Cleaning and Storage

If required, the SRL exterior and lifelines may be cleaned using a damp cloth and warm water (max 40°C), and allowed to dry naturally before use. Excessive build-up of dirt, paint etc. can compromise both retraction and strength of the lifeline.

Store or transport the SRL 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 SRL after long periods of storage prior to returning it to service.

Moving parts of snaphooks and carabiners may require periodic lubrication with low viscosity penetrating oil. Follow lubricant manufacturer’s instruction. Do not over-lubricate. Wipe excess with a clean, dry cloth.
