gate is securely closed and locked. Always ensure that you follow the manufacturer's supplied instructions
with each component of a system.
Once connected to the SRL the user is free to move about the working area. The lanyard will extract and
retract without hesitation. If the lanyard is prevented from retracting during normal use, extract the lanyard
fully and allow it to retract under tension. Then check the locking function of the device. If the lanyard
continues not to retract fully, then return the SRL to an authorized person for inspection and recertification.
An increase in fall distance can occur if the lanyard is prevented from retracting. This must be avoided.
Therefore, always ensure that the lanyard can extract and retract without hesitation, and never prevent the
lanyard from retracting (see Figure 6).
During use, sudden or quick movements can cause the SRL to lock up, and should, therefore, be avoided.
Never attach an additional lanyard or similar component to lengthen the lanyard.
Do not allow the lanyard to pass through legs or under arms.
In the event of a fall, the SRL will lock, arrest the fall, and deploy the energy absorber when used properly.
After rescue the SRL should be removed from use and recertified by an authorized person.
