should be immediately withdrawn from service and destroyed.
4.2) The length should not be adjusted in an area with risk of
falling.

4.3) Please note the overall length of a fastener attached to an
PEANUT (including terminations and fastening elements).
4.4) The maximum forces initiated into the structure in the event
of a fall is max. 6kN.
4.5) Avoid slack rope.
4.6) The anchor point should be perpendicular above the
workplace. If the anchor point is beneath the workplace, a fall
may result in hitting lower lying parts. If the anchor point is on
the side, a fall may result in hitting lateral parts. The height
of the anchor point and the required the effectiveness of the
system (see Figure 2):
Stopping distance of the PEANUT (see Figure 2)
+ Initial length of the fastener (see Figure 3)
+ Body length (see x, Figure 2)
+ safety distance (approx. 1 m see Figure 2)
+ Any stretch of the anchor device (e.g. EN 795 B/C, see
instruction manual of manufacturer). Do not use the PEANUT as
tether, i.e. do not hold on to or pull yourself up on the PEANUT.
5.) Edge suitability
The PEANUT was subjected after the basic principle for
personal fall protection equipment for use in work baskets of
mobile aerial work platforms to a double edge test.
Furthermore, it has been tested with a steel bar (radius r = 0.5
mm with no burs) for horizontal use and a resulting fall over an
edge. On the basis of this test, the PEANUT is suitable for use
over similar edges. Notwithstanding this test, the following must
be taken into account with a horizontal or oblique use where
there is a risk of falling over an edge:
1. If the risk assessment carried out before the start of work
shows that the fall edge is a particularly "sharp" and/or "not free
from burs" edge, then
• you need to rule out the risk of falling over an edge or
• an edge protection should be mounted
2. The anchor point for the PEANUT may not be below the
user's stand level.
3. The deflection at the edge must be at least 90°
4. To prevent a pendulum fall, the working area and lateral
movements from the median axis on both sides should be
limited in each case to a max. of 1.50m. In other cases, no
individual anchor points should be used but rather a Class C or
D anchor device pursuant to EN 795.
