6. Installation
Figure 3, page 5.
Assemble all adjustment loops of the harness when the
operator is wearing it.
Regularly check the adjustment and fixing elements
when using the equipment.
Adjust the lengths of the various straps: they should not
be over or undertightened to obtain maximum comfort
when using the system and for optimum fall-arrest
protection. The harness will ensure efficient protection
under these conditions.
• Whenever possible, the structural anchor point will be
located at a height between 1.5 and 2 metres above
the operator's feet. The structural anchor point must
withhold a minimal resistance of 12 kN.
• The connection to the anchoring point or to the
structure must be done using an EN 362 connector.
