Two EN 362 certified triple locking carabiners are installed on the primary and
secondary attachment points of the RipCord assembly for Participant connec-
tion. Two plastic Lanyard Keepers prevent the carabiners from rotating within
their attachment points. Two EN 362 certified attachment rings are installed
to connect the RipCord to the two Upper Webbings. The carabiners, lanyard
keepers, and webbing connection rings must be checked and be in service-
able condition according to the Manufacturer’s instructions before any use.
Ensure the carabiners are only loaded along the vertical direction (i.e. not cross
loaded).
The carabiners can be replaced with other EN 362 certified connectors at the
Owner/Installer/Operator’s discretion with the following requirements:
ƒ If a continuous or smart belay system (or any other system) lengthens
the distance between the Participant and the attachment points of the
RipCord, the minimum Nozzle to Platform distance must be increased
by the amount the connection is lengthened. The maximum Nozzle to
Platform distance may be increased by the same amount.
ƒ The Participant must remain connected to both the Primary and Sec-
ondary attachment points of the RipCord.
ƒ Any connector utilized must be suitably rated and meet the require-
ments of any applicable international, federal, state or provincial stan-
dards for its application.
ƒ When connections are made using carabiners, only triple locking
carabiners with a lanyard retaining feature are to be used. Head Rush
Technologies recommends the use of the Petzl Am’D carabiner with
Captiv lanyard keeper.
ƒ Connections to the QuickFlight and QuickFlight XL webbing assembly
have the potential for additional wear and must be included in daily
webbing inspections.
