• In a manner that would result in a load on the gate (with the exception of tie-back
hooks).
• In a false engagement, where features that protrude from the snap hook or
carabiner catch on the anchor, and without visual confirmation seems to be fully
engaged to the anchor point.
• To each other.
• By wrapping the web lifeline around an anchor and securing to lifeline, except as
allowed for tie-back models.
• To any object which is shaped or sized in a way that the snap hook or carabiner
will not close and lock, or that roll-out could occur.
• In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under load.
Large throat snap hooks must not be connected to standard size D-rings or similar
objects which will result in a load on the gate if the hook or D-ring twists or rotates,
unless the snap hook complies with ANSI Z359.1-2020 or ANSI Z359.12-2019 and is
equipped with a 3,600 lb. (16 kN) gate.

11.0 INSTALLATION/OPERATION OF LODESTAR
Step 1: Inspect the SRL prior to use.
Step 2: Mount the carabiner of the SRL to an approved anchor point and connect its
snap hook to the dorsal D-ring of a full body harness. (Figure 5)
Step 3: When fully attached, the user is then free to move about within the
recommended working area. When working with an SRL, always allow the lifeline to
retract back into the device in a controlled manner. Do not release the unit to "free-
wheel" back into itself.
When used properly, the lifeline of the SRL will extend and retract freely, with no slack
or hesitation, as the user moves at normal speeds.
In the event of a fall, Safewaze SRLs are equipped with a speed-sensing braking
system. The braking system will activate, stop the fall, and absorb much of the energy
created by the fall. Due to the speed-sensing braking system, the user should avoid
quick or sudden movements, as they may cause the SRL to inadvertently lock. If the
user is performing operations near the end of the working length of the SRL, a reserve
line is incorporated within the SRL to reduce fall arrest forces.
