path is free of
any obstacle that may obstruct the descent. Throw the rope bag to the ground if this is appropriate and done responsibly.
Alternatively, the bag can travel with the rst evacuee or be left at the exit
level.
Note! The last evacuee MUST descend with the device (body mounted)
and carry the rope bag, if the bag hasn´t already been dropped to the
ground.
Note! If not necessary, do not stop the descent until you have reached the
ground to minimize the risk of having the rope meet any hot surfaces of
the device.
6.3 BASIC EVACUATION - TOP MOUNTED
1. Attach the rescue rope carabiner to the harness attachment point
(marked with A) or approved body holding device in accordance with
its user instruction. Remove any slack between the you and the device
by pulling the trailing rope downwards. Hold on to the trailing rope
while transferring the load into the device. Carefully swing free of the
platform and ease the grip around the trailing rope to begin the
descent.
Note: Always keep control/grip around the trailing rope as it might be
impossible to regain control if lost. RPX200 EPX200

Warning! The body of the device will accumulate heat from the brake and may be HOT enough to damage the rope if not adminis-
trated correctly. Always use protective gloves when operating the device and rope.
2. Once the rst person-/s have reached the ground and disconnected from the equipment, the next person may hook onto the
trailing rope (which subsequently becomes the rescue rope) using the carabiner at the end (or making a gure of 8 knot if the
equipment length is not site specic depending on rope length and descent height).
Warning! If a gure of 8 knot is used instead of the end carabiner always ensure that it is place on the correct end, if wrongfully
placed the descent may be blocked by the knot. Always pull through an extra meter or two on the former rescue rope to ensure
room for the knot to ensure that next evacuee reaches the ground. The lowering process described with continuous lowering of
several evacuees one after the other is called “shuttling”. When evacuating several persons ensure that this complies with the
maximum descent and load according to the specication under technical data.
6.4 BASIC EVACUATION - BODY MOUNTED
1. Attach the rescue rope carabiner to the anchor point. Attach the device carabiner to the harness attachment point (marked
with A) or approved body holding device in accordance with its user instruction. Remove any slack between you and the
device by pulling the trailing rope upwards. Hold on to the trailing rope while transferring the load into the device. Carefully
swing free of the platform and ease the grip around the trailing rope to begin the descent.
Note! If possible, try to position the device so the handwheel faces away from the user-/s to minimize risk of injuries.
2. To decrease or manually control the descent speed e.g. in narrow spaces, add friction by passing the rope thru the friction loop
and rope groove of the device.
6.5 BASIC LIFTING - TOP MOUNTED
1. Attach the equipment to an anchor point directly via the device carabiner or with a anchor sling at least 1 meter above the
casualty.
2. Pull out the rescue rope so you can attach it to the casualty’s harness (upper attachment point).
3. Remove any slack between you and the device by pulling the trailing rope downwards.
4. Pull the trailing rope through the friction loop and insert the rope into the rope clamp and tighten.
5. Start to lift by turning the handwheel in clockwise direction with two hands. Frequently tighten the slack between the friction
loop and rope clamp. Approx. after every 10 turns on the handwheel.
Note! Secure if necessary the trailing rope around the device to eliminate the risk of unintentional descent.
6. Free the casualty from its fall arrest
7. Start the control descent by releasing the trailing rope from the rope clamp by pulling it outwards.
Warning! Never let go of the trailing rope as it could be difcult to regain control if lost.

3.1 ANVÄND/FÖRKONTROLL
1. OBS! Före användning av utrustningen ska dess funktion och skick alltid kontrolleras för att säkerställa säker användning. Om
utrustningen lagras i Crestos vakuumlösning räcker det att kontrollera att vakuumet fortfarande är intakt. Om vakuumlösningen
skulle ha punkterats, ska utrustningens funktion och skick kontrolleras före användning.
2. Kontrollera att alla markeringar på enheten och repänden är läsbara.
3. Kontrollera repet i hela dess längd för eventuella tecken på nötning, varierande tjocklek, snitt, kontakt med kemikalier –
i synnerhet syror, ändrad form, försämring till föjd av exponering för UV-strålning, stelhet eller andra deformeringar med
permanenta halvknutar. Kontrollera stygnen i repändarna med avseende på lösa trådar eller skador. Kontrollera karbinhakarna
i repet och utrustningen för tecken på betydande korrosion, slitage, deformering, sprickor och begränsad spärrfunktion.
Kontrollera nedrningsbromsen med avseende på sprickor, deformering eller saknade delar. Var observant på eventuella
”wobblande rörelser” hos handratten när du drar repet genom enheten. Testa enhetens bromsfunktion genom att dra
repet genom enheten hårt minst 3 m i vardera riktningen (OBS: bromskraften måste öka med ökad dragkraft). Kontrollera
friktionsslingorna med avseende på deformering. Kontrollera funktionen och fjäderfunktionen hos replåsmekanismen.
Varning! Sluta omedelbart att använda enheten tills en behörig person skriftligen på om det är säkert att använda enheten eller om
den har dämpat ett fall.
Varning! Använd alltid ett fallskyddssystem om det nns en risk för fall vid riggning av utrustningen.
Varning! I ett fallskyddssystem är det viktigt att alltid säkerställa ett fritt fallutrymme under användaren före och efter användning

Varning! Extrema temperaturer kan påverkan enhetens kapacitet.
Varning! Skydda repet mot eventuella kanter som kan äventyra dess integritet.
Varning! Lång nedstigningssträcka med minimal belastning vid stark vind och nedrningsrep påverkar nedstigningshastigheten
eftersom nedrningsrepet kommer att skapa en motkraft.
Varning! Se till att alltid ha en operatör som hanterar enheten när denna är toppmonterad om repet skulle sno sig och blockera
nedstigningen. Den person/de personer som evakueras sist måste montera utrustningen på kroppen för att behålla kontrollen.
Varning! Vid nedstigning kommer handratten att snurra snabbt och kan orsaka brännskador.
Varning! Se upp så att din hand eller ngrarna inte hamnar innanför ratten när denna snurrar. Detta kan orsaka allvarliga skador.
Obs! Placera alltid enheten så att handratten inte kommer i kontakt med någon struktur eftersom detta kan bromsa upp
nedstigningen eller göra att det helt tar stopp.
Kompatibel med PPE-komponenter i EN, ANSI eller CSA avsedda för ändamålet
Obs! Detta måste alltid ske i samband med de nationella och lokala kraven
Anslut endast till en struktur med en minsta hållfasthet på 12 kN eller som är avsedd för ändamålet. Sträva efter att placera
enheten så högt ovanför som möjligt och skydda mot kanter som kan skada repet.
För användning tillsammans med fallskyddssele EN361, räddningssele EN1497 eller räddningsslingor EN1498.
Se bruksanvisningen för selen för korrekt fastsättning av utrustningen.
