General Information - SKYLOTEC SPEED Instrucciones De Uso

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

Please read and ensure you understand all the instructions provided with the product before use.
The follow-on fall arrest devices SPEED and SPEED ATTACH (hereafter referred to as runners) are connected to a fixed ladder/
rail to provide a climbing protection system, enabling safe ascent or descent to or from high or low working areas.
Each runner can be used by a maximum of one person, with a user weight of 50 to 150kg. (User weight = person including
equipment and tools). The weight of the user without equipment and tools must not fall below the minimum nominal load.
Components of a complete system may only be replaced with components from the relevant system. The runners must be
marked with the name plate of the relevant fall arrest system and may only be used with this system. Arbitrary modifications
or repairs are not permitted.

If the runners are removable, they must be properly adjusted to the system before use. The correct alignment of the
runners is marked on the device. (pictogram)
EN 353-1
The system should only be used in accordance with its intended use.
The runners must always be attached to the front harness fall arrest eyelet (e.g. EN 361) marked „A". For harnesses with
certified fall-arrest eyelets, this is shown accordingly (A with ladder).
Attach the carabiner to the eyelet. Ensure the carabiner has automatically snapped shut so that the system is safely locked
(TRILOCK).
The use of PPE is governed in Germany by the DGUV 112-198 and DGUV 112-199 regulations in German statutory accident
insurance, as well as by local and industry-specific accident prevention regulations. In other countries, the relevant national
health and safety regulations should be observed.Fall arrest equipment may only be used by people who have been trained to
use it safely and who have the relevant expertise.
Climbing when in a physical condition or constitution that may affect the safety of the user in normal conditions and in emer-
gency situations is not permitted. Before each use, a visual check of the fall arrest system and PPE equipment used alongside
it should be carried out to ensure it is fit for use.
Watch out for hazards and potential impairment of function through exposure to sharp edges, temperatures, chemical substan-
ces, electrical conductivity, cuts, friction, UV light and other climatic conditions.
If the fall-arrest equipment is sold in another country, the reseller must make the instructions for use, maintenance, regular
checking and servicing available in the relevant language.
The harness should always be adjusted correctly to ensure a perfect fit. The harness should not be used when it is loose and if
the harness should loosen during the ascent or descent, it should be readjusted to a safe and correct position.
