4.0 USE
4.1 BEFORE EACH USE: Verify that your work area and Fall Protection system meet all criteria defined in these instructions.
Verify that a formal Rescue Plan is in place. Inspect the product per the points of the “Inspection and Maintenance Log” .
If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, or if any doubt should arise about its condition for safe use, remove
the product from service immediately. Clearly tag the system “DO NOT USE”. See Section 5 for more information.
4.2 MAKING CONNECTIONS: When using a hook to connect to an anchorage or when coupling components of the system
together, ensure roll-out cannot occur. Roll-out occurs when interference between the hook and mating connector causes
the hook gate to unintentionally open and release. Self-locking snap hooks and carabiners should be used to reduce the
possibility of roll-out. Do not use hooks or connectors that will not completely close over the attachment object. See
subsystem manufacturer’s instructions for more information on making connections.
