Care to be taken that the load carrying end of the rope is situated by the pulley and the free end of the rope by carabiner.

Now the Descender is ready to use Then twist the ropes around the pulley between the upper end of either flange and thus embrace the pulley with the rope. Be careful that the jamming drive is located between either rope. Eventually move the pivoting pulley back in the device and thus the rope is installed in the descender. If the rope has not been inserted correctly the device will be of no use and will be unable to perform its function.
