2.0 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
2.1
COMPATIBILITY OF COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS:
This equipment is designed for use with DBI-SALA approved
components and subsystems. The use of non-approved components and subsystems (i.e. harnesses, lanyards, etc.) may
jeopardize compatibility of equipment, and could affect the safety and reliability of the complete system. If you have
questions on the installation or suitability of this equipment for your application, contact DBI-SALA.

any other type of climb assist system, including a powered climb assist system, may be incompatible with the
Lad-Saf™
Ladder Safety System and Detachable Cable Sleeves
, and could create a serious safety hazard for the user. Do not use
non-DBI-SALA climb assist systems without first consulting a competent person and/or a qualified person at your worksite
for approval. If you have additional questions about compatibility, please contact 3M Technical Services.
ANSI Z359.1-2007 Safety Requirements for Personal Fall Arrest Systems, Subsystems and
Components, requires a competent person and/or a qualified person to “ensure that systems
assembled from components and subsystems made by different manufacturers meet the
requirements of this standard.”
Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury or death to users of the Lad-Saf
™
Ladder Safety System and Detachable Cable Sleeve.
