requirements
established by current safety standards.
The inspection criteria for the equipment
shall be set by the user's organization, such
that it equals or exceeds the criteria required
by the manufacturer and the standards with
which the organization elects to comply.
Equipment shall be thoroughly inspected
and operationally tested by the user before
each use, and additionally, by a competent
person, other than the user, at regular
intervals of no more than one year for:
*ANSI Z359.14 and CSA Z259.2.2-17 provide
additional inspection requirements based on type
of use and conditions of use. Refer to Table 2:
ANSI Z359.14 and CSA Z259.2.2-17 Appendix A:
Inspection Requirements for compliance with this
standard. (*See note in 6.2 Maintenance.)

Absence or illegibility of markings/labels.

Absence of any elements affecting the
equipment form, fit or function.

Evidence of defects in or damage to the

Notes:
1) Failure of a worker to perform "before each use" inspection or failure of an inspection by a worker shall initiate the requirement for inspection by a competent person.
2) Failure of a competent person to perform inspections as specified in this Table, or failure of an inspection by the competent person shall initiate product revalidation
or disposal.
3) Determination of the type of use category shall be determined by a competent person.
4) A SRL that is considered non-repairable, or not designed for disassembly such that internal inspection is not possible without rendering it unserviceable, is not subject
to revalidation inspection. These SRL's shall have service life and other inspection requirements as provided by the manufacturer's instructions.

Conditions of Use
Good storage conditions,
indoor or infrequent outdoor
use, room temperature, clean
environments
Fair storage conditions,
indoor and extended outdoor
use, all temperatures, clean or
dusty environments
Harsh storage conditions,
prolonged or continuous
outdoor use, all temperatures,
dirty environment
excessive aging, excessive wear, and loose,
broken or pulled stitches.
CAUTION:
inspecting cable lifelines; broken strands
can cause injury!

criteria
Operational damage to the lifeline.
Retraction - With the device in a mounted
position, test the lifeline retraction and ten-
sion by pulling out several feet of the lifeline
and allow to retract back into the unit. Always
maintain a light tension on the lifeline as it
retracts. The lifeline should pull out freely
and retract all the way back into the unit. If
the lifeline does not pull out smoothly or
sticks when retracting, pull all the lifeline out
of the housing and allow it to retract slowly
under tension. Do not use the unit if the life-
line does not retract properly.
CAUTION: Do not let go of the lifeline and let
it retract on its own; always maintain tension
while it retracts!
Lockup Mechanism - The braking mecha-
nism can be tested by grasping the lifeline
ABOVE the load indicator and applying a
sharp steady pull downward which will en-
gage the brakes. There should be no slippage
of the lifeline while the brakes are engaged.
Once tension is released, the brakes will dis-
engage and the unit will return to the retract-
able mode.
