Installation and Use

Before Each Use 

Users of personal fall arrest systems must have a rescue plan in place, if the user 

cannot rescue themselves, as well as the means to carry out the rescue.

 

The user must read and understand these User Instructions, as well as the User 

Instructions for every component/subsystem of the personal fall arrest system.
The entire SAFEWAZE™ FS805-KM Horizontal Lifeline system, and its subsystems, 

must be inspected prior to each use for wear, damage, and other deterioration.  All 

snaphooks and carabiners must be able to self-close and lock.  Check the operation 

of self retracting lanyards by pulling smoothly on the lifeline, then pull sharply on the 

lifeline to engage the locking mechanism.  All webbing and rope must be inspected 

for tears, cuts, fraying, abrasion, unsplicing, discoloration, or other signs of wear and 

damage.  Sewn terminations should be secure, complete, and not visibly damaged.  All 

rope splices should be secure.  System must be properly tensioned.  No load indicators 

shall be deployed.  Damaged and other deteriorated and defective components must 

be immediately removed from service, in accordance with the requirements of OSHA 

29 CFR 1910.66 and 1926.502.

System Installation

Step 1. Install Anchorage Connector

Other approved anchorage connectors may be used in place of the supplied Cross Arm 

Strap.  See anchorage connector user instructions for proper installation.

Step 2. Connect Thimble End of Rope 

Pass the thimble end of the rope through both O-rings and connect to the small D-ring 

of the Cross Arm Strap using the supplied carabiner.
