Quick LOLER question.

[Mesterh]

Am I required to get krabs on chainsaw/tool strops LOLER inspected?

 

No doubt been covered somewhere but I didnt look very hard

[skyhuck]

Yes, annually with your rigging gear, not 6 monthly with your climbing gear.

Cheers

 

Actually strops with krabs on seem to disappear on a fairly regular basis, so I doubt many would even reach 12 months before being replaced!

well done that man:thumbup:

though i generally do them every 6 months as there usually in the climbing bag

and end up getting missed if not

so do saw strops get inspected with lowering gear ??

[bob]

yes basically if for life support every 6 months

holding lowering lifting ect 12 months

thnks bob , i have never had my saw strops or carabs for my tool strops inspected , best i do so:blushing:

I did used to inspect them, ooops sry 'get' them inspected every 6 months with the climbing gear, but since I'm getting lazier I thought I would find out if I had to inspect them or not.

 

Since on the subject of rigging, do rigging, holding Krabs have to be 3 way or will the kwiklock style work? I wont even bother with the screwgate since they are too slow to use anyway.
