WARNING 

1.  A lanyard assembly should be secured to an anchorage 

point that is at a level which will result in the minimum 

free fall and the least total fall distance consistent with 

the wearer’s ability to carry out work tasks. The maximum 

allowable free fall is no more than 2 m.

2.  Energy absorbers that absorb energy by permanent 

deformation or destructive action should be discarded if 

that process has commenced.
