Cleaning and Storage
Basic care of all Miller Fall Protection equipment will prolong the life of the unit and will contribute toward the performance of
its vital safety function. Proper storage and maintenance after use are as important as cleansing the equipment of dirt, cor-
rosives, or contaminants. Clean system components using a cloth dampened with water and mild soap or detergent and towel
dry. Store components, such as the shuttle, in an area that is clean, dry and free of exposure to fumes or corrosive elements.
Servicing
Servicing must only be carried out by a qualified person. A record log of all servicing and inspection dates for this system
should be maintained.
This system and all components must be withdrawn from service if subjected to fall arresting
forces.
Only original Miller Fall Protection replacement parts are approved for use in this system.
7.0 Training
8.0 Inspection and Maintenance
It is the responsibility of the user and the purchaser of this equipment to assure they are familiar with these instructions and
are trained in the proper use, installation, operation, maintenance and limitations of this product. Training should be conducted
periodically and without exposing the trainee to a fall hazard.
Training is an integral part of our Total Solution in fall protection, since no fall protection equipment – regardless of how ef-
fective – can save an employee who is not trained in its use. To meet this crucial requirement, Miller Training provides the
knowledge and skills necessary to achieve a safe, more productive work environment.
Inspection
The Xenon Horizontal Lifeline Kit is designed for today’s rugged work environments. To maintain its service life and high
performance, all components should be inspected frequently. Visually inspect before each use. Regular inspection by a
competent person for wear, damage or corrosion should be a part of your safety program.
Replace equipment if any of the
defective conditions explained in this manual are found.
Before each use, visually and functionally inspect for the following:
Inspect all components for physical damages, deformation, cracks, wear and corrosion.
•
Inspect for crimped fittings, cracks or any signs of loading.
•
Inspect the cable lifeline for cuts, frays, kinks, broken strands or other signs of unusual wearing patterns.
•
[CAUTION: Always wear gloves when inspecting wire rope!]
Inspect for malfunctioning or missing components.
•
Check cable tension per section 4.4 Tensioning Horizontal Lifeline.
•
Inspect shock absorber to ensure that the red label "STOP" fall indicator is not exposed.
•
Inspect Xenon shuttle for physical damages, deformation, cracks, wear and corrosion.
•
Ensure that the shuttle and its parts are functioning properly. The attachment ring should
move freely, the button should depress and release to its original position, and the cable
channel jaws must close and lock. Refer to section 5.0 Operation/Use of Xenon Shuttle.
