Wherever possible, ropes should be stored on pallets in places that are clean, dry, and protected against strong solar radiation. If ropes are stored outdoors for a short term, the plastic foil covers should be checked for condensation and the ingress of air at regular intervals.

Moving the ropes
Transport the rope preferably on a reel. Use suitable means for a safe transport of the reel. Coiled rope sections are best transported by means of a lifting belt. Avoid contact of the rope with hard surfaces. The ropes should not be loaded by their own weight.
