distance of the user will be greater than if the user had
fallen vertically directly below the anchorage point. The
user must therefore account for an increase in the total
free fall distance and the area needed to safely arrest
the fall.
The SRL (if applicable) will activate (lock‑up) regardless
of it's orientation and location relative to the user's
position, however, a commonly followed guideline is
work as directly between the anchorage point and roof
edge as possible. Do not captivate the lifeline of an
SRL, it may affect the performance of its braking. If
a swing fall hazard exists in your application, contact
DBI‑SALA before proceeding.
E. SHARP EDGES: Avoid working where the connecting
subsystem (i.e. SRL, full body harness, lanyard, lifeline,
etc.) or other system components will be in contact
with, or abrade against unprotected sharp edges. See
Figure 6. If working with this equipment near sharp
edges is unavoidable, protection against cutting must
be provided by using a heavy pad or other means
over the exposed sharp edge. If you are not using the
Leading Edge SRL (PN 3504500), it is recommended
that an energy absorber (PN 1220362) be installed in-
line between the harness and the self retracting lifeline
to further protect the worker. Compatibility and total
fall distance issues must be considered if this is done.
Contact DBI-SALA before using in-line energy absorbing
components or lanyards with self retracting lifelines.
F. RESCUE: Should a fall occur, the user (employer)
must have a rescue plan and the means at hand to
implement it.
G. AFTER A FALL: Any equipment which has been
subjected to the forces of arresting a fall must be
removed from service immediately and destroyed or
contact a factory authorized service center for repair.
warnIng: Read and follow the manufacturer's instructions
for associated equipment (i.e. SRL, full body harness, lanyard,
lifeline, etc.) used in your personal fall arrest system.

Step 1.
Determine the location of the anchorage. The anchorage must be
at least 8 ft. (2.5 m) away from the edge of the structure (or any
openings such as skylights) and as close as possible to the work
area. See Figure 4.
Step 2.
Sweep the installation area free of loose materials, then layout
four rubberized plates on a flat surface as shown in Figure 7.
