3.4 MAKING CONNECTIONS: Self locking snap hooks or self locking and
self closing gate carabiners must be used to reduce the possibility of
roll-out when making connections. See sections 2.2 and 2.3. Do not
use hooks or connectors that will not completely close over the
attachment object. Do not use non-locking snap hooks. Always follow
the manufacturer's instructions supplied with each system component.
3.5 SET UP AND INSTALLATION: The anchorage point for the RPD must
be capable of supporting a 2,500 lb. minimum static load in the
direction of operational pull. The anchor may be a tripod, building
structure or other suitable anchoring point. The unit may be attached in
the following manner:
A. Attachment can be made directly through the top loop in the RPD
housing using the connection hook provided. The hook can be
connected directly to the anchor point or to the connection sling
which has been attached to the anchorage via a straight loop,
choker, or basket loop. See Figure 4.
B. Attachment can be made directly through the top loop in the RPD
housing using the connection sling provided. Use a choker or
basket loop to connect the sling to the RPD. See Figure 4.
C. Rig the RPD system
directly above the
intended working area.
If the RPD is not rigged
directly overhead, a
swing fall situation
could occur. Swing falls
occur when a worker
swings and strikes an
immovable object. See
Figure 7.
D. After attaching the RPD
to the proper anchorage
over the working area,
attach the travelling
pulley to the personnel
support device using a
self locking/closing
carabiner. See Figure 8.
