WARNING:
If it is unclear to the operator or competent person that the
supporting structure, roof sheeting or anchor is structurally inadequate,
they must be assessed by an engineer.
Step 4: Once you have safely ascended the ladder, slide the bottom
angle iron of the portable roof anchor under the roof sheeting. The
cylindrical support post must rest in the pan of the roof sheeting. Both
locking cam levers must also be located within the roof sheeting pans.
If they do not fit within the pan, reposition the locking cams into an
alternative adjustment position along the L-angle until they do. Note:
When adjusting the position of the locking levers, ensure left and right
levers are correctly installed. Refer to section 6, Figure Eight a & b for
correct orientation.
Step 5: Securely push down
locking cam levers onto roof
sheeting to achieve a solid
connection. Once the anchor is
attached and your anchorage
line is secured to the anchor
point, throw the rope over
to the other side of the roof
such that the anchor line is
accessible without climbing
onto the roof. Refer to Figure
Five.
