7. The tracpode is a fall-arresting anchor point which
can arrest the fall of two persons, each with a
maximum mass of 150 kg.
GB
8. If the mass of the operator plus the mass of his/her
equipment and tools is between 100 kg and 150 kg,
you must ensure that this total mass (operator +
equipment + tools) does not exceed the working
load limit of each of the components of the fall-
arrest system.
9. This equipment is suitable for use on an open-air
site and within a temperature range of -40°C to
+60°C. Avoid any contact with sharp edges, rough
surfaces and chemical substances.
10. If you are responsible for assigning the equipment
to an employee or similar person, ensure that you
comply with the applicable health and safety at work
regulations.
11. The operator must be physically and mentally
fit when using this equipment. In case of doubt,
check with his/her doctor or with the occupational
physician. Pregnant women are prohibited from
using the equipment.
12. The equipment must not be used beyond its limits
or in any situation other than that for which it has
been designed: see "4. Functions and description".
13. It is advisable to personally allocate a tracpode to each
operator, especially if the operator is an employee.
14. Before using a tracpode the user must ensure that
each of its components is in good working order:
safety system, locking system. When setting up, it
is essential to ensure that the safety functions are
not degraded in any way.
15. When using a fall-arrest system, it is essential to
check, prior to each use, the clearance under the
operator at the place of work, so that if the operator
falls there is no risk of hitting the ground or any
obstacle in his or her path (before the fall-arrest
system halts their fall).
16. A fall-arrest harness is the only body-gripping device
that is permitted for use in a fall-arrest system.
17. It is essential for the safety of the operator that the
device or anchor point is correctly positioned and
that work is carried out so as to minimise the risk of
falls and the height at which the work is performed.
18. To ensure the safety of the operator, if the equipment
is sold outside the primary country of intended
sale, the dealer shall supply: an instruction manual
and instructions regarding maintenance, periodic
inspections and repair work, all of which shall be
written in the language of the country in which the
equipment shall be used.
19. It is essential for the safety of the operator that the user
has checked that the fall-arrest system guarantees a
fall-arrest tensile force of less than 6 kN.
