ANSI Z359.14-2021 and CSA Z259.2.2 - provide
additional inspection requirements based on
type of use and conditions of use. Refer to
ANSI Z359.14-2021: "6.1 Inspection" and CSA
Z259.2.2: Table 2 "Inspection and revalidation".
(*See note in section 5.2 Maintenance.)
Retraction - With the device in a mounted
position, test the lifeline retraction and
tension 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 lifeline 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
mechanism can be tested by grasping
the lifeline ABOVE the load indicator and
applying a sharp steady pull downward
which will engage the brakes. There
should be no slippage of the lifeline while
the brakes are engaged. Once tension is
released, the brakes will disengage and the
unit will return to the retractable model.
Snap Hook/Carabiner/Rebar Hook - The
connector gate (keeper) should seat into
the nose without binding and should not
be distorted or obstructed. The gate spring
should exert sufficient force to firmly close
the gate. The gate locking mechanism must
prevent the gate from opening when closed.
Swivels - The connector and anchorage
swivels should operate smoothly.

WARNING
When inspection and operational
testing reveals defects in or damage to
equipment, inadequate maintenance
of
equipment,
equipment having been exposed
to fall arrest forces or loading, the
equipment shall be immediately
removed from service.
Units removed from service, shall be
marked and tagged "UNUSABLE" and
returned for service in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
Non-repairable devices must be
disposed of in a manner to prevent
inadvertent further use.
Every Honeywell Miller Self-Retracting
Lifeline will be equipped with one of the
following load impact indicators:
Webbing Load Indicator (See Fig. K)
A fold sewn into the webbing lifeline above
the snap hook serves as the impact indica-
tor. A warning flag is included and will be
exposed should the lifeline be subjected to
fall arresting forces.
Snap Hook Load Indicator (See Fig. L)
The snap hook load impact indicator is
built into the swivel part of the snap hook.
The swivel eye will elongate and expose a
red area at the location illustrated when
subjected to fall arrest forces.
Load Indicator from Shock Absorber
Pack (See Fig. M)
Honeywell Miller TurboLite Flash Personal
Fall Limiters are equipped with a load
indicator built into the shock absorber
pack. When subjected to fall arrest forces
the internal white energy absorber will
become exposed or deploy as shown.
5.2 Maintenance
Basic care of all fall protection equipment
will prolong its service life and will
contribute toward the performance of its
vital safety function.
