To be used in combination
1.) Information – read carefully
The manual (1.1 “General instructions”, and 1.2 “Product-specific
instructions”) must be available in the national language at all
times. If not available, then the vendor has to resolve this matter
with SKYLOTEC prior to sale. The instructions must be made
available to the user.
The equipment may only be used by
professional users who are in good condition, both mentally and
physically,
who have received training in its safe usage and who
possess the required knowledge, or are acting under the supervision
of such persons. A rescue plan must be available for any eventuality.
It must be possible to implement rescue measures in a timely
manner.
2.) Fall-arrest system
A fall-arrest system consists of the illustrated individual components
and may only be used with tested and approved components under
the
specified operational conditions and for the intended purpose.
Care has to be taken for the combination of individual components
to ensure the safe function of all components and the composite
system;
failure to comply represents a risk of serious or fatal injury.
Only a full body harness is allowed to be used in the fall-arrest
system (with fall arrest eyelet marked “A”).
Anchoring points should
be select / position directly above the user, if possible. Restrict the
falling height to a minimum distance. The anchor point must meet
the requirements for the scope of application (Abb. 1+2). Also, the
substructure to which the anchoring device is fastened, and the
connecting elements have to be able to withstand the load. A shock
absorbing element must be used which limits the force to which on
the user is exposed in the event of a fall to the maximum arresting
force permitted according to national regulations, for example in
Europe this is 6 kN (EN 355). For more information on this, see the
instructions for using of the individual components.
3.) Prior to use
Prior to each use, it has to be ensured that the clearance beneath
the user is sufficient, so that in case of a fall, there will be no impact
with the ground, objects, or equipment below.
3.1.) Check the complete personal protective equipment (PPE) and
its individual components for damage, cracks or wear (including
snaphooks, straps, textile and metal components, adjusting
