on the Horizontal Lifeline
1. Inspect all equipment before use according to the manufac-
turer’s instructions.
2. Properly fit the full-body harness. Refer to the donning in
-
structions provided with the harness.
3. Ensure that the structure being worked on is properly support-
ed before connecting to the horizontal lifeline. Use necessary
fall protection equipment while approaching the horizontal
lifeline.
4. Install the Xenon Shuttle to the lifeline by pressing and holding
the button on the side of the shuttle while pushing in on the
attachment ring to open the cable channel jaws. Then insert
the shuttle over the lifeline and release.
WARNING: Once installed,
ensure that the cable channel
jaws are completely closed and locked.
When closed and locked, the
gap width between the jaws will be between
1/16" (1.6mm) and 5/32" (4mm) maximum
without any load being applied.
5. Connect one end of the shock-absorbing lanyard or self-
retracting lifeline/fall limiter to the back D-ring of the harness
and the other to the attachment ring on the shuttle. Refer to
the instructions provided with the connecting device. Ensure
that all connections are compatible and that all connectors,
such as snap hooks or carabiners, are closed and locked.
6. Proceed along the lifeline. The snap hook (or connector)
of the shock-absorbing lanyard or self-retracting lifeline/fall
limiter must remain connected to the shuttle and the shuttle
to the lifeline at all times along the length of the system. The
Xenon Shuttle will self-align to navigate past intermediate
brackets.
NOTE: The shuttle should always be removed from the hori-
zontal lifeline after use and cleaned and stored according to
