WARNING
This Anchorage Connector is part of a personal fall protection system. It is expected that all users be fully trained in the safe installation and operation
of their personal fall protection system. Misuse of this device could result in serious injury or death. For proper selection, operation, installation,
maintenance, and service, refer to these User Instructions and all manufacturer recommendations, see your supervisor, or contact 3M Technical Service.
• To reduce the risks associated with working with an Anchorage Connector which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or
death:
- Inspect the device before each use, at least annually, and after any fall event. Inspect in accordance with the User Instructions.
- If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, remove the device from service and repair or replace according to the User Instructions.
- Any device that has been subject to fall arrest or impact force must be immediately removed from service and destroyed.
- The device must only be installed in the specified substrates or on structures detailed in the User Instructions. Installations and use outside the
scope of this instruction must be approved by 3M Fall Protection.
- The substrate or structure to which the anchorage connector is attached must be able to sustain the static loads specified for the anchor in the
orientations permitted in the User Instructions.
- Only connect other fall protection subsystems to the designated anchorage connection point on the device.
- Prior to drilling or fastening, ensure no electric lines, gas lines, or other critical embedded systems will be contacted by the drill or the device.
- Ensure that fall protection systems/subsystems assembled from components made by different manufacturers are compatible and meet the
requirements of applicable standards, including the ANSI Z359 or other applicable fall protection codes, standards, or requirements. Always
consult a Competent or Qualified Person before using these systems.
- (TIE-OFF ADAPTERS) Ensure the tie-off adapter device is tight against the anchoring structure. Never leave slack in the tie-off adapter device.
• To reduce the risks associated with working at height which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death:
- Ensure your health and physical condition allow you to safely withstand all of the forces associated with working at height. Consult with your
doctor if you have any questions regarding your ability to use this equipment.
- Never exceed allowable capacity of your fall protection equipment.
- Never exceed maximum free fall distance of your fall protection equipment.
- Do not use any fall protection equipment that fails pre-use or other scheduled inspections, or if you have concerns about the use or suitability
of the equipment for your application. Contact 3M Technical Services with any questions.
- Some subsystem and component combinations may interfere with the operation of this equipment. Only use compatible connections. Consult
3M prior to using this equipment in combination with components or subsystems other than those described in the User Instructions.
- Use extra precautions when working around moving machinery (e.g. top drive of oil rigs) electrical hazards, extreme temperatures, chemical
hazards, explosive or toxic gases, sharp edges, or below overhead materials that could fall onto you or your fall protection equipment.
- Use Arc Flash or Hot Works devices when working in high heat environments.
- Avoid surfaces and objects that can damage the user or equipment.
- Ensure there is adequate fall clearance when working at height.
- Never modify or alter your fall protection equipment. Only 3M or parties authorized in writing by 3M may make repairs to the equipment.
- Prior to use of fall protection equipment, ensure a rescue plan is in place which allows for prompt rescue if a fall incident occurs.
- If a fall incident occurs, immediately seek medical attention for the worker who has fallen.
- Do not use a body belt for fall arrest applications. Use only a Full Body Harness.
- Minimize swing falls by working as directly below the anchorage point as possible.
- If training with this device, a secondary fall protection system must be utilized in a manner that does not expose the trainee to an unintended
fall hazard.
- Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment when installing, using, or inspecting the device/system.
