All synthetic material must be protected from
VODJKRWVSDUNVRSHQÀDPHVRURWKHUKHDW
sources. The use of heat resistant materials is
recommended in these applications.
Never use natural materials (manila, cotton,
etc.) as part of a fall protection system.
Environmental hazards should be considered
when selecting fall protection equipment.
Equipment must not be exposed to chemicals
which may produce a harmful effect. Polyester
should be used in certain chemical or acidic
environments. Use in highly corrosive or
caustic environments dictates a more frequent
inspection and servicing program to ensure the
integrity of the device is maintained. Contact
Miller Technical Services if in doubt.
Do not allow equipment to come in contact
with anything that will damage it including, but
not limited to, sharp, abrasive, rough or high-
temperature surfaces, welding, heat sources,
electrical hazards, or moving machinery.
Always check for obstructions below the work
area to make sure potential fall path is clear.
Allow adequate fall clearance below the work
surface.
Never remove product labels, which include
important warnings and information for the
authorized person/user.
