The idea of the GOTCHA™ is to provide a rescue kit that will
enable a rescuer to:
- Attach a casualty who is suspended by a fall arrest
lanyard.
- Raise the casualty in order to release their current
attachment.
- Raise or lower the casualty to a point of safety.
The above capabilities are all achievable without the need
for the rescuer to access the casualty. In order to carry out
this therescuer must be able to access the point at which the
casualty anchored their lanyard. The control feature of the
rescue kitlocks automatically if released.
The GOTCHA™ will be used in two different modes
depending upon whether the anchor point is at the rescuers
foot level orabove (ideally 1.5m above to have any material
effect), as this has important effects.
If the anchor is at foot level then the system will not be able
to raise the casualty sufficiently to bring them back to their
startpoint. The casualty must be raised in order to release
their lanyard then lowered to safety. Also the rescuer is
required to usetheir strength when raising the casualty, so
the mechanical advantage is greater (4:1).
If the anchor is 1.5m above foot level, preferably at head
height it will be possible to raise the casualty to their start
point. Forthis the rescuer is able to use their weight to assist
in the operation and therefore the mechanical advantage is
lower (3:1).

Keep these instructions, or a copy with the GOTCHA™ to aid
future inspection, and examination.
The equipment must be given a visual and tactile inspection
when delivered to site/works, and before every use.
SpanSet recommends recorded inspection by a competent
person every 6 months.
Particular attention should be paid to the following:-
Metal-ware – Inspect for signs of damage/distortion/
corrosion, and correct operation & locking of connectors.
Rope* – Examine for any signs of wear/ abrasion, including
interstrand wear, unravelling, extension and fusion.
* Local abrasion as distinct from general wear may be
caused by the passage of the rope over sharp edges or
protrusions whileunder tension and may cause serious loss
of strength. Slight damage to outer fibres and occasional
yarn may be consideredharmless but any reduction in
diameter of the rope or serious distortion to the sheath
pattern should lead to rejection.
All Personal Protective Equipment should be immediately
removed from service after being subjected to any shock, or
there isany doubt about its condition. (See list above)
The GOTCHA™ may be cleaned if required. The following
procedure mustbe adhered to. Use a mild detergent with
hand hot water, using a cloth, or sponge to wipe the
GOTCHA™ and avoid over wetting. This procedure should
then be repeated withclean water to rinse, then allow to dry
naturally away from any direct heat source. If you require
more information pleasecontact SpanSet.
All equipment should be stored and transported in the
following manner:
• To prevent contact with sharp objects.
• Away from harmful substances.
• In a cool dry place free from direct sunlight.

