Guest guest Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 Gareth Don't know about limited shelf life. If you get it inspected by the lifting people, slings, hooks etc 6/12ly and keep it out of moisture you should have no problems Best regards N HSEA (Health) Ravenspurn North Desk: 2506 Fax : 2506 Long line: 01964 652506 Paraguard stretcher I don't know if anyone can help me.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 Gareth, We've just recently went through a stage of dissagreements about this. Seemingly the paraguard has only a 10 year self life but the question is whether it can be recertified. I know a safety advisor that is currently trying to get paraguards recertified. Unfortunatly i've moved rigs and don't know what the out-come was. DONNA MAIN CLYDE, MEDIC CLYMED@... Paraguard stretcher I don't know if anyone can help me.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 Hi Gareth, As far as I know, there isnt a " shelf life " as such. The stretcher would need to be stored, maintained and checked as per the manufacturer and any other safety regulations Cheers Ben GARETH THOMAS <gareththomas1@...> wrote:I don't know if anyone can help me.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 Some time ago we had ours sent back to the manufacturer for re-ferb. It cost a blo*dy fortune but was like new when we got them back. Since then we have sacked that type of stretcher and we now use a Ferno type (not good but I feel it is better than the Paraguard).
