Rigid Rail Safety System components.
TRAInInG: It is the responsibility of users of this equipment to understand these instructions and be trained
in correct installation, use, and maintenance of this equipment. Users must be aware of the consequences of
improper installation or use of this equipment. This instruction manual is not a substitute for a training program.
Training must be provided on a periodic basis to ensure user proficienc�.
DeSCRIPTIon: The Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System (Figure 1) provides fall protection for persons climbing
fixed ladders or similar climbing structures. The Railok �� Rigid Rail Safet� S�stem is comprised of a Rigid Rail
system and a Shuttle. The Railok 90 Shuttle serves as a self-locking guided fall arrestor for a climber equipped
with a Full Body Harness. The Shuttle travels along the Railok 90 Rigid Rail as the climber ascends or descends the
ladder or similar structure. In the event of a fall the Shuttle locks onto the Rigid Rail to arrest the fall. The Shuttle
is configured with an Energ� Absorber to dissipate fall energ� and limit fall forces transferred to the bod�.
PuRPoSe: The Railok 90 Shuttle and Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System are components in a Personal Fall Arrest
System (PFAS) for climbing ladders or similar structures where fall hazards exist. The PFAS would typically include a Full
Body Harness, Anchorage Connector (e.g., Carabiner), Railok 90 Shuttle, and Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System.
SYSTem RequIRemenTS: Plan your fall protection system and how it will be used prior to installation. Consider
all factors that will affect your safety before, during, and after a fall. Include the following considerations:
SYSTem CAPACITY:
Multiple users are required to climb sequentially so only a single user is on a 10 ft. (3 m) section of rail at any
time. System capacities are based on a minimum and maximum user's weight, including tools and clothing, of
a range of 130 lbs. (45 kg.) to 310 lbs (141 kg).
STRuCTuRe:
The structure to which the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System is installed must be capable
of withstanding the loads applied by the system in the event of a fall. The structure must be capable of
withstanding a force of 3,372 lbs (15 kN). If there will more than one user on the system; the structure must
be able to withstand a force of 4,721 lbs (21 kN) for two people, 6,070 lbs (27 kN) for three people, and
7,419 lbs (33 kN) for a maximum of four people.
FALL CLeARAnCe:
NOTE: For the bottom 7 feet (2 m) of the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System, the user may not be protected
against hitting the ground. Extra care should be taken when ascending or Descending the bottom section.
LoCkInG SPeeD:
Working in cramped spaces ma� not allow sufficient speed to lock the Shuttle when a fall occurs. A clear path
is required to ensure positive locking of the system.
envIRonmenTAL HAZARDS:
additional precautions to reduce the possibility of injury to the user or damage to the equipment. Hazards may
include, but are not limited to: high heat caused by welding or metal cutting; caustic chemicals; seawater;
high voltage power lines; explosive or toxic gases; moving machinery; sharp edges.
ComPonenT ComPATIBILITY:
approved components and subsystems. The use of non-approved components and subsystems may jeopardize
compatibility of equipment, and could affect the safety and reliability of the complete system.
IMpORTANT: The Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System should not be used in combination with another fall
protection system or sub system, except if authorized by Capital Safety.

ComPATIBILITY oF ConneCToRS:

supplied with the s�stem or replacements specified b� Capital Safet�. Use caution to assure compatibilit� of hooks and the
connection point. Non-compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage (roll-out). Connectors must be compatible in
size, shape, and strength. Self closing/self locking connectors are highly recommended by Capital Safety.
The Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System is designed to be used by 1-4 users at a time.
Fall clearance below the feet of the user to the ground or other surface must be at least 7 feet (2 m).
Avoid using the Railok 90 Shuttle in situations where the climbing path is obstructed.
Use of this equipment in areas with environmental hazards may require
