INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE!
Read and understand the entire instructions for use before using the
equipment!
Support system: EN 358
The support line is used in combination with a support belt, sitting harness or
similar for work positioning and to prevent a fall, EN 358, EN 813. The support line
shall always be anchored above the user’s waist and in an extended position. The
equipment may not be exposed to fall force !
The line is made from polyamide fibre model core-mantelled 32-plaited 12 mm and
has a breaking strength of at least 22 kN.
The line is fitted with an aluminium control lock , which allows the user quick and safe
adjustment of his/her equipment using only one hand. The support line is attached
to the support belt/sitting harness and thereafter to an approved anchorage point
in accordance with EM-795, or an equivalent if it can cope with a load of 12 kN,
alternatively in one of the belt’s D-rings and around the fastening and back to the
other D-ring (ensure that the hook and control lock are correctly anchored in your
D-rings before you take support/load the line). Or you attach from the EN-813 eyelet
and one turn around the structure and back to the eyelet or around another part as a
choke hitch or tie-back.
Anchorage sling:
EN 795b
The line is also certified in accordance with EN 795b for use as an anchorage sling if
necessary. The anchorage line may be used by one person as an anchorage point in
a fall protection system and the fall protection system ought to comprise one EN 355
as part of the system. The anchorage line has no deflection greater than 3%.
Lanyard:
The line is also certified as a lanyard EN 354 for use in several
applications.
Warning!
Work in a fall protection environment requires that the user is fully healt-
hy (ref EN-365), has completed training in the use of the equipment and is aware of
the risks that can arise. Prior to starting to work in fall risk environments plans shall
be made for how to evacuate a person who has fallen or been injured and/or possibly
been left hanging in the harness. If the user were to fall unconscious in a suspended
position it is vital to get him/her down to the ground as fast as possible.
Warning!
The harness may not be modified or re-engineered with accessories
other than those supplied by the manufacturer. Repairs or replacement of parts may
only be carried out by the manufacturer.
Warning!
The harness is only for Personal Protection Equipment use. All other
usage is forbidden. The line may
NOT
be used as lifting equipment. If possible each
user shall have their own Personal Protection Equipment (ref EN-365).
Warning!
For connection to a system in accordance with EN-363:2008 the user
shall be fully conversant with all the functions of the component parts and their use.
And understand the forces than can occur in the anchorage point’s design max 6 kN
with double safety = 12 kN. In case of doubt contact your dealer or the manufacturer.
Prior to each use: Carry out a careful visual check of the material and function and
ensure that the equipment works. Be careful in relation to tape breaches, broken
seams/stitching, cut damage, discolouration, damaged hooks and snaplocks.

tely be discarded and replaced.
Warning!
For connection to a support system the anchorage point shall be of an
approved type in accordance with EN-795 or the equivalent, and cope with a static
loading of 12 kN. The support line shall always be anchored above the user’s waist
and in an extended position. The support line is adjusted so that a fall of 0.5 metres
or more cannot occur. This shall be checked regularly during use.
NOTE!
The equipment’s material or its function can be affected if it is exposed
to: extremely high temperature, chemicals, electrical current, grinding, cropping,
