FIGURE 7: APPROPRIATE USE
INSTALLATION
1. To install the FS-EX310-1 Ring Anchor, place the anchor on the truss with its flat end pointed
down. The anchor should be installed as close to the ridge as possible. Utilize the (3) 5/16 in. x
3 in. Hex Lag Screws included. ALL screws and screw holes must be used. All fasteners must
be fully embedded into substrate to which they are attached. Minimum substrate thickness must
be 7/16 in. or greater, with fasteners attached through the roof substrate, with embedment into
truss (Figure 6).
2. The FS-EX310-1 can be reused and reinstalled. Fasteners can be reused if the pilot holes are
drilled prior to fastener installation. Pilot holes should be 7/32 in.
3. Prior to initial installation or subsequent removal and reinstallation, the user must ensure that
the FS-EX310-1 has no visible damage or defects. If removing and reinstalling the FS-EX310-1,
the user must ensure that no damage or warping has occurred due to prior installation or
removal. If any damage or defects are found the user must IMMEDIATELY remove the anchor
from service.
4. Once properly installed, the user may attach a complete and compatible Personal Fall Arrest
System to the O-Ring connection point on the FS-EX310-1.
FIGURE 6: INSTALLATION ILLUSTRATION
INSTALLATION PLANNING
The FS-EX310-1 Ring Anchor is designed to provide a fall protection anchorage for a single user.
It is designed for installation into wood roof material. The work location should be free of debris
and other materials or equipment that could interfere with the proper operation of this equipment.
Inspect the substrate to which the anchor will be attached. User should inspect the intended
installation location for hazards that include, but are not limited to, wood rot, severe weathering,
multiple layers of previously applied roofing material, electrical hazards, etc.
Installation of the anchor is permitted over sheathing materials such as underlayment/
roofing felt and shingles, provided the qualified engineer or Competent Person has
determined it is safe to do so and still maintains the proper safety factor.
WARNINGS
• Users should consult with their doctor to verify ability to safely absorb the forces of
a fall arrest event. Fitness level, age, and other health conditions can greatly affect
an individuals ability to withstand fall arrest forces. Women who are pregnant and
individuals considered minors must not use any Safewaze equipment.
• Anchors that are exposed to fall arrest forces MUST be IMMEDIATELY removed from
service and destroyed.
• Failure to follow these instructions and warnings could result in serious injury or death in
the event of a fall.
• A preplanned rescue procedure in the event of a fall is required. The rescue plan must be
specific to the project. The rescue plan must allow for employees to rescue themselves,
or to be promptly rescued by alternative means.
• Harnesses or connectors selected for use with any Safewaze anchor must be compatible
in size and configuration. User must ensure compatibility of snap hooks, carabiners, and
other connectors. Any connection which could allow disengagement must be eliminated.
Snap hooks and carabiners must be self-locking and self-closing and must never be
hooked to each other.
• A Competent Person must conduct an analysis of the workplace and anticipate where
workers will be conducting their duties, the route they will take to reach their work, and
the existing and potential fall hazards they may be exposed to. The Competent Person
must choose the fall protection equipment to be utilized.
• Equipment designated for fall protection must never be used to lift, hang, support, or
hoist tools or equipment unless specifically certified for such use.
INSPECTION
• Safewaze Anchors shall be inspected prior to each use by the user.
• The anchor must be inspected at least annually by a Competent Person other than the
user.
• Competent person inspections must be recorded in the inspection log included in this
manual and on the inspection grid label on the anchor.
• Severity of conditions during use of anchor may necessitate increased frequency of
documented inspections.
• Anchors that fail inspection MUST be removed from service.
• Prior to each use, inspect the anchor for deficiencies or damage including, but not limited
to, sharp edges, rough edges, deformations, corrosion, pits, burrs, chemical exposure,
extreme heat exposure, and damaged, missing, or illegible labels.
• If any deficiencies or defects are found, the anchor must IMMEDIATELY be removed
from service.

compressed air. Hardware can be wiped off with a clean, dry cloth.
When not in use, store the anchor in a cool, dry area where it will not be exposed to extreme
light, extreme heat, excessive moisture, or corrosive chemicals/materials.

The FS-EX310-1 is suitable for us in HLL applications. For HLL systems with a capacity of up
to 2 users, both users may work on the same side of the roof peak. For HLL systems with a
capacity of up to 4 users, ensure that only 2 users are on each side of the roof peak. See Figure
8 (1-5) for examples of the anchor used in conjuction with HLL systems.
