The Onyx is not designed to replace a pulley in every rigging application.
Acceptable Uses: The Onyx should ONLY be used in the following configurations
" Redirection Pulley in Rapid Ascent and Descent (RAD) configurations.
" Traveling Pulley for Mechanical Advantage Systems to be used towards the load, ahead of a
suitable progress capture device for the raising system.
" Change of direction behind the systems main progress
capture
Unacceptable Uses: This is NOT an exhaustive list
" Used as an Elevated Change of Direction
" Highline/skate block applications
" As a connector for a climbing system
" Terminating a rope onto the bottom of the frame
" All uses not strictly outlined in the acceptable uses section
WARNING: THE ONYX IS NOT DESIGNED OR INTENDED TO REPLACE A PULLEY IN EVERY RIGGING APPLICATION.
Orientation of the Onyx should be carefully monitored during use to ensure that the carabiner is loaded in-line along the major axis. Ensure
the rope does not become loaded below the gate"s rivet (minor axis) while moving.
" The bottom of the carabiner frame, below the pulley, is not a becket and shall
