Roofing Load Requirements

Before the Penetrator X3 and cart are hoisted to any roofing deck the user MUST VERIFY THAT 

THE DECK CAN ACCOMMODATE THE LOAD REQUIREMENTS.

Verify that the surface that the Penetrator X3 will be used on is capable of supporting both the unit and
personnel using it. Inspect that the entire area to determine if the working surfaces have the strength 
and to support users safely.

CAPACITY:

 The Penetrator X3 Mobile Fall Protection System is designed for a maximum of three persons 

for fall arrest and two for fall restraint with a combined weight (clothing, tools) of no more than
310 lbs. per person. No more than four persons may be connected to the Penetrator X3 at any time.
 

IMPORTANT: 

DO NOT start work for which fall protection is required until the Penetrator X3 and

corresponding FRS or PFAS have been completely installed. Do NOT disable any part of the FRS or 
PFAS, including the Penetrator X3 unit, or reposition the unit, until work for which fall protection is
required has ceased.
