WORKING PLACE REQUIREMENTS
It is obligatory to verify the free space
required beneath the user's workplace
before each use of the PPE against falls,
in order to avoid the impact with objects
or with a beneath surface during the fall
arrest process.
Free distance below the working surface
depends on the length of the working
rope over the worker. See the table:
Length of the rope over the
10
worker (m) - L
Free distance below the
3.20
working surface (m) – X
During horizontal moving of the worker, the working rope deflection from the vertical line up to 45° is allowed. See the drawing B.
CONNECTING TO THE FULL BODY HARNESS
- The device must be connected only to the ster-
nal attaching rings or to the dorsal one of the full
body harness (1).
- It is strictly forbidden to connect the fall arrester
to the positioning belt rings (2).
- It is forbidden to add any additional element be-
tween the snap hook and the attaching point of
the full body harness (3).
- The arrow situated on the rope grab body must
be directed upward, in the direction of the anchor
point where the working rope is attached (4).
ATTENTION: In order to avoid any accidental
opening of the snap hook, always check that the
gate is protected with the locking gear.
NOTES
Before using a fall arrest system, of which the
guided-type fall arrester device is a component,
you have to check that all devices are correctly
connected. They can work without any trouble
and they are certified with the obligatory stand-
ards:
- EN 353-1, EN 353-2, EN 354, EN 355, EN 360,
EN 361, EN 362: for fall arrest system.
- EN 795: for anchor devices.
- EN 341: for descender devices.
USE
During use, the device should be protected from a contact with oils, acids, solvents, basics, open fire, hot metal drops and
sharp edges. You should avoid using the device in the dust laden and greasy environment.
WITHDRAWN FROM USE
The PPE must be withdrawn from use immediately when:
- any doubt arises about its good condition or its right functioning
- it has been used to arrest a fall
The PPE must be sent to the device manufacturer or to his certified representative to carry out a detailed inspection and to
value its eventual repair or destruction.
PERIODIC REVIEWS
After each 12 months of utilization the PPE must be withdrawn from use for carrying out the periodic review.
During this inspection will be established admissible time for the PPE use till next periodic review. After this period, it is strictly
forbidden to use the PPE without carrying out next periodic review. All the information concerning the periodic review must be
recorded in the Identity Card. The periodic reviews and the updating of the Identity Card can be carried out by the manufac-
turer or by his authorized representative only.
ADMISSIBLE TIME OF USE
The expected average life of the PPE, if it is kept as specified in this informative note and it is subjected to all periodic reviews,
is 5 years from first use date.
THE ESSENTIAL PRINCIPLES OF USE OF PPE AGAINST FALLS FROM A HEIGHT
- PPE shall only be used by a person trained and competent in its safe use.
- PPE must not be used by a person with medical condition that could affect the safety of the equipment user in normal and
emergency use.

- Periodically check connecting and adjusting of the equipment components to avoid accidental loosening or disconnecting
of the components.
- It is forbidden to use combinations of PPE in which the safe function of any items is affected by or interferes with the safe
function of another.

- Before each use of PPE it is obligatory to carry out a pre-use check of the equipment, to ensure that it is in a serviceable
condition and operates correctly.
- During pre-use check it is necessary to inspect all elements of the equipment in respect of any damages, excessive wear,
corrosion, abrasion, cutting or incorrect acting, especially take into consideration: in full body harnesses and belts: buckles,
adjusting elements, attaching points, webbings, seams, loops; in energy absorbers: attaching loops, webbing, seams, con-
nectors; in textile lanyards or lifelines or guidelines: rope, loops, thimbles, connectors, adjusting element, splices; in steel
lanyards or lifelines or guidelines: cable, wires, clips, ferrules, loops, thimbles, connectors, adjusting elements; in retract-
able fall arresters: cable or webbing, retractor and brake proper acting, casing, energy absorber, connector; in guided type
fall arresters: body of the fall arrester, sliding function, locking gear acting, rivets and screws, connector, energy absorber;
in connectors: main body, rivets, gate, locking gear acting.
- It is essential for the safety of the user that if the product is re-sold outside the original country of destination the reseller
shall provide instructions for use, for maintenance, for periodic examination and for repair in language of the country in
which the product is to be used.
- A full body harness conformed to EN 361 is the only acceptable body holding device that can be used in a fall arrest sys-
tem.
- There are many hazards that may affect the performance of the equipment and corresponding safety precautions that have
to be observed during equipment utilization, especially:- trailing or looping of lanyards or lifelines over sharp edges; any
defects like cutting, abrasion, corrosion; climatic exposure; pendulum falls; extremes of temperature; chemical reagents;
electrical conductivity.
- PPE can be cleaned without causing adverse effect on the materials in the manufacture of the equipment. For textile prod-
ucts use mild detergents for delicate fabrics, wash by hand or in a machine and rinse in water. Plastic parts can be cleaned
only with water. When the equipment becomes wet, either from being in use or when due cleaning, it shall be allowed to dry
naturally, and shall be kept away from direct heat. In metallic products some mechanic parts (spring, pin, hinge, etc.) can
be regularly slightly lubricated to ensure better operation. Other maintenance and cleaning procedures should be adhered
to detailed instructions stated in the manual of the equipment.
- PPE must be transported in its original package.
- PPE must be stored in their original packaging, in a well-ventilated place, protected from direct light, ultraviolet degrada-
tion, damp environment, sharp edges, extreme temperatures and corrosive substances.
- The PPE must be disposed of in compliance with the local regulations in force on this subject (dump, incinerator).
- In the case of manufacturing defects this PPE will be replaced.
It is the responsibility of the user organisation to provide the IDENTITY CARD and to fill in the details required. The identity
card should be filled in before the first use of the equipment. Any information about the protective equipment (device name,
serial number, date of purchase, date of first use, user's name, information about reviews and repairs) shall be noted in the
IDENTITY CARD. Do not use the PPE without the identity card duly filled in.
