rollclamp or rollbeam identifiable along the entire
operator travel distance "C" planned (fig. 4).

9. Using the system

Any operator which will be using a Tractel
device must be physically able to perform work
at heights and must have received the necessary
training prior to use as required by this manual, with
demonstration under risk-free conditions using the
associated PPE equipment.
The connection and disconnection method of the
securing anchor point should be explained carefully,
and the operator's understanding of this method
should be verified. The description of the installation
of the PPE connector is given in Fig. 7, showing the
connector in open position 1 for its positioning, and
in position 2 closed on the securing anchor point. For
operator safety, the knurled locking nut should be fully
screwed in once connected. Use of a wire connector
compatible with the securing anchor point ring is
essential. The Tractel anchor devices must only be
®
used for fall protection for one operator only, and must
never be used as a suspension point. This system must
only be used with CE certified PPE compliant with all
applicable regulations and standards. A complete fall-
arrest harness is the only operator harnessing system
acceptable for use with an anchor device.
The anchor device must never be used beyond its limits
as indicated in this manual.
Before any use, the operator must ensure that:
General check
1. The anchor device is visibly in good condition.
2. The temperature is between -35°C and +60°C.
3. The anchor device has been covered by a periodic
inspection over the past 12 months.
4. The maximum operating load of the anchor device is
150 kg. It is important to ensure, before use, that all
components of the fall arrest system are compatible
with this load, by consulting their respective
supervisor manuals. If this is not the case, the
maximum load will be that of the component of the
fall arrest system that has the lowest maximum
load.
rollclamp aditional check:
1. The anchor device slides freely along the entire
operator travel distance "C" planned (fig. 4).
2. The travel limit stops (fig. 4, item 11) are functional.
3. The mobile jaw is correctly locked on the guide rod.
4. The securing strap does not show any signs of
breaks, tears or abnormal wear.
5. There is no risk of accidental unfastening of the
anchor device identifiable along the entire operator
travel distance "C" planned (fig. 4).
rollbeam additional check:
1. The anchor device slides freely along the entire
anchor operator travel distance "C" planned (fig. 4).
®
2. The travel limit stops (fig. 4, item 11) are functional.
3. There is no risk of accidental unfastening of the
anchor device identifiable along the entire operator
travel distance "C" planned (fig. 4).
corso additional check:
The corso anchor device is correctly hang and lock
on the beam.
In the event of an anomaly or damage observed on the
anchor device, it should immediately be removed from
the area and repaired by a qualified technician.
The supervisor in charge of use of the anchor device
must provide for an operator rescue procedure
should an operator fall and for all other emergency
circumstances to allow evacuation of the operator
under conditions compatible with the operator's health
and safety. All operators should be equipped with a
mobile phone with an emergency number to be called
if necessary.
The operator must not, at any time, be
disconnected from the anchor device when
working in an area where there is a risk of falling.
In particular, when the operator passes from one
anchor device to another, a pair of lanyards (or
double lanyard) should be attached at all times to
the operator's fall-arrest harness.
When the anchor device has been subjected to an
operator fall, the entire anchor system and the PPE
concerned by the fall must be inspected before they
are returned to service by a technician qualified for this
purpose.
Prior to any dismantling procedure, the installer must
check the following:
• All the conditions ensuring safety during the
dismantling
applicable regulations must be present.
