. AN801UN must be used as an anchor point, in the case of an installation with safety support.
. For security reasons and before each use, make sure that in case of a fall, the space beneath the feet of the user is sufficient to
avoid a collision with the ground and that no obstacle is present on the path of the fall.
. The device may only be used by one person at a time. The weight of the user, including his clothing and equipment must not
exceed the maximum weight stated on the anchor used with safety support. This equipment should be operated only by trained,
competent and in good health people, or under the supervision of a trained and competent person.
. Warning! Some medical conditions may affect the safety of the user, in case of doubt contact you doctor.
. Before and during use, we recommend that you take every precaution necessary for an eventual safe rescue.
. Before each use, check that the anchor is securely fixed on its support. In case of doubt on the status of the device (traces of
oxidation) or after a fall (deformation), it should not be reused and / or be returned to the manufacturer or a competent person
mandated by them.
. It is forbidden to remove, add or replace any component of the anchor without the agreement of the manufacturer.
Temperature: AN801UNI should be used in work environments with minimum temperatures of -40°C / maximum of +50°C.
Chemicals: Put the equipment out of service in the case of contact with chemicals, solvents or fuels that could affect the
operation.
VERIFICATION :
Metal products and mechanical products (self-retracting fall arrest device, sliding, work on ropes, anchors etc. ...): Maximum
duration of 20 years from the date of manufacture (including storage and use).
The shelf life is given as an indication. The following factors can cause it to vary greatly:
- Non-compliance with the manufacturer's instructions for transport, storage and use
- "Aggressive" work environment: marine atmosphere, chemicals, extreme temperatures, sharp edges...
- Particularly intensive use
- Choc ou contrainte importants
- Shock or significant constraint
- Disregard for the product item's history
Warning: these factors can cause damage invisible to the naked eye.
Warning: certain extreme conditions can shorten the shelf life by a few days.
If in doubt, always remove the product for it to undergo either:
- a review
- destruction
The shelf life is not a substitute for periodic verification (minimum annually) which will assess the condition of the product.

this manual.
Do not use beyond the area of use defined in the instructions for use.
To ensure its working condition and therefore the safety of the user, the product should be checked systematically:
1/ visually inspect the following points:
-State of the strap or rope: no fraying, no boot cut, no visible damage at seams, no burning and no unusual narrowing
- State of the cable: no start of rupture of one or more threads, no folding, no burning, no corrosion or oxidation, no deformation
of the cable stranding.
- Condition of the metal parts: no wear, no deformation, no corrosion or oxidation
- General condition: look for any possible damage due to ultraviolet radiation and other climatic conditions
- That the general disposition of the work situation reduces the fall risk, the drop height and the pendulum movement in the
case of a fall.
- Correct operation and locking of connectors (EN362)
Specific conditions such as humidity, snow, ice, mud, dirt, paint, oil, glue, corrosion, wear of the strap or rope, etc.. can
significantly reduce the operation of the fall arrest device.
2/ in the following cases:
- Before and during use
- If in doubt
- In the case of contact with chemicals, solvents or fuels that could affect operation
- If it has been subjected to stress during a previous fall
- At least every twelve months by the manufacturer or a competent organization, mandated by them.
PERIODIC REVIEW of PPE:
An examination should be performed at least every twelve months by the manufacturer or a competent organization, mandated
by them. This very important check is related to the maintenance and efficacy of the PPE and hence the user's safety. A written
