Getting Ready For LOLER

[Axeman]

Thanks for the advice everyone.

 

I thought I would mark all of my kit for various reasons one of them includes my sons (One who works full time with me now. Another who will be joining us in a couple of weeks after he leaves school. Another next year and another the year after that. Dad can I borrow this or that’s mine, need I go further).

 

Now I’m showing my age.

 

Got to be worth marking it all I guess. Will be useful to ke track of how long I've had items and more.

 

Thanks for the extra items to list Lancstree

No problem. A list like this is useful for me since I'm going on the LOLER inspectors course this year. Any more to add anyone?

I have two boys, think one will defiantly join me,not sure about the other. I want mine to go to college but, they may not want to.

I found out the hard way m8. I kept going on to my oldest to do this and do that but at a later date it all blew back in my face. Now I let the others make their own minds up on how they want to enter the real world.

 

A little advice on the way shouldnt harm and should keep them on the right track though

As far as i'm aware (i'm not a LOLER inspector) the pantin isn't reqired as its not part of life support. it can't be used as main or backup life support as it has no locking mechanisim to keep the rope in teh body of the device. I've been told its a climbing aid like spikes.

Why would you add this to the list? I do not include mine

 

Think of the item in front of you's use- is it used as life-support or rigging in any way? If yes include it.
