5.0 Installation/Use
WARNING: All Miller self-retracting lifelines must be inspected and tested
before each use (see 7.0 Inspection and Maintenance).
5.1 Typical Overhead Installation
Miller self-retracting lifelines are typically mounted
to an overhead anchorage by the anchorage
attachment using a locking carabiner or other
Honeywell-approved mounting device (see Fig. 3 &
4). The anchorage must be capable of supporting
a 5,000 pound (22.2kN) tensile load, or it must be
designed, installed, and used under the supervision
system which maintains a safety factor of two.
Review all warnings and instructions when selecting
a mounting location. The device should be installed
and used in such a manner as to minimize the
potential for a swing fall.
5.2 Tie-Back Installation
Miller Turbo T-BAK Tie-Back Personal Fall Limiters
are self-retracting lifelines that are uniquely
engineered to allow the user to tie-off safely to
an anchorage. Miller Turbo T-BAK Personal Fall
Limiters are designed with heavy-duty, abrasion-
resistant webbing and the 5K snap hook, which is
capable of withstanding 5,000 lbs. of force on the
snap hook gate from any angle, to allow connection
back to the web lifeline in a choking fashion.
DO NOT attempt this type of connection with
standard TurboLite Personal Fall Limiters or other
designed for such a connection. Refer to the I296
Turbo T-BAK Instruction Supplement for complete
information regarding this installation application.