Gotcha Distanz-
Rettungsvorrichtung
Die Idee des GOTCHA™ ist eine Rettungsvorrichtung, die
dem Retter ermöglicht:
- Einen Verunglückten zu sichern, der an einer
Fallsicherungsleine hängt.
- Den Verunglückten zu heben und ihn vom ursprünglichen
Gurt zu befreien.
- Einen Verunglückten an einer höher oder tiefer gelegenen
Stelle in Sicherheit zu bringen.
Die oben genannten Möglichkeiten sind alle nutzbar, ohne
dass der Retter in der Lage sein müsste, zum Verunglückten
zu gelangen. Der Retter muss nur imstande sein, den Punkt
zu erreichen, an dem der Verunglückte seine Leine verankert
hat. Das Sperrelement der Rettungsvorrichtung verriegelt
sich beim versehentlichen Auslösen automatisch.
Der GOTCHA™ kann zweifach eingesetzt werden: je
nachdem, ob der Ankerpunkt sich auf Bodenhöhe des Retters
befindet oder über ihm(idealerweise 1,5 m über ihm, um die
Wirkung voll zu entfalten). Es gibt hier wichtige Unterschiede.
Bei einem Anker auf Bodenhöhe des Retters kann die
Vorrichtung den Verunglückten nicht hoch genug anheben,
um ihn zumAusgangspunkt zurückzubringen. Der Verunglückte
muss erst angehoben werden, um seine Leine zu lösen und
dann zu einer sicherenStelle abgeseilt werden. Der nötige
Krafteinsatz des Retters beim Anheben des Verunglückten
ergibt eine mechanische Kraftverstärkungvon 4:1.
Bei einem Anker 1,5 m über dem Boden – vorzugsweise
auf Kopfhöhe –ist es möglich, den Verunglückten zu
seinem Ausgangspunkt zurückzubringen. Der Retter kann
den Vorgang mit seinem Gewicht unterstützen, sodass die
mechanische Kraftverstärkung geringer ist(3:1).
The idea of the GOTCHA™ is to provide a rescue kit that will enable a rescuer to:
•Attach a casualty who is suspended by a fall arrest lanyard.
•Raise the casualty in order to release their current attachment.
•Raise or lower the casualty to a point of safety.
The above capabilities are all achievable without the need for the rescuer to access the casualty. In order to carry out this the
rescuer must be able to access the point at which the casualty anchored their lanyard. The control feature of the rescue kit
locks automatically if released.
The GOTCHA™ will be used in two different modes depending upon whether the anchor point is at the rescuers foot level o
r
above (ideally 1.5m above to have any material effect), as this has important effects.
If the anchor is at foot level then the system will not be able to raise the casualty sufficiently to bring them back to their start
point. The casualty must be raised in order to release their lanyard then lowered to safety. Also the rescuer is required to use
their strength when raising the casualty, so the mechanical advantage is greater (4:1).
If the anchor is 1.5m above foot level, preferably at head height it will be possible to raise the casualty to their start point. Fo
r
this the rescuer is able to use their weight to assist in the operation and therefore the mechanical advantage is lower (3:1).

Rettungsvorrichtung
14. Nach der Gewichtsverlagerung des Verunglückten auf
GOTCHA™ kann seine Leine abgenommen werden.
15. Der Verunglückte kann wie folgt abgeseilt werden.
16. Zum Abseilen des Verunglückten muss der Retter das
ausdem GRIGRI austretende Seil fassen und damit das
Abseilenkontrollieren.
17. Mit der anderen Hand wird der schwarze Griff am
GRIGRIgelöst, bis das Seil kontrolliert abgewickelt werden
kann.So wird der Verunglückte abgeseilt. (Bitte den
Hinweisbeachten)
HINWEIS: Zur Durchführung einer Rettung benötigt
der Retter einen Gurt mit einem vorderen Ankerpunkt
für die Befestigung des GRIGRI. Wenn der Ankerpunkt
für GOTCHA™ nur ein Abseilen des Verunglückten
zulässt, muss die Länge des Seils der Vorrichtung
das Vierfache des Abstands vom Anker zur sicheren
Bergungsstelle betragen.
Bewahren Sie diese Anleitungen oder eine Kopie mit dem
GOTCHA™ für zukünftige Prüfungen und Untersuchungen
auf. Die Ausrüstung muss bei der Lieferung an
Arbeitsstellen/Werke sowie vor jedem Einsatz einer
visuellen und taktilen Prüfung unterzogenwerden.
SpanSet empfiehlt alle 6 Monate eine dokumentierte
Inspektion durch einen Spezialisten.
Besondere Aufmerksamkeit ist dabei auf folgendes zu
richten:
Metallteile – Prüfung auf Anzeichen von Schäden/
Verbiegungen/Korrosion und ordnungsgemäße Funktion und
Verriegelung derVerbindungen.
Rope* – Untersuchung auf Anzeichen von Verschleiß/
Abnutzung, einschließlich Verschleiß des Seils, Spliss,
Dehnung undVerschmelzung.
* Punktuelle Abnutzung kann anders als genereller
Verschleiß durch die Führung des Seils über scharfe Kanten
oder Vorsprüngeverursacht werden und die Zugkraft
schwerwiegend beeinträchtigen. Eine leichte Beschädigung
der äußeren Fasern und sporadischerSpliss können noch als
unschädlich gelten; eine Abnahme des Seildurchmessers
oder gravierende Deformationen des Flechtmustersmüssen
jedoch zur Rückweisung führen.
Persönliche Schutzausrüstung muss unverzüglich
ausgemustert werden, wenn sie schweren Schlägen oder
Stößen ausgesetzt war oderwenn Zweifel an ihrem Zustand
bestehen. (Siehe die Punkte oben)
Der GOTCHA™ kann im Bedarfsfall gereinigt werden. Die
folgenden Maßnahmen müssendabei beachtet werden:
Verwenden Sie ein mildes Reinigungsmittel in lauwarmem
Wasser und wischen Sie den GOTCHA™ mit einem Tuch oder
Schwamm ab. Er darf dabei nichtübermäßig nass werden.
Dieser Vorgang muss zum Abspülen mit klarem Wasser
wiederholt werden. Dann wird die Vorrichtung an derLuft
getrocknet – keiner direkten Wärmequelle aussetzen. Sollten
Sie weitere Informationen benötigen, wenden Sie sich bitte
an SpanSet.

