Safety Information

Safety Instructions for Splicing and Rope Handling Tools
Rules for Safe Use
Proper Use of Tools

Use the tools (splicers, needles, scissors) exclusively for their intended purposes, such as splicing, cutting, or shaping ropes.
Before starting work, ensure you have the necessary experience or have reviewed the tool handling instructions.
Splicing should be done on a stable surface to minimize the risk of accidental injury or displacement of tools.
Protection Against Injuries

Always keep tools at a safe distance from your body and others to avoid accidental injuries.
Store needles and splicers in a way that minimizes the risk of punctures, e.g., in special protective covers or sheaths.
When working with scissors, ensure the blade is properly closed or covered when not in use.
Regular Tool Inspection Before Use
Tool Condition
Before each use, check that the tools are in good condition. It is particularly important that needles and scissors are sharp and free from visible damage to the blades.
Splicers and needles should be free from rust and material damage that could affect their strength and efficiency.
Ensure that the handles of the tools are sturdy, and no parts are loose.
Cleaning and Maintenance
After each use, particularly after cutting or splicing ropes, clean the tools of any debris, such as rope remnants, dirt, or material residues.
Store tools in a dry place, away from moisture, to prevent rusting of blades and mechanisms.
Regularly lubricate needles and splicers to ensure smooth operation. Use appropriate oils for tool maintenance that will not negatively affect their materials.
Emergency Situations
In case of tool breakage, such as a cracked splicer or damaged needle, immediately stop using the tool and replace it with a new one.
In case of an accident (e.g., needle puncture or scissor injury), immediately treat the wound and consult a doctor if necessary.
If you notice that a tool is damaged or not functioning properly, stop using it until it is repaired or replaced.
Additional Notes
Use the right tool for the right job. For example, use scissors with the proper size and blade for cutting thicker ropes.
When splicing, if using a splicer, always keep the rope in a stable position to avoid accidental punctures, cuts, or injuries.
If the tool is multifunctional (e.g., a splicer with a cutting feature), ensure you use the appropriate parts of the tool for the specific task.
Contact in Case of Issues
If you notice a manufacturing defect or damage to the tool, contact the manufacturer or point of sale. Do not modify the tool yourself in a way that could affect its performance.
