Inspection prior to use

The following parts must always be in-
spected for their serviceability and safe
state prior to use.
• Fall arrest slider (rollers, bolts, links,
etc.)
• Snap-hooks
• Shock absorber
• Harness and any other products that will
also be used. In this case you must abide
by the instructions given in the respective
user manual.
Fall arrest slider and snap-hooks: No
deformation, rollers, springs and locking
mechanisms are easy to access.
Function: Feed the fall arrest slider into
the rail profi le and test it to check that the
fall arrest slider can be accessed easily
and that it is also locks correctly in place
in the notches.
Shock absorber: The shock absorber
casing must be undamaged and there
must be no signs of cracks, incisions, ab-
rasions, or burning, etc., on the webbing.
Regular inspections (revision)
The FABA™ fall arrest slider, depen-
ding on the working conditions and
how often it is used, must be checked
out by an authorised PSA specialist to
ensure that it is in the correct working
state as necessary or at least once every
12 months. These inspections must be
recorded in the checklist, which must be
kept with the fall arrest slider.

Implementation
You are allowed to use the FABA-
STOP
Grip fall arrest slider with the
following FABA™ climbing pro-
tection systems: A12, AL2, AL2-Mobil,
AL2-Mobil F.
You are not allowed to use an extra
STOP
safety line or an extension instead of
the existing connection between the
FABA™ fall arrest slider and the harness!
1. The FABA™ fall arrest slider and the A12
and AL2 systems are asymmetrically desi-
gned. This asymmetry prevents the fall arrest
slider from being used incorrectly.
2. The FABA™ fall arrest slider must be
attached at the entry and exit points in the
climbing protection rail so that the arrow on
the device always points upwards. Never force
the fall arrest slider into the rail!
3. Move the FABA™ fall arrest slider slightly
upwards and downwards to ensure that it can
move freely and that it also locks into place
correctly.
4. Hang and lock the FABA™ fall arrest
slider's snap-hook into the sternal front
side fall protection fastening point on
the harness (A = sternal attachement point,
admissible fastening point on the harness).
