This manual is intended to meet the Manufacturer's Instructions as required by ANSI
Z359 and should be used as part of an employee training program as required by OSHA.
This manual assumes the user has been trained in the use of this equipment.
This product is part of a personal fall arrest, restraint, work positioning, suspension, or
rescue system. A Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS) is typically composed of an
anchorage and a Full Body Harness (FBH), with a connecting device, i.e., a Shock
Absorbing Lanyard (SAL), or a Self‐Retracting Device (SRD), attached to the dorsal D‐
Ring of the FBH. These instructions must be provided to the user of this equipment.
The user must read and understand the manufacturer's instructions for each
component or part of the complete system. Manufacturer's instructions must be
followed for proper use, care, and maintenance of this product. These instructions
must be retained and be kept available for the user's reference at all times.
Alterations or misuse of this product, or failure to follow instructions, may result in
serious injury or death.
A Fall Protection Plan must be on file and available for review by all users. It is the
responsibility of the user and the purchaser of this equipment to assure that users of
this equipment are properly trained in its use, maintenance, and storage.
Training must be repeated at regular intervals. Training must not subject the trainee
to fall hazards.
When this equipment is in use the employer must have a rescue plan and the means
at hand to implement it and communicate that plan to users, authorized persons, and
rescuers.
Consult a doctor if there is reason to doubt your fitness to safely absorb the shock of a
fall event. Age and fitness seriously affect a worker's ability to withstand falls. Pregnant
women or minors must not use this equipment.
