SRD
(Figure 12)
Inspect for loose bolts and bent or damaged parts.
Inspect Housing (A) for distortion, cracks, or other damage.
Inspect the Swivel Eye (B) for distortion, cracks, or other damage. The Swivel Eye should be attached
securely to the SRL, but should pivot freely.
The Lifeline (C) should pull out and retract fully without hesitation or creating a slack line condition.
Ensure device locks up when lifeline is jerked sharply. Lockup should be positive with no slipping.
NOTE: SRLs with RSQ should be in Fall Arrest Mode for this test (see Figure 8)
The labels must be present and fully legible (see
“Labels”
).
Look for signs of corrosion on the entire unit.
Swivel Snap Hook &
Impact Indicator
(Figure 13)
Inspect the Swivel Snap Hook for signs of damage, corrosion, and working condition. Swivel should
rotate freely. Inspect the Impact Indicator. If the Red Band is displayed (Indicated Mode), impact
loading has occurred and the SRL must be removed from service and inspected. Do not attempt to
reset the Impact Indicator. Return the SRL to an authorized service center for resetting. NOTE: The
Swivel will not turn freely when the Impact Indicator is in Indicated Mode.
Wire Rope Lifeline
(Figure 14)
Inspect wire rope for cuts, kinks, broken wires, bird-caging, welding splatter, corrosion, chemical
contact areas, or severely abraded areas. Slide the cable bumper up and inspect ferrules for cracks or
damage and inspect the wire rope for corrosion and broken wires. Replace the wire rope assembly if
there are six or more randomly distributed broken wires in one lay, or three or more broken wires in
one strand in one lay. A “lay” of wire rope is the length of wire rope it takes for a strand (the larger
groups of wires) to complete one revolution or twist along the rope. Replace the wire rope assembly if
there are any broken wires within 1 inch (25 mm) of the ferrules.
Reserve Lifeline
(Figure 15)
Inspect the Reserve Lifeline payout. If a fall has been arrested with most of the lifeline out, the
Reserve Lifeline may have been deployed. Pull the lifeline out of the SRD until it stops. If the Button
Stop (A) pulls out and is visible, the Reserve Lifeline is spent and the lifeline should be replaced.
Retrieval Integral
Rescue Hand Crank
(Figure 16)
Inspect the Crank Arm (A) for distortion or other damage. Ensure that the Retrieval Handle (B) can be
folded out and secured in the cranking position.
Ensure the Retrieval Shift Knob (C) can be pulled out to the unlocked position and then released,
locking the Crank Arm in both the engaged and disengaged positions.
Test the retrieval feature for proper operation by raising and lowering a test weight of at least 75 lbs
(34 kg). When the Retrieval Handle is released, the weight should not move and the Retrieval Handle
should remain in position (no movement). A ‘clicking’ sound should be audible when raising the load.