Kit De Rescate A
Distancia Gotcha
El GOTCHA™ está pensado para proporcionar un kit de
rescate que permitirá al rescatador:
- Asegurar a una víctima suspendida por un cordón
anticaídas.
- Elevar a una víctima para poder soltarla del cordón al que
está sujeta.
- Elevar o descender a la víctima hasta un punto seguro.
Las posibilidades anteriormente descritas pueden realizarse
sin necesidad de que el rescatador acceda hasta la víctima.
Parapoder hacer esto, el rescatador deberá ser capaz de
acceder al punto en el que la víctima ancló su cordón.
El dispositivo decontrol del kit de rescate se bloquea
automáticamente al soltarlo.
El GOTCHA™ se utilizará de dos maneras distintas,
dependiendo de si el anclaje se encuentra a nivel de los
pies delrescatador o por encima de los mismos (idealmente
a 1,5 m. para que sea efectivo), ya que esto tiene
importantesimplicaciones.
Si el punto de anclaje se encuentra a nivel de los pies, el
sistema no podrá elevar a la víctima lo suficiente como para
volver atraerla al punto de partida. La víctima deberá ser
elevada para poder soltar su cordón y después descenderla
a un puntoseguro. Además, el rescatador deberá utilizar
su fuerza al elevar a la víctima, de manera que la ventaja
mecánica es mayor(4:1).
Si el anclaje se encuentra 1,5 m. por encima del nivel de
los pies, preferentemente a nivel de la cabeza, será posible
elevar ala víctima hasta su punto de partida. Para esto, el
rescatador podrá utilizar su peso para ayudar en al operación
y, por lo tanto,la ventaja mecánica es menor (3:1).
The idea of the GOTCHA™ is to provide a rescue kit that will enable a rescuer to:
•Attach a casualty who is suspended by a fall arrest lanyard.
•Raise the casualty in order to release their current attachment.
•Raise or lower the casualty to a point of safety.
The above capabilities are all achievable without the need for the rescuer to access the casualty. In order to carry out this the
rescuer must be able to access the point at which the casualty anchored their lanyard. The control feature of the rescue kit
locks automatically if released.
The GOTCHA™ will be used in two different modes depending upon whether the anchor point is at the rescuers foot level o
r
above (ideally 1.5m above to have any material effect), as this has important effects.
If the anchor is at foot level then the system will not be able to raise the casualty sufficiently to bring them back to their start
point. The casualty must be raised in order to release their lanyard then lowered to safety. Also the rescuer is required to use
their strength when raising the casualty, so the mechanical advantage is greater (4:1).
If the anchor is 1.5m above foot level, preferably at head height it will be possible to raise the casualty to their start point. Fo
r
this the rescuer is able to use their weight to assist in the operation and therefore the mechanical advantage is lower (3:1).

