overhead, horizontal beam so as to restrict freefall to a maximum
of six feet. Never use the FallTech Beam Trolley to tie-off at
the foot-level or to the top flange of any beam. Never use on
a vertical beam.
6. Slide the variable-position yoke toward the beam flange until
both the wheels on both yokes are in direct contact with the top
of the beam flange. The raised portion of the wheels should be
in contact with the outer edge of the beam flange. Using a
gloved hand, tighten the inner retainer nut until hand-tight and
then tighten the outer retainer nut until it is hand-tight – then use
an adjustable wrench to tighten the outer retainer nut an
additional ¼ turn.
7. Check to make sure that all four wheels are in direct contact with
the beam flange. There should be no play from side to side, as
the raised outer edge of the wheels should keep the Beam
Trolley centered on the beam. The Beam Trolley should glide
smoothly along the beam in either direction.
8. Be sure that the beam is level and horizontal and that there is no
slope or grade. Ensure that the flange is free of jagged edges,
paint build up, rivets, fasteners, welding slag or any other
obstruction in the path of the Beam Trolley. Ensure that there is
a stop or a column at either end of the Beam Trolley's path.
Failure to do so could result in an accidental disengagement,
leading to serious injury or death.
9. Check your installation to ensure that the Beam Trolley cannot
come off of the beam at any point along the intended path of
movement or at beam joints or ends.
10. Joints between beam sections must be flush and must have a
maximum gap of ½".
11. Ensure your Full Body Harness is properly donned and adjusted
and that your connecting device is securely attached to your
back D-ring. Tie-off to the Beam Trolley with your connecting
device.
12. Proceed cautiously with your work. Do not run, jump or over-
reach. While moving, the Ratcheting/Sliding Beam Anchor
should glide on the beam, allowing you greater mobility. If it
does not glide smoothly, then check to ensure the D-ring on the
Beam Anchor is centered on the beam. Also check for jagged
edges, fasteners, paint build-up welding spatter or other
obstructions. Any type of obstruction or any sudden
movement may cause the Beam Anchor to seize-up on the
beam, causing you to lose your footing. Move with care and
deliberation at all times while working at heights.
13. Do not allow your connecting device to pass under your arm or
between your legs – severe injury or death may result. Also
