medications, cardiovascular problems, etc ) during normal use of the PPE and
in emergencies In any case of doubt, consult your physician
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The retractable type fall arrester must be attached to a reliable anchorage by its
connectors. The connector with the permanent integrated swiveling element must
be attached to the attaching point of the fall arrest harness (cf EN 361:2002).
During the ascent and/or the descent of the user, the retractable lanyard will be
kept in tension by the retracting spring integrated into the equipment. In event of a
fall, the clamping internal system will stop the retractable lanyard uncoiling thanks
to the activation of a calibrated lock which will stop the fall in optimal conditions.
The equipment is adjusted in factory so, to keep its results, under no
circumstances its adjustment must be changed.
THE CHANGE OF AN ADJUSTMENT WOULD MAKE THE EQUIPMENT
DANGEROUS
CHECKING BEFORE USE
Before each use, carry out a thorough visual examination to ensure that the PPE,
as well as any other equipment with which it could be associated (connector,
lanyard…) is complete. Make all necessary arrangements for the implementation
of any rescue in total safety. In the event of your product being damaged, consult
the manufacturer or his agent. If you have any doubts regarding the safe condition
of the product, or if the product has been used to arrest a fall,it is essential to
your personal safety that the PPE be withdrawn from service and sent back to the
manufacturer or a qualified repair centre for checking, or destruction. Following
examination, the centre will either deliver or refuse written authorisation to
reuse the PPE. It is strictly forbidden to modify or repair a PPE yourself. Only the
manufacturer or a repair centre is qualified to carry out these repairs (fig. 1.1).
When the system is delivered with an integrated equipment, it is forbidden to
replace one of the components of this system. Carefully check the following
points:
• All the cable or the webbing winds out and in freely.
• The braking function operates by giving a quick tug on the cable, strap. The
cable, strap should brake immediately. (Picture 1.2)
• The device is in good condition and the screws and the closing rivets are
present and suitably fixed.
• The extremity of the cable or the webbing is suitably swaged or sewed.
• The carabiners provided with the device function and lock correctly
• There is no trace of corrosion on the metallic parts.
• The cable or webbing does not show any sign of wear(tear, fraying, breaking,
corrosion, etc…) (Picture 1.3)
NOTE
Self-retractable fall arresters are designed essentially to operate in a vertical
position. However, Some models are also capable of operating in the horizontal
position (for confirmation, contact the maker of his agent). But, before installing, it
is highly advisable to check there is no risk of pendulum movement and to protect
the cable, strap from any cutting edges or abrasive surfaces . For retractable fall
arrester fitted with a fall indicator, check before use that the fall indicator has not
been activated. Its activation demonstrates that the device has been subjected to
a fall or a significant traction force. In this case, the device must be returned to the
manufacturer or to a certified repair centre for checks (Picture 2)