above (ideally 1.5m above to have any material effect), as this has important effects.
If the anchor is at foot level then the system will not be able to raise the casualty sufficiently to bring them back to their start
point. The casualty must be raised in order to release their lanyard then lowered to safety. Also the rescuer is required to use
their strength when raising the casualty, so the mechanical advantage is greater (4:1).
If the anchor is 1.5m above foot level, preferably at head height it will be possible to raise the casualty to their start point. Fo
r
this the rescuer is able to use their weight to assist in the operation and therefore the mechanical advantage is lower (3:1).

The idea of the GOTCHA™ is to provide a rescue kit that will enable a rescuer to:
•Attach a casualty who is suspended by a fall arrest lanyard.
•Raise the casualty in order to release their current attachment.
•Raise or lower the casualty to a point of safety.
The above capabilities are all achievable without the need for the rescuer to access the casualty. In order to carry out this the
rescuer must be able to access the point at which the casualty anchored their lanyard. The control feature of the rescue kit
locks automatically if released.

NOTA: Para llevar a cabo un rescate, el rescatador
necesitará un arnés con punto de enganche delantero
donde colocar el GRIGRI. Si el punto de anclaje del
GOTCHA™ se encuentra de tal manera que sólo se
puede descender a la víctima, entonces la longitud de la
cuerda del kit deberá ser cuatro veces más larga que la
distancia entre el anclaje y el punto seguro.
Guarde estas instrucciones, o una copia de las mismas,
junto con el GOTCHA™ para asistir en futuras inspecciones
yverificaciones.
El equipo debe inspeccionarse táctil y visualmente en el
momento de su entrega al puesto de trabajo y antes de cada
uso.
SpanSet recomienda una inspección semestral realizada y
registrada por una persona competente.
Se deberá prestar especial atención a lo siguiente:
Piezas metálicas – Inspeccionar posibles daños/distorsión/
corrosión y corregir el funcionamiento y bloqueo de los
conectores.
Cordage* – Inspeccionar posibles marcas de
desgaste/abrasión, incluidos desgastes “interhebra”,
desmarañamiento,extensión y fusión.
* La abrasión local, a diferencia del desgaste general, puede
producirse al pasar la cuerda sobre bordes agudos o salientes
mientras ésta esté en tensión y puede afectar seriamente a su
resistencia. Se pueden considerar inofensivos losdeshilachados
en las fibras externas, pero cualquier reducción del diámetro
de la cuerda o una distorsión severa del dibujo dela funda debe
ser motivo suficiente para su rechazo.
Todo Equipo de Protección Personal deberá ser retirado

