Troubleshooting
Hook does not close fully
Check the hook for debris or obstructions. Clean the mechanism and test again. If the issue persists, the hook may be damaged and require replacement of the lanyard.
Lanyard does not extend smoothly
Gently pull the lanyard to its full extension and allow it to retract. If resistance continues, check for twists or tangles in the lanyard material and carefully straighten them.
