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.)
CAUTION: Always wear gloves when
inspecting cable lifelines; broken
strands can cause injury!
Snap Hook/Carabiner - 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.
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 main-
tain 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 brake engages. Once tension
is released, the brakes will disengage
and the unit will return to the retractable
mode.
Swivels - The connector and anchorage
swivels should operate smoothly.

WARNING
When inspection and operational
testing reveals defects in or dam-
age to equipment, inadequate main-
tenance of equipment, or evidence
of equipment having been exposed
to fall arrest forces or loading, the
equipment shall be immediately re-
moved 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 inadver-
tent further use.
Every Honeywell Miller MightyLite or
MightEvac will be equipped with the
following load impact indicator:
Snap Hook Load Indicator (See Fig. R)
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 (Refer to
Inspect visual indicator).
7.2 Maintenance
Basic care of all fall protection equipment
will prolong its service life and will
contribute toward the performance of its
vital safety function.
Servicing
Servicing
of
Retracting Lifelines must only be carried
out by Honeywell Safety Products or
persons or entities authorized in writing
by Honeywell. A record log of all servicing
and inspection dates for this device must
be maintained. Only original Honeywell
replacement parts are approved for use
in this device. Contact your Honeywell
distributor or call Honeywell Technical
Service at 800-873-5242 for a return
authorization number.
Honeywell Miller Self-Retracting Lifelines
(included in this manual) require no annual
factory recertification for Honeywell Miller.
ANSI Z359.14-2021 and CSA Z259.2.2
standards are voluntary; and ultimately, the
end-user/company must elect to follow the
inspection and recertification requirements
if it is to be compliant with the standard.
