Put On and Take off Your Crampons Carefully

  • You should always put on and take off your crampons while sitting down or leaning against something stable, to avoid losing your balance or injuring yourself.
  • Make sure that your boots are clean and dry before attaching your crampons, to avoid slipping or freezing.
  • You should also check that your crampons are securely attached and aligned with your boots before standing up or walking.
  • Ensure the straps are not pulled too hard, just enough to secure them to your boots. This is particularly true for models with rubber front and rear harness seats.
  • Check to ensure they are sitting in place and straps are secure while using. Straps and seating of the crampon in your boot can shift as you move.

Important Use Notes:

  • After you use your crampons, you need to check and maintain them regularly, to ensure that they are in good condition and ready for the next use.
  • You should inspect your crampons for any damage, wear or rust, and repair or replace any broken or worn parts.
  • Also ensure you clean your crampons of any dirt, ice or snow, and dry them thoroughly before storing them.
  • You should also sharpen your points periodically, using a file or a grinder, to keep them sharp and effective.
  • If you are storing them for the season, coat them with a light oil or a water-displacement spray such as WD-40 to prevent them from rusting.
