Care, Maintenance, and Storage

There is an indefinite lifespan of the product under condition that the product undergoes regular inspection of the product per the manufacture and as required by local regulations. Any product that does not pass inspection must be removed from service immediately regardless of its age.

The following factors reduce the performance of the product and its lifespan: incorrect storage, incorrect use, wear and tear, contact with chemicals (acids and alkalis), exposure to high temperatures and UV radiation. More frequent inspections are required in these environments.

If required, the THLL turnbuckle, lifeline and connectors may be cleaned using a damp cloth and warm water (max 105°F / 40°C) and allowed to dry naturally before use. Excessive build-up of dirt, paint, etc. can compromise both line tension and strength of the system.

Product must be stored in a cool, dry, clean environment, away from heat, steam, harmful fumes, corrosive agents, rodents, dust, oil, and direct sunlight. During transportation, the device shall be protected to prevent damage or contamination. Examine the THLL after long periods of storage prior to returning it to service.

Lubricate threads with a light oil to maintain good working order and to protect against corrosion. Follow lubricant manufacturer’s instruction. Do not over-lubricate. Wipe excess with a clean, dry cloth.
