SHOCK ABSORBING LANYARD INSPECTION CRITERIA - USER – BEFORE USE INSPECTION
The user needs to check the following points

If any of the above faults are present then harness should be referred to a height safety inspector
for further inspection.
Examine all stitching areas to ensure that no stitching has been cut, broken, heat or chemical damage or stretching
Check all hooks, karabiners and/or attachment devices for:
- Double action closing and locking
- Ensure gate/catch locks close and cannot be opened by one action
- Check metal components for corrosion, heat damage, bending, warping and twisting
