The equipment must be checked before and after every use. Special attention should be paid to the rope, carefully
checking the complete length for any possible damage. The rope-grab needs to be inspected for any damage also.
All hooks and catches must be operating correctly with self closing and a second action to secure.
BASIC HARNESS INSPECTION CRITERIA - USER – BEFORE USE INSPECTION
The user needs to check the following points
Date of manufacture: The harness cannot be older than 10 years from the date of manufacture. The reason for this
life limitation on a harness is because of possible UV degradation of the webbing.
Inspect webbing for:
Abrasion – scuff marks on webbing
Cuts – score marks or cuts in web
Heat- burn marks or shiny surfaces on web
Chemicals – grease, paint, acidic contact on web
Excessive stretching - Stitching loose
If any of the above faults are present then harness should be referred to a height safety inspector
for further inspection.
Check all buckles, adjusters and connection “D rings” for cuts, nicks, corrosion,
heat damage, bending, warping or twisting.
Examine all stitched areas to ensure that no stitching has been cut, broken,
heat or chemically damaged or stretched.
If harness has extension strap on rear “D” ring, check fall indicator to see if
harness has been shock loaded.
Check harness manufacture compliance with AS/NZS1891.1
If any conditions mentioned above are present, check with competent
person or refer your equipment to the supplier for inspection.
