11.0 MAINTENANCE, CARE & STORAGE
11.1 If the Engagement Arm has been activated by a fall, the Pivot Point Assembly (18) must be replaced before
using the unit in fall arrest. Refer to assembly drawings for the location and part number and Appendix C
for
replacement instructions.
11.2
Keep tires free from build up and debris. Asphalt or adhesive build up on the tires can cause the wheel brake to
function improperly.
11.3 Inspect all bolts, pins, springs, welds and paint for visible damage. Damaged or missing parts can prevent the
TriRex from working properly.
11.4 Maintain the paint finish to prevent corrosion. Use rust inhibitive paint compatible with the powder coat finish.
11.5 Store the TriRex in a place protected from the weather. Vinyl Weather Covers are available for long-term
outdoor storage. Contact your local distributor or Leading Edge Safety for pricing and availability.
11.6 Rotate the tires or block the axles to avoid flat spots on the tires during long-term storage.
12.0 IN THE EVENT OF A FALL
12.1 Call 911 and report the fall emergency immediately.
12.2 Follow your company policy and site-specific rescue plan.
12.2
Before attempting to rescue a fall victim connected to the TriRex, ensure the TriRex is stable with the claw
engaged into the substrate and/or all four tires are contacting the walking/working surface.
12.3 Rescuers should attach themselves in fall restraint to a secondary TriRex not involved in the fall or other
certified anchor point before attempting to rescue a fall victim. In the event a secondary TriRex or certified
anchor point is not available, rescuers may use the TriRex involved in the fall for fall restraint only.
12.4 If your TriRex is equipped with the Raptor Rescue Retrieval System, the fall victim should be lowered to the
ground to await emergency services. In the event the fall victim cannot be lowered to the ground, they may be
raised to the roof to await emergency services. Refer to the Raptor Rescue manual for complete instructions on
its use.
12.5 Once a fall victim has been recovered, the TriRex may be disengaged from the substrate. Use caution when
disengaging the unit, keep hands and feet clear of moving parts and pinch points. In some cases, the Engage-
ment Arm may become wedged into the substrate. Disengage the Locking Mechanism by pulling up on the
Locking Mechanism handle. Use a wooden or metal beam to apply leverage against the underside of the
Engagement Arm to disengage the rake and/or talon from the substrate.
12.6 Remove the unit from fall arrest service by appropriate lock out/tag out procedures until the Pivot Point has
been replaced.
12.7 If no damage has occurred to the unit as a result of the fall, the unit may be used in fall restraint only until Pivot
Point is replaced.
