It must additionally be noted that rope securing equipment also experiences aging and
wear when correctly used. This applies in particular to textile components. After severe
stress (fall) or a hard knock to this equipment (e.g. against asphalt, rocks, metal) the
entire equipment subjected to the stress must be taken out of use and must undergo a
precise inspection as follows:
- a device which exhibits deformation, pitting or even tears must be taken out of use
immediately and subjected to careful inspection by a person authorised in writing to
undertake this (information: www.Climb-art.com ) or should be disposed of such that
renewed use can be excluded;
- the renewal of the body of the equipment and installation of non-damaged or new
components is permissible taking the respective assembly instructions into account;
- the equipment may only be deployed again following a concluding functional check;
- all components associated with severe stress usage, such as ropes, lanyards, belt,
connecting elements and anchoring systems, must be inspected or renewed in
accordance with the respective manufacturer specifications.
ART component design
Since the essential parts of ART devices are replaceable, the user can renew damaged or
worn elements. The precise position, name and attachment can be taken from the exploded
assembly drawing and the description attached to the respective spare part. Every
replacement of device components must be documented. When components are reused
the service life identification (year of manufacture) must be heeded.
Components which comprise several individual parts, but which are depicted as a whole in
the exploded assembly drawing, may not be disassembled by the user. Screw connections
provided with a coloured seal may not be unscrewed by the user.
If the equipment begins to slip in the blocked position, the friction clutch must be replaced.
If the device slips in spite of the new friction clutch, the counterpart
(Pos. 19, page 18, 20) must also be replaced.
If doubts nevertheless remain about the perfect state of the equipment, these must be
referred immediately to Hubert Kowalewski e.K. or to one of the sites it has authorised in
writing.
Warranty
Hubert Kowalewski e.K. issues a warranty for manufacturing, functional and material faults
for a period of 2 years. This warranty, however, excludes all normal wear and tear through
use, oxidation and manipulation, as well as all damage which can be attributed to the effects
of impact, accidents and errors which have occurred during servicing, overhauling, storage,
