6.0 Maintenance, Service, and Storage
6.1 Maintenance:
Ensure the SRL is kept free of excess paint, grease, dirt or other contaminants as this may cause
the lifeline or retracting mechanism to malfunction. Ensure no debris enters the housing. Clean the
exterior of the unit as required with a detergent/water solution. Do not allow water or other corrosion
causing elements to enter the housing. After cleaning, pull the lifeline all the way out, allow the unit to
air dry, then retract the lifeline into the unit. Clean labels as required.
DO NOT use heat to dry.
DO NOT attempt to disassemble the SRL.
6.2 Service:
If service is required for any reason, such as inspection failure, impact loading, any type of malfunction,
tag the unit as "UNUSABLE" and remove from service. This product includes a feature that enables the
integral SRDs to be replaced individually if the SRD lifeline is worn or damaged during normal use. Any
damage to the shock pack or deployed visual indicator cannot and shall not be serviced or repaired.
Once removed from service, the SRD unit can be removed and replaced using the 5049 Spanner Tool.
SRD unit replacement shall only be performed by a Competent Person or an Authorized FallTech
Repair Center. Read and follow the Spanner Tool User Instruction Manual (448-00009).Failure to do
so can cause the SRL to function improperly, which can result in serious injury or death. SRL must be
inspected by a Competent Person before returning to service. To request a 5049 Spanner Tool,
contact FallTech.
6.3 Storage:
Store the FT-X EdgeCore in a cool, dry, clean environment out of direct sunlight. Position the SRL so
excess water can drain out. Avoid exposure to chemical or caustic vapors. Thoroughly inspect the SRL
after any period of extended storage.
7.0 Inspection
7.1 Pre-Use User Inspection:
Perform an inspection before each use in accordance with the recommendations in Table 1 below.
Inspection
The lifeline should extract and retract completely and without faltering and should remain
taut under tension without sagging.
Extract the lifeline several inches and apply a firm pull to confirm the SRL locks. The locking
should be certain and without skidding. Repeat this lockup at additional places along the
lifeline length to confirm the SRL is operating correctly.
Inspect entire length of the lifeline for abrasion, broken or unraveled yarns, burns, cuts or
knots. Inspect for damage from dirt, paint, grease, or oil. Inspect for discoloration or other
damage caused by chemical exposure or excessive heat. Inspect for cracking or other dam-
age from extreme exposure to ultraviolet light. If any of these conditions exist, remove the
SRL-P from service immediately.
Examine the SRL-FBH Connector for cracks, breaks, or warping. Ensure the locking bar locks
in the locked position.
Check the Energy Absorber for rips, tears, or other damage.
Check the Connector Assembly for cracks, deformations, or other damage.
Examine the overall SRL unit for any indications of deterioration or damage.
All labels must be intact and legible.
If an inspection reveals defects or damage to the equipment, remove the equipment from service.
