Section 9: Maintenance and Storage
The service life of your FallTech Contractor Series Cable SRL will
depend on two factors: The environmental conditions of your working
environment along with proper care (specifically, maintenance and
storage).
Keeping the SRL clean and free of contaminants will greatly increase
the service life and will ensure that the SRL will be in proper working
order in the event that you need it to arrest a fall. The following steps
should be taken periodically:
1. Always wear gloves when handling the cable element of the
SRL.
2. Using a damp rag and a mild soap and water solution, wipe
down the SRL housing to remove soil and surface contaminants.
Ensure that the labels are legible at all times.
3. Use a damp rag and a mild soap and water solution to clean the
cable element of the SRL. Allow it to air dry and then use a rag
that is damp with a light machine oil to condition the cable.
4. Use a damp rag to clean the surfaces of any connecting
hardware.
5. If there is an excessive build up of paint, oil, dirt tar or other
contaminants that cannot be removed, remove the SRL from
service and have it replaced.
6. Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and where
it will not be exposed to chemical vapors.
7. This SRL should be hung on a rack or a peg or stored flat on a
shelf, stacked no more than three high.
8. Do not throw the SRL into a pile or a locker or storage box, as
this may damage the housing.
FallTech Contractor SRL’s do not require recertification . Provided
your SRL passes inspection, has been maintained and is in serviceable
condition, there is no need to send it in. If your SRL is in need of repair
or you are concerned about its condition, return it to the place of
purchase to arrange and inspection and/or repair through an authorized
service center. For further details, contact FallTech.
