Full Body Harnesses
Only Full Body Harnesses may be used with a Safewaze Cable Horizontal Lifeline.
Use of Energy Absorbing Lanyards
Fall Clearance Requirements when utilizing a 6’ Energy Absorbing Lanyard with the
HLL system are indicated in the fall clearance table (Section 10, page 15) of this
manual. The fall clearance distances indicated are the total required from the properly
installed HLL system to the next lower level or obstruction. The user should ensure
that the distance between the installed lifeline and the next lower level is at least equal
to, or greater than the values given in Section 10, page 15 of this manual prior to use of
the HLL system. Failure to calculate proper fall clearances prior to use of the system
could result in serious injury or death.
Note: Never use combinations of components or subsystems that may affect, or
interfere with the safe function of each other.
Use of Self-Retracting Devices
Fall Clearance Requirements when utilizing an SRL with the HLL system in an
overhead installation are indicated in the fall clearance table (Section 10.1, page 16) of
this manual. When using Personal SRLs with the HLL system, where the
installation could possibly be below dorsal D-ring Height, refer to the fall clearance
table (Section 10.2, page 17) of this manual. The user must ensure that the
Personal SRL being utilized is not connected to the HLL at a distance below the dorsal
D-ring, which exceeds the maximum allowed as specified by the SRL manufacturer.
When calculating fall clearance distances, the user must add the total deflection of
the HLL system during a fall event, to the total deceleration distance of the SRL being
used. The combination of the system deflection, and the deceleration distance of the
SRL, when added to the Harness Stretch of the full body harness, worker’s height, and
Safety Factor equals the minimum required fall clearance. Failure to calculate proper
fall clearances prior to use of the system could result in serious injury or death.
