1 Usage
The anchor device tripod DB is a part of the personal safety equipment to protect against falling. It is used as
an anchor point type B according to DIN EN 795. The anchor device is authorised for use by a maximum of 2
persons. The catch systems to secure people may only be attached to the provided anchor points (ring eyes on
the tripod head). The two silver-coloured eyes on the bottom of the tripod head are for 2 people and the three
yellow eyes to the side of the tripod head are approved for one person. The tripod can only be used on a stable
surface. The anchor device may only be used for load lifting equipment.
The equipment may only be used with
a catch belt according to EN 361. The connection between the anchor point and the personal safety equipment
must be via a connection element according to EN 362. For catch systems, it is extremely important that the
required clearance is ensured at the work are under the user before each use so that, in the event of a fall, no
impact onto the ground or another obstacle is possible. To rescue people from shafts, containers or other lower
level work levels, a rescue lifting device can be attached on the tripod head or using an adapter DB on a leg of
the tripod according to EN1496 such as LiftEvac, Unidrive, MRG9 easy, M or MRG9 lift. The rope
of the rescue lifter is guided downward via a guide roller attached to the silver-coloured anchor eye of the
tripod head.
