Instructions for use
Safety considerations
1. Fall arrestors in accordance with EN 360:2002/ CSA Z259.2.2 / ANSI / ASSE Z359.1-2007, Z359.14-
2014 represent personal safety equipment serving to protect the user in conjunction with a safety
harness EN 361:2002 / CSA Z259.10-06 / ANSI / ASSE Z359.1-2007 where falling hazards exist. The
device must only be used corresponding to its intended purpose
(

)
.
2. Failure to comply with the instructions for use could result in a danger to life. In the event of an arrest
fall, the user must be recovered from suspension as soon as possible. This device shall be removed
from service, when the visual load applicator is deployed
(

)
. A rescue plan taking into account all
possible rescue scenarios during the work must be drawn up
(

)
.
3. This device can only protect one person at a time during use
(

)
.
4. Fall arrest safety harness to EN 361:2002 / CSA Z259.10-06 / ANSI / ASSE Z359.1-2007 with a front
attachment point, should be used with this device. The device whenever possible should be connected
by the attachment point (see figure A, point 1), to the front fall arrest attachment point of the user’s
safety harness. The device should be connected to the harness using a suitable connector conforming
to EN 362:2004 / CSA Z259.12-11 / ANSI /ASSE Z Z359.12-2009

.
5. Suitable anchorage points with sufficient load bearing capacity must be selected for the attachment of
the working lifelines via the swivel connector (see Figure A, point 3), (e.g. anchorage point corre -
sponding to EN 795 in Europe, North America the anchorage point or structure should be capable of
withstanding a force of 22.2 kN or twice a maximum of expected arrest force as certified by a qualified
person
(

)
.
6. This device offers protection to the user when climbing on structures, i.e. lattice steel towers. One
lifeline should always be attached. The attachment point of the lifeline, wherever possible, should be
above the height of the attachment point on the harness. This point should also be selected so as to
minimise the effect of a pendulum swing in the even of a fall.
7. If the device is attached to the rear attachment point of a fall arrest safety harness, the lifelines should
come over, not under, the user’s arms to the anchorage point during use.
8. The legibility of the product labeling must be checked each time before use (See Figure A, point 5).
9. A function test should be carried out before each use by pulling out each lifeline with a sharp pull. The
device must lock. The load indicating stitch pattern must also be checked. If the pattern is broken, the
device should not be used (see Figure A, point 4)
(

.
10. This fall arrester should not be used above granulated materials or similar substances into which they
can sink
(

)
.
11. A damaged device or a device that has been subjected to an arrested fall must be taken out of use
immediately. It may only be reused after inspection and re-certification by an approved service agent.
12. This device must be checked by an approved service agent every 12 months. The effectiveness and
durability of the height safety device depends on regular inspection and maintenance by an approved
service agent
(

)
.
13. If there is any evidence of damage to the webbing lifeline (see Figure A, point 2), i.e. cuts, tears, nicks,
worn edge, the device must be withdrawn from service and returned to an approved service agent for
repair
(

)
.
14. Guidance and legislation in the country of use must be followed.
15. The clear space below the user’s feet must be 2.0 m if the device is anchored above the user, and 3.8
m if anchorage point is located at the working level height.
16. This device can be used in the temperature range from -40° to +50° C
(
11
)
.
17. The working load limit is 136 kg
(
12
)
.
18. This device must be protected against the effects of welding flames and sparks, fire, acids, caustic
solutions and similar.
19. No changes or modifications should be made to this device.
20. Note: fall arrestors may only be used by persons who have received corresponding training or who
have gained expertise in another way. Their health or state of mind must not be impaired in any way
(alcohol, drugs, medicines, heart or circulation problems).
21. The service life of the fall arrestor must be determined during the annual test. This is approx. 10 years,
depending on the use to which it is subjected.