Kit De Sauvetage
À Distance Gotcha
Le principe du système GOTCHA™ est de fournir un kit de
sauvetage qui permette à un
sauveteur :
- d’attacher une victime suspendue à une longe antichute ;
- de relever la victime afin de détacher l’équipement qui la
retient ;
- de relever ou de descendre la victime vers un point de
sécurité.
Toutes ces fonctions peuvent être utilisées sans que le
sauveteur ne soit obligé d’accéder à la victime. Pour ce
faire, lesauveteur doit pouvoir accéder au point d’ancrage
de la longe qui retient la victime. La fonction de contrôle du
kit de sauvetagese verrouille automatiquement en cas de
relâchement.
Le système GOTCHA™ est utilisé dans deux modes
différents, selon que le point d’ancrage se trouve au niveau
des pieds dusauveteur ou au-dessus (de façon idéale, à 1,5 m
au-dessus afin d’avoir un effet matériel quelconque), car cela
a desconséquences importantes.
Si le point d’ancrage se situe au niveau des pieds de
l’utilisateur, le système n’est pas en mesure de relever
suffisamment lavictime pour la ramener à son point de
départ. La victime doit être relevée afin de détacher sa longe,
puis descendue pour êtremise en sécurité. Le sauveteur doit
également utiliser sa force pour relever la victime, de telle
sorte que l’avantage mécaniquesoit supérieur (4:1).
Si l’ancrage se situe à 1,5 m au-dessus du niveau des
pieds de l’utilisateur, de préférence à la hauteur de sa tête,
il estpossible de relever la victime au point de départ de
celle-ci. Pour ce faire, le sauveteur doit être capable d’utiliser
son poidscomme aide dans l’intervention, et donc l’avantage
mécanique est inférieur (3:1).
The idea of the GOTCHA™ is to provide a rescue kit that will enable a rescuer to:
•Attach a casualty who is suspended by a fall arrest lanyard.
•Raise the casualty in order to release their current attachment.
•Raise or lower the casualty to a point of safety.
The above capabilities are all achievable without the need for the rescuer to access the casualty. In order to carry out this the
rescuer must be able to access the point at which the casualty anchored their lanyard. The control feature of the rescue kit
locks automatically if released.
The GOTCHA™ will be used in two different modes depending upon whether the anchor point is at the rescuers foot level o
r
above (ideally 1.5m above to have any material effect), as this has important effects.
If the anchor is at foot level then the system will not be able to raise the casualty sufficiently to bring them back to their start
point. The casualty must be raised in order to release their lanyard then lowered to safety. Also the rescuer is required to use
their strength when raising the casualty, so the mechanical advantage is greater (4:1).
If the anchor is 1.5m above foot level, preferably at head height it will be possible to raise the casualty to their start point. Fo
r
this the rescuer is able to use their weight to assist in the operation and therefore the mechanical advantage is lower (3:1).

15. La victime peut alors être descendue en procédant comme
suit :
16. Pour descendre la victime, le sauveteur doit tenir la corde
qui sort du GRIGRI, afin de contrôler la descente.
17. De l’autre main, il relâche la poignée noire du GRIGRI
jusqu’à ce que la corde puisse être alimentée à une vitesse
pouvant être contrôlée. Ceci permet de descendre la
victime. (Voir remarque)
REMARQUE : Pour transporter une victime, le sauveteur
doit avoir un harnais avec un point de fixation à l’avant
pour placer le GRIGRI.
Si le point d’ancrage du système GOTCHA™ est situé
de telle sorte que la victime doit être descendue, la
longueur de la corde dans le kit doit être égale à quatre
fois la distance entre le point d’ancrage et le point de
sécurité.
Conserver les présentes instructions ou une copie de celles-ci
avec le système GOTCHA™ à des fins d’aide en vue d’une
inspectionet d’un examen ultérieurs.
L’équipement doit subir une inspection visuelle et tactile
au moment de sa livraison sur site, ainsi qu’avant chaque
utilisation.
SpanSet recommande la tenue d’une inspection enregistrée par
une personne compétente tous les 6 mois.
Une attention particulière doit être apportée aux éléments
suivants :
Éléments en métal: Détection des signes de dégradation
/ déformation / corrosion, et vérification du fonctionnement
correct etdu bon verrouillage des fixations.
Corde*: Détection des signes quelconques d’usure / abrasion,
y compris usure entre les brins, effilochage,étirement et fusion.
* L’abrasion localisée, distincte de l’usure générale, peut être
causée par le passage de la corde sur des bords coupants ou
dessaillies lorsqu’elle est sous tension, et peut entraîner une
perte importante de solidité. Les détériorations légères des
fibres extérieureset un effilochage occasionnel peuvent être
considérés comme étant sans gravité, mais toute réduction
du diamètre de la corde ou unedistorsion importante de
l’aspect de la gaine doivent conduire à une mise au rebut de
l’équipement.
Tous les équipements de protection individuelle doivent être
immédiatement retirés du service après avoir subi un choc
quelconque,ou bien s’il existe un doute concernant leur état.
(Voir liste ci-dessus)
Le système GOTCHA™ peut être nettoyé si nécessaire. La
procédure suivante doit être respectée à la lettre : Utiliser
un détergentdoux et laver à la main à l’eau chaude ; essuyer
le système GOTCHA™ à l’aide d’un chiffon ou d’une éponge
et éviter de le mouillerplus que nécessaire. Cette procédure
doit être répétée avec de l’eau propre à des fins de rinçage ;
ensuite, laisser sécher à l’air libre àl’écart de toute source de
chaleur directe. Pour plus d’informations, veuillez contacter
SpanSet.
Tous les équipements doivent être stockés et transportés de la
manière suivante :
- Éviter les contacts avec des objets tranchants.
- Placer à l’écart des substances nocives.
- Conserver dans un endroit frais et sec à l’abri d’une
exposition directe à la lumière du soleil.

