This allows for manipulation of heavy loads in lowering or hauling systems and can be used in either the primary system or back-up belay. The Maestro allows for adaptive rescue operations depending on the rescue senario.

The handle also includes a hole, allowing for installation of a distance control cord. There is a lower connection point also which can be used to create different types of hauling systems.
The integrated pulley has a large diameter sheave on sealed ball bearings giving 95% working efficiency. The Maestro also has a hauling load limit of 250kg, perfect for rescue operations.
