The Energy Absorbing Lanyard shall be inspected by the user before each use and, additio-
nally, by a competent person other than the user at intervals of no more than one year5.
Inspection procedures are described in the "Inspection Checklist" (Table 1). Results of
each Competent Person inspection should be recorded on copies of the "Inspection and
Maintenance Log" (lanyards).
4.2 UNSAFE OR DEFECTIVE CONDITIONS:
If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, remove the lanyard from service and
destroy. Lanyards are not repairable.
4.3 PRODUCT LIFE:
The functional life of the lanyard is determined by work conditions and maintenance. As
long as the lanyard passes inspection criteria, it may remain in service.
Warning: Failure to properly inspect the lanyard could result in product failure and serious
injury or death.
Competent Person: One who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the
surroundings or working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to
employees, and who has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.
Inspection Frequency: Extreme working conditions (harsh environments, prolonged use,
etc.) may require increasing the frequency of competent person inspections.
5.0 MAINTENANCE, SERVICING, STORAGE
5.1 Clean lanyard with water and a mild detergent solution. Wipe off hardware with a clean,
dry cloth, and hang to air dry. Do not force dry with heat. An excessive buildup of dirt, paint,
etc., may prevent the lanyard from working properly, and in severe cases degrade the
webbing or rope to a point where it has become weakened and should be removed from
service.
5.2 Store the lanyard in a cool, dry, clean environment out of direct sunlight. Avoid areas
where chemical vapors may exist. Thoroughly inspect the lanyard or energy absorber
component after extended storage.
