LYNX TRIPOD SELECTION AND APPLICATIONS
4.1
PURPOSE OF LYNX TRIPOD:
The Lynx Tripod is primarily an anchorage connector component of a personal fall arrest system. It may also be
used for work positioning, ladder climbing, rescue, retrieval, evacuation, confi ned space entry/exit operations
and material lifting and lowering, depending on which attachment elements are included. See section 4.4.
Use of the Lynx Tripod must comply with these User Instructions and, further, is subject to approval under
the user’s safety rules and regulations, safety director, supervisor, or a qualifi ed safety engineer. Be certain
the selection of the Lynx Tripod is suited for the intended use and work environment. If there is any confl ict
between these User Instructions and other directives or procedures of the user’s organization, do not use the
Lynx Tripod until such confl icts are resolved. Consult all local, state, and federal Occupational Health and Safety
Administration (OSHA) requirements for personal safety equipment. Also refer to the latest revision of ANSI
Z359.1 and ANSI A10.14 standards for more information on anchorages and associated system components.
In Canada, refer to provincial and federal regulations and to CSA Z259.10, Z259.11 and Z259.1.
