WARNING:

 

Consult your doctor if there is reason to doubt your fitness to safely absorb the shock from a 

fall arrest. Age and fitness seriously affect a worker’s ability to withstand falls. Pregnant women or minors 

must not use Safewaze FBH’s. Failure to heed this warning may result in serious injury or death.

Should the Safewaze Body Harness be exposed to an the force of a fall, or shows damage consistent with the effects of a 

fall, it must be IMMEDIATELY removed from service. Equipment must then be disposed of (See Section 19.5).

 17.2  AFTER A FALL 

Inspect the FBH, as described in Section 19,

 

before using the equipment. Refer to Figure 17 for the most common FBH 

connections. Ensure connections are compatible in size, shape, and strength. Ensure hooks are fully closed and locked. 

 17.1  OPERATION 

Figure 17 illustrates typical harness connections when working at heights, including work positioning and rescue 

operations. When using a snap hook to make a connection, ensure roll-out cannot occur (See Figure 4). Do not use snap 

hooks or carabiners that will not completely close over the anchor point. This includes traditional overhead anchor point 

tie off, SRL housing attachment to dorsal D-ring, and 100% tie off. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions supplied with 

each system component.
