6.
Lower the rope tag line ‘sling
first’ through the GMA base and
the slot in the gridmesh. It may
be necessary to squeeze the eye
of the sling so that it fits through
the mesh.
7.
Once lowered, the worker
below should connect a self
retracting lifeline, rope or
other device to be used for fall
protection. They should also
ensure a tag line is connected to
the SRL to ensure the device is
accessible once set in place.
8.
Raise the sling with SRL
attached by hauling the
connected tag line in reverse
through the gridmesh, such that
the end of the sling protrudes
through the gridmesh and the
base of the GMA.
9.
Slide the GMA beam end
through the sling and slide into
position, such that the beam can
rest into its operating position
within the GMA base. The SRL is
now set for use.
10.
Once the installation is
completed, the worker below the
GMA will pull the tag line attached
to the SRL and attach the connector
to the harness. The worker is now
ready to commence work.
11.
Disassemble by following the
steps listed above in reverse.

NOTE:
ONE USER
The Gridmesh Anchor is
predominantly designed for one
person as a fall arrest device.
Third party testing has verified
the device as meeting the
performance requirements for a
15kN rating. Access to testing
information can be accessed from
the website. Additional laboratory
testing by Gridmesh Anchor
verifies the device is capable of
a 22.2kN rating and third party
testing is presently underway to
provide this
evidence.
