Using the Mad Rock Lifeguard belay device is straightforward. First, make sure your single rope is between 8.9mm and 11mm. Thread the rope through the device following classic belay techniques. When belaying a climber, keep a firm grip on the device and the rope at all times. As an assisted braking device, it will help you manage the rope more easily, but you still need to pay attention. Always check the device for any signs of wear or damage before each use. If you notice any issues, don't use it and get it inspected or replaced. To maintain it, simply clean it with a dry cloth after use. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or extreme temperatures as this can affect its performance and durability.
