resulting from a fall (see 3.0 System Requirements).

• For ease of installation, the Vi-Go Installation Kit (TRIK)

 may be purchased

separately.  Contact your Miller distributor.

Persons installing the system must use caution and shall not be ex-

posed to a fall hazard during the installation procedure.  Do not con-

nect to any component of a partially installed system.

System Installation Overview:  The recommended installation procedure of the Vi-Go Vertical Cable Lifeline Sys-
tem is to install from the top of the ladder down.
