PFLs shall not be altered or added to. No unauthorized repairs, modifications, alterations and/or additions are
l
permitted.
RESCUE AND EVACUATION: the user must have a rescue plan and the means at hand to implement it. The plan
l
must take into account the equipment and specific training necessary to affect prompt rescue under all foreseeable
conditions. If the rescue must be performed in a confined space, the provisions of OSHA regulation 1910.146 and
ANSI Z117.1 must be taken into account. It is recommended to provide means for user evacuation without
assistance of others. This will usually reduce the time to get to a safe place and reduce or prevent the risk to
rescuers.
DO NOT rely on feel or sound to verify proper connector engagement. Ensure the connector is closed before use.
l
Additional lanyard connectors shall not be added, as this would serve to lengthen the lifeline and increase free fall.
l
Unsuitable for use on unstable surfaces, fine grain materials or particulate surfaces such as sand or coal, as
l
insufficient speed may prevent lock-on in the event of a fall (possible engulfment hazard).
DO NOT use where line may be exposed to abrasive edges. For leading edge guidance, see Section
l
Edge Installation and
PFLs shall not come into contact with hot surfaces (such as hot pipes), become entangled with moving machinery, or
l
come into contact with electrical hazards (such as high voltage power lines).
PFLs shall be protected from fire, acids, caustic solutions, or temperatures outside the range -40°F to 130°F (-40°C
l
to 54°C).
DO NOT leave the PFL installed in environments which could cause damage or deterioration to the product. Refer to
l
the care details in Section
Examinations.
Instructions shall be retained and provided to all users of PFLs in the language of the destination country, even when
l
resold.
DO NOT exceed the maximum fall arrest forces as specified by governing standards or subsystem components.
l
Dual-connections shall only be made for the purposes of 100% tie-off transitions, if a dual connection is made for any
l
other purpose, anchorages of different elevations must be utilized.
Use of combinations of components or subsystems, or both, may affect or interfere with the safe function of the
l
components or subsystems. Use only compatible components or subsystems, never add additional length to the
system.
Leading Edge-Specific Product Use (V-SHOCK EDGE Products)
• Use in edge situations should only be as a last resort.
• Avoid working where the lifeline will continuously or repeatedly abrade against sharp, jagged, or abrasive edges.
• The V-SHOCK EDGE PFL anchorage point shall be at the user's foot level or above.
• Do not work on the far side of an opening opposite the anchorage point or around corners.
Only use V-SHOCK EDGE PFLs for leading edge applications. Do NOT use V-SHOCK PFLs for leading edge
l
applications.
Leading edge configurations shall only be used after all other hierarchy of controls, including restraint systems and
l
overhead anchorages, have been exhausted.
Leading edge configurations shall only be used in accordance with local regulations.
l
Leading edge configurations shall be used in accordance with the instructions, warnings and limitations in these User
l
Instructions.
In leading edge applications with 0 ft (0 m) setback, ensure that setup does not allow snaphook to contact leading
l
edge in the event of a fall.
