The dead rope must never be loaded (in order to avoid
side loading on the Rope Guide). Do not build tramways
using the primary rope as shown in the picture.
Stop immediately when a rope twist is observed, untwist
and organise the rope before continuing.
CAUTION
When descending, make sure the rope is fed neatly into
the Rope Grab so that there are no kinks or twists in the
rope. Take special care when using long ropes to prevent
twists or kinks. Good rope management is ESSENTIAL.
RECOMMENDATION
When descending, hold the rope entering the Ascender
to prevent it from running twisted into the Ascender.
