9.0 Installation and Use

Before Each Use
Users of personal fall arrest systems must have a rescue plan in place, if the user
cannot rescue themselves, as well as the means to carry out the rescue.
The user must read and understand these User Instructions, as well as the User
Instructions for every component/subsystem of the personal fall arrest system.
The entire Safewaze Cable Horizontal Lifeline system, and its subsystems, must be
inspected prior to each use for wear, damage, and other deterioration. All snaphooks
and carabiners must be able to self-close and lock. Check the operation of self
retracting lanyards by pulling smoothly on the lifeline, then pull sharply on the lifeline
to engage the locking mechanism. All webbing and cable must be inspected for tears,
cuts, fraying, abrasion, unsplicing, discoloration, or other signs of wear and damage.
Sewn terminations should be secure, complete, and not visibly damaged. All cable
splices should be secure. System must be properly tensioned. No load indicators
shall be deployed. Damaged and other deteriorated and defective components must
be immediately removed from service, in accordance with the requirements of OSHA
29 CFR 1910.66 and 1926.502.
FIGURE 7 - STANDARD ENGERGY ABSORBER INSTALLATION EXAMPLE
Cross Arm Strap System Installation with Integral Energy Absorber
Step 1. Install Anchorage Connector
Wrap the Cross Arm Strap around the anchorage and pass the small D-ring end
through the large D-ring end. Wrap as many times as necessary to achieve desired
length, ensuring strap is wrapped at least twice around the end anchorage. A
minimum of two wraps around the end anchorage helps prevent sliding of the anchor
straps during use. Only connect to the small D-ring of the Cross Arm Strap.
Other approved anchorage connectors, which meet the 5,000 lbs strength requirement,
may be used in place of the supplied FS810-6 Cross Arm Straps. See anchorage
connector user instructions for proper installation.
Step 2. Connect Integral Energy Absorber to End Anchorage
Connect the Integral Energy Absorber to the small D-ring of the Cross Arm Strap using
one of the supplied carabiners. Connect the tensioner to the opposite anchorage point
(cross arm strap) via the other supplied carabiner.
