When using lanyards commonly referred to
as "100% tie-off”, "Y" type, "double" or "twin
leg" shock absorbing lanyards. This
supplement provides additional information
on the use of these types of lanyards that are
used with a personal fall arrest systems.
Practices that must be followed in order to
use a 100% tie-off lanyard safely.
1.
The shock absorber pack portion of the
lanyard assembly MUST be connected
to the back dorsal D-ring ONLY, by way
of a double locking lanyard snap hook
(other connectors provided, consult
ULTRA-SAFE, INC.) connect shock
absorber directly to the dorsal D-ring.
2.
Do not connect shock absorber to the
anchorage point at any time.
3.
Do not connect the unused leg of the
lanyard assembly to any portion of the
full body harness, unless a specifically
designed lanyard snap hook loop
retainer is provided for this purpose.
4.
When connecting from one anchorage
point to the next (traversing a vertical or
horizontal structure) do not connect to
an anchorage point further apart than,
the length of the lanyard.
5.
When using a 100% tie-off lanyard
assembly, do not allow any part of the
lanyard to pass under arms or legs.
6.
Connection of both lanyard legs to
separate
anchorage
points
is
acceptable, as long as anchorage
points are within the length of the
lanyard.