Kit di salvataggio
remoto Gotcha
Il fine di GOTCHA™ è quello di fornire un kit di salvataggio
che consenta a un soccorritore di:
- Agganciare un infortunato sospeso a un cordino
anticaduta.
- Sollevare l’infortunato per poterlo liberare dall’attrezzatura
corrente.
- Sollevare o abbassare l’infortunato fino a un punto di
sicurezza.
Tutto ciò senza che il soccorritore debba avere accesso al
punto in cui si trova l’infortunato. Per poter realizzare tale
operazione il soccorritore deve essere in grado di accedere
al punto in cui l’infortunato ha ancorato il suo cordino.
La funzione di controllo del kit di salvataggio si blocca
automaticamente se rilasciata.
Il kit GOTCHA™ verrà utilizzato in due modalità diverse a
seconda del fatto che il punto di ancoraggio si trovi a livello
del piede dei soccorritori o sopra (idealmente 1,5 m sopra per
avere effetto materiale), in quanto ciò ha effetti importanti.
Se l’ancoraggio è a livello del piede, il sistema non sarà in
grado di sollevare sufficientemente l’infortunato per riportarlo
nella posizione iniziale. L’infortunato deve essere sollevato
per poter liberare il suo cordino, quindi abbassato fino a un
punto di sicurezza. Il soccorritore deve inoltre utilizzare la
propria forza quando solleva l’infortunato, in modo da avere
un vantaggio meccanico maggiore (4:1).
Se l’ancoraggio si trova a 1,5 m sopra il livello del piede,
preferibilmente all’altezza della testa, sarà possibile
sollevare l’infortunato fino al punto iniziale. A tale scopo
il soccorritore è in grado di utilizzare il proprio peso per
compiere l’operazione e pertanto il vantaggio meccanico è
inferiore (3:1).
The idea of the GOTCHA™ is to provide a rescue kit that will enable a rescuer to:
•Attach a casualty who is suspended by a fall arrest lanyard.
•Raise the casualty in order to release their current attachment.
•Raise or lower the casualty to a point of safety.
The above capabilities are all achievable without the need for the rescuer to access the casualty. In order to carry out this the
rescuer must be able to access the point at which the casualty anchored their lanyard. The control feature of the rescue kit
locks automatically if released.
The GOTCHA™ will be used in two different modes depending upon whether the anchor point is at the rescuers foot level o
r
above (ideally 1.5m above to have any material effect), as this has important effects.
If the anchor is at foot level then the system will not be able to raise the casualty sufficiently to bring them back to their start
point. The casualty must be raised in order to release their lanyard then lowered to safety. Also the rescuer is required to use
their strength when raising the casualty, so the mechanical advantage is greater (4:1).
If the anchor is 1.5m above foot level, preferably at head height it will be possible to raise the casualty to their start point. Fo
r
this the rescuer is able to use their weight to assist in the operation and therefore the mechanical advantage is lower (3:1).

