USE
4.1
BEFORE EACH USE: Verify that your work area and Fall Protection system meet all criteria defined in these instructions.
Verify that a formal Rescue Plan is in place. Inspect the product per the 'User' inspection points defined in the "Inspection
and Maintenance Log". If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, or if there is any doubt about its condition
for safe use, remove the product from service immediately. Clearly tag the product "DO NOT USE". See Section 5 for more
information.
4.2
ANCHORAGE: In addition to product capacity, any fall protection system must take into account the strengths of any
supporting structures or components.
A.
Anchorage Structure: The anchorage structure securing this product must be able to withstand the required loads,
as permitted by this product's fall protection system.
i.
ANSI/OSHA:
;
Any anchorages selected for use must be approved by a Qualified Person.
System Application
Fall Arrest
Restraint
Work Positioning
Rescue
When more than one system is secured to an anchorage, the above strength values must be multiplied by the
number of systems secured. See ANSI/ASSP Z359.2 for more information.
ii.
CE:
;
When using this product as part of a Fall Arrest system, the user must include a means of limiting their
Maximum Arrest Force to 6 kN (1,350 lbf) as part of their Fall Arrest system. This is typically controlled by the
connecting subsystem.
Maximum Arresting Force
B.
Anchorage Connection Points: Anchorage connection points used with the product must be able to withstand any
loads applied by the product.
Minimum Breaking Strength
4.3
AFTER A FALL: If this equipment is subjected to fall arrest or impact force, remove it from service immediately. Clearly
tag it "DO NOT USE". See Section 5 for more information.
4.4
SYSTEM CONNECTIONS: Anchorage connectors are part of a complete Fall Protection system. After the anchorage
connector has been secured, the user may connect to one of its anchorage connection points using their connecting
subsystem. The user should attach their Connector (A) directly to the Anchorage Connection Point (B). See Figure 7 for
reference. For more information, see the manufacturer instructions for your connecting subsystem.
The maximum arresting force for your connecting subsystem must not exceed the limit for its applicable standard.
