INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS:

The following requirements outline the proper installation procedures to be followed.

Location:

ƒ

Select a location on an appropriate strength anchorage that will provide overall safety and proper loading. The anchorage

must be free of deformities or defects that may weaken the structure. The anchorage to which the SRL is attached must be
capable of sustaining static loads in the directions applied by the personal fall arrest systems of at least 3,600lbs with
certification of a qualified person, or 5,000lbs without certification.

ƒ

When more than one person is attached to the same structure, the strength requirements stated above must be multiplied by

the number of personal fall arrest systems.

ƒ

Do not work above the anchorage point. While using an SRL, always ensure that there is constant tension on the cable.

Slack in the cable could result in an increase in fall distance. Move normally as sudden jerky movements will allow the
locking mechanism to engage.

ƒ

Do not install in an area where a swing fall hazard potentially could exist. Failure to do so could result in injury or

possibly death.

ƒ

Keep these instructions for reference.










TRAINING:

It is the responsibility of the user and the purchaser of this equipment to assure that they are familiar with these instructions,
trained in the correct care and use of, and are aware of the operating characteristics, application limits, and the consequences of
improper use of this equipment.