The idea of the GOTCHA™ is to provide a rescue kit that will enable a rescuer to:
•Attach a casualty who is suspended by a fall arrest lanyard.
•Raise the casualty in order to release their current attachment.
•Raise or lower the casualty to a point of safety.
The above capabilities are all achievable without the need for the rescuer to access the casualty. In order to carry out this the
rescuer must be able to access the point at which the casualty anchored their lanyard. The control feature of the rescue kit
locks automatically if released.
The GOTCHA™ will be used in two different modes depending upon whether the anchor point is at the rescuers foot level o
r
above (ideally 1.5m above to have any material effect), as this has important effects.
If the anchor is at foot level then the system will not be able to raise the casualty sufficiently to bring them back to their start
point. The casualty must be raised in order to release their lanyard then lowered to safety. Also the rescuer is required to use
their strength when raising the casualty, so the mechanical advantage is greater (4:1).
If the anchor is 1.5m above foot level, preferably at head height it will be possible to raise the casualty to their start point. Fo
r
this the rescuer is able to use their weight to assist in the operation and therefore the mechanical advantage is lower (3:1).

Ancoraggio superiore a 1,5 m sopra il livello del piede.
1. Accedere al punto di ancoraggio dell’infortunato.
2. Fissare l’imbracatura di ancoraggio a un punto di
ancoraggio adeguato sopra l’infortunato.
3. Il peso dei soccorritori viene utilizzato per agevolare
l’operazione. La doppia puleggia viene agganciata
all’imbracatura di ancoraggio.
4. Regolare l’asta in base alla lunghezza necessaria.
5. Fissare la clip rossa all’estremità dell’asta e agganciare la
puleggia singola alla cinghia.
6. Regolare le corde tra le pulegge alla stessa lunghezza
dell’asta.
7. Impostare la clip rossa sulla posizione aperta.
8. Utilizzando l’asta, fissare la clip rossa all’attrezzatura di
imbracatura dell’infortunato.
9. Rimuovere l’asta dalla clip rossa.
10. Attaccare il GRIGRI all’imbracatura dei soccorritori.
11. Tirare la corda allentata attraverso il GRIGRI per
tensionare il sistema.
12. Il soccorritore adesso è seduto e solleva l’infortunato.
13. Con una mano il soccorritore tiene la corda sopra il
GRIGRI, vicino all’imbracatura dell’attrezzatura. Con
l’altra mano tiene la corda allentata mentre è in piedi.
14. Una volta trasferito il peso dell’infortunato al GOTCHA™,
il suo cordino può essere staccato.

15. L’infortunato può adesso essere sollevato al punto di
sicurezza o abbassato come segue.
16. Per abbassare l’infortunato il soccorritore deve tenere la
corda che esce dal GRIGRI in modo da controllare la
discesa.
17. Con l’altra mano rilascia l’impugnatura nera sul GRIGRI
fino a che la corda può essere rilasciata a una velocità
controllabile. In questo modo l’infortunato viene
abbassato. (Vedere la nota)
NOTA: per poter eseguire un salvataggio il soccorritore
ha bisogno di un’imbracatura da un punto anteriore
dell’attrezzatura per il posizionamento del GRIGRI.
Se il punto di ancoraggio per il kit GOTCHA™ è tale che
l’infortunato deve essere abbassato, la lunghezza della
corda nel kit deve essere pari a quattro volte la distanza
dall’ancoraggio al punto di sicurezza.

