can cause increased swing fall in multiple directions in the event of a fall.
4.0 USE
;
Consult your doctor if there is any reason to doubt your fitness to safely absorb the shock from a fall arrest or
suspension. Age and fitness seriously affect a worker’s ability to withstand falls. Pregnant women or minors must not
use DBI-SALA equipment unless in an emergency situation.
;
Never exceed the Capacity requirements specified in Table 1. Exceeding the stated capacity could collapse or tip the
system, resulting in serious injury or death.
;
The SafRig Fall Arrest System may be used for Fall Arrest applications only. Do not connect lifting equipment to this
system.
4.1 BEFORE EACH USE: Verify that your work area and Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS) meet all criteria defined in
Section 2 and a formal Rescue Plan is in place. Inspect the SafRig FAS per the ‘ User ’ inspection points defined on the
“ Inspection and Maintenance Log ” (Table 2). If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, do not use the
SafRig FAS. Remove the system from service, clearly mark “DO NOT USE”, and destroy it or contact 3M regarding
replacement.
4.2 SAFE WORK AREA: Figure 3 illustrates the Safe Work Area for the SafRig FAS. The gray shading on the table designates
safe working distances where the angle of the Lifeline is less than or equal to 30° from vertical and the Horizontal
Distance (H) from the anchorage connection point is less than or equal to 1.82 m (6.0 ft.). Never work at a Horizontal
Distance (H) and Vertical Distance (V) that results in a calculated Vertical Fall Distance (F) exceeding the gray shaded
values on the table in Figure 3.
4.3 SYSTEM CONNECTIONS: The SafRig FAS must be used with a Full Body Harness and Fall Arrest subsystem. Consult the
instructions provided with your respective Fall Arrest equipment for additional details regarding proper connection and
use.

Protection System per the frequencies and procedures defined in the manufacturer’s instructions.
Record the inspection date on the inspected equipment. Record the inspection date and results on the “Inspection and
Maintenance Log” at the back of this manual.
5.2 DEFECTS: If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, or if any doubt should arise as to its condition for safe
use, remove the SafRig FAS from service immediately and clearly mark it “DO NOT USE”. Destroy the system or contact
3M regarding replacement. Do not attempt to repair the SafRig FAS.
5.3 PRODUCT LIFE: The functional life of the SafRig FAS is determined by work conditions and maintenance. As long as the
product passes inspection criteria, it may remain in service.
6.0 MAINTENANCE, SERVICING, STORAGE
6.1 CLEANING: Periodically clean the metal components of the SafRig FAS with a soft brush, warm water, and a mild soap

replacement.
6.3 STORAGE AND TRANSPORT: The SafRig FAS is designed to be stored outdoors during normal weather conditions. If
the weather is severe, it is recommended to store the system in an area that protects against damage to the system.
Store the SafRig FAS and associated fall protection equipment in a cool, dry, clean environment out of direct sunlight.
Avoid areas where chemical vapors may exist. Thoroughly inspect components after extended storage. If the system is
transported long distances, it should be disassembled and all components secured and protected from severe conditions
during transport.
