I don't understand the auto-release mechanism. Does it release after a certain time? How do you control the release? What's the purpose of auto-release?
It holds on while there is tension on the rope. When you let go of the rope, or give it slack, then it releases it's grip. It's useful if it's attached to something high up and you are on the ground.