NOTE: In order to carry out a rescue the rescuer requires a harness with a front point of attachment for locating the GRIGRI.
If the anchor point for the GOTCHA™ is such that the casualty must be lowered, then the rope length in the kit must
be four times the distance from the anchorage to the point of safety.
Anchorage at foot level.
1. Access casualty’s anchorage point.
2. Attach the anchor sling to a suitable anchor point
above the casualty.
3. The rescuer will use their legs to help pull in the rope.
The single pulley is clipped to the anchor sling.
4. Adjust pole to the required length.
5. Attach the red clip to the end of the pole, and clip the
double pulley into the webbing.
6. Adjust ropes in-between the pulleys to the same
length as the pole.
7. Set the red clip to open.
8. Using the pole, attach the red clip to the casualty’s
harness attachment.
9. Remove the pole from the red clip.
10. Attach the GRIGRI to the rescuers harness.
11. Pull the slack rope through the GRIGRI to tension the
system, and squat down.
12. The rescuer now stands up, thus raising the casualty.
13. With one hand, the rescuer holds the rope below the
GRIGRI, close to the attachment sling. With the
other hand they take in the slack rope as they squat
down.
14. Once the casualty’s weight has been transferred to
the GOTCHA™ then their lanyard can be
disconnected.
15. The casualty can now be lowered as follows.
16. To lower the casualty the rescuer must take hold o
f
the rope that exits the GRIGRI, and this is used to
control the descent.
17. With the other hand releases the black handle on the
GRIGRI until the rope can be fed at a controllable
speed. This thus lowers the casualty.(Please see

15. L’infortunato può adesso essere abbassato come segue.
16. Per abbassare l’infortunato il soccorritore deve tenere la
corda che esce dal GRIGRI in modo da controllare la
discesa.
17. Con l’altra mano rilascia l’impugnatura nera sul GRIGRI fino
a che la corda può essere rilasciata a una velocità
controllabile. In questo modo l’infortunato viene abbassato.
(Vedere la nota)
NOTA: per poter eseguire un salvataggio il soccorritore
ha bisogno di un’imbracatura da un punto anteriore
dell’attrezzatura per il posizionamento del GRIGRI.
Se il punto di ancoraggio per il kit GOTCHA™ è tale che
l’infortunato deve essere abbassato, la lunghezza della
corda nel kit deve essere pari a quattro volte la distanza
dall’ancoraggio al punto di sicurezza.
Ispezione E Verifica
Conservare le presenti istruzioni o una copia insieme al kit
GOTCHA™: saranno utili per le future ispezioni e verifiche.
L’attrezzatura deve essere sottoposta a un’ispezione visiva
e tattile quando viene consegnata presso il sito/cantiere e
prima di ogni utilizzo. SpanSet consiglia un’ispezione registrata
effettuata da personale competente ogni 6 mesi.
Prestare particolare attenzione a quanto segue:
Parti in metallo: Ispezionare allo scopo di rilevare
eventuali segni di danni/distorsioni/corrosione e verificare il
funzionamento e il bloccaggio corretto dei connettori.
Corda*: Esaminare allo scopo di rilevare eventuali segni
di usura/abrasione, compresa usura tra fili, scioglimento,
allungamento e fusione.
* Abrasione locale diversa dall’usura generale può essere
provocata dal passaggio della corda sopra sporgenze o punti
acuminati mentre è in tensione e può provocare una grave
perdita di resistenza. Un leggero danno alle fibre esterne e in
qualche punto del filato può essere considerato innocuo, ma
una notevole riduzione del diametro della corda o una serie
distorsione del motivo del rivestimento devono comportarne
lo scarto.
Tutti i DPI devono essere immediatamente rimossi dal
servizio dopo essere stati soggetti a urti o in caso di dubbi
sulle loro condizioni. (Vedere l’elenco in alto). Se necessario,
il kit GOTCHA™ può essere pulito. A tale scopo procedere
come segue. Utilizzare detergente delicato con acqua non
eccessivamente calda, utilizzando un panno o una spugna per
pulire il kit GOTCHA™ ed evitare di bagnarlo eccessivamente.
La procedura deve quindi essere ripetuta con acqua pulita per il
risciacquo; lasciare quindi asciugare in modo naturale lontano
da fonti di calore dirette. Per ulteriori informazioni contattare
SpanSet.
Tutta l’attrezzatura deve essere riposta e trasportata come
segue:
- Evitare il contatto con oggetti acuminati.
- Tenere lontano da sostanze nocive.
- Conservare in un luogo asciutto e fresco al riparo dalla luce
del sole diretta.
