PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Figure 1 illustrates the 3M™ DBI-SALA® EZ-Line™ Horizontal Lifeline (HLL)
system. The HLL System is secured between two anchorage points and provides
connections for up to two users as part of a Fall Arrest or Restraint system.
Figure 2 illustrates components of the EZ-Line Horizontal Lifeline. The
Lifeline (A) extends from the Housing (B) and serves as the body of the EZ-
Line Horizontal Lifeline. Carabiners (D) on either end of the device secure
the Horizontal Lifeline between two anchorage connection points. The Output
Shafts (E) serve as separate locations for the Crank Handle (C) to be
inserted, which controls extension, retraction, and tensioning of the
Lifeline.
After the system is installed, the Attachment O-Rings (G) serve as anchorage
connection points through which the user may connect to the system. The
Attachment O-Rings enable the user to work along the length of the Horizontal
Lifeline. The Impact Indicator (F) enables the user to verify that the system
has not experienced a fall arrest (or other force of equivalent or greater
strength) during use. If the Impact Indicator is activated, then the user
should remove the system from service immediately.
See Table 1 for more information on Component Specifications.
Prior to installation and use of this equipment, record the product identification information from the ID label in the Inspection and Maintenance Log (Table 2) at the back of this manual.

PRODUCT APPLICATION
1.1 PURPOSE: Horizontal Lifeline (HLL) Anchorage Systems provide multiple
anchorage connection points for Fall Arrest and Restraint systems along the
entire length of the lifeline. They use a flexible anchor line installed
between two anchorage connectors, and are equipped with one or more energy
absorbent to limit forces on the system and absorb energy in a fall arrest.
1.2 STANDARDS: Your product conforms to the national or regional
standards identified on the front cover of these instructions. If this product
is resold outside the original country of destination, the re-seller must
provide these instructions in the language of the country in which the product
will be used.
1.3 SUPERVISION: Horizontal Lifeline systems must be installed and used
under the supervision of a Qualified Person.
1.4 TRAINING: This product must be installed and used by persons trained
in its correct application. These instructions are to be used as part of an
employee training program as required by national, regional, or local
standards. It is the responsibility of the users and installers of this
equipment to ensure they are familiar with these instructions, trained in the
correct care and use of this equipment, and are aware of the operating
characteristics, application limitations, and consequences of improper use of
this equipment.
1.5 RESCUE PLAN: When using this equipment and connecting subsystems, the
employer must have a written rescue plan and the means to implement and
communicate that plan to users, authorized persons, and rescuers. A trained,
onsite rescue team is recommended. Team members should be provided with the
equipment and techniques necessary to perform a successful rescue. Training
should be provided on a periodic basis to ensure rescuer proficiency. Rescuers
should be provided with these instructions. There should be visual contact or
means of communication with the person being rescued at all times during the
rescue process.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
2.1 ANCHORAGE: Anchorage requirements vary with the Fall Protection
application. The mounting structure on which the equipment is placed must meet
the Anchorage specifications defined in Table 1.
2.2 CAPACITY: The user capacity of a complete Fall Protection system is
limited by its lowest-rated maximum capacity component. For example, if your
connecting subsystem has a capacity that is less than your harness, you must
comply with the capacity requirements of your connecting subsystem. See the
manufacturer instructions for each component of your system for capacity
requirements.
2.3 CONNECTING SUBSYSTEMS: Connecting subsystems (self-retracting
devices, energy-absorbing lanyards, lifeline subsystems, etc.) must be
suitable for your application. Refer to the subsystem manufacturer
instructions for additional information.
2.4 ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS: Use of this equipment in areas with
environmental hazards may require additional precautions to prevent injury to
the user or damage to the equipment. Hazards may include, but are not limited
to: high heat, chemicals, corrosive environments, high voltage power lines,
explosive or toxic gases, moving machinery, sharp edges, or overhead materials
that may fall and contact the user or equipment. Contact 3M Technical Services
for further clarification.
2.5 LIFELINE HAZARDS: Ensure the lifeline is kept free from all hazards
including, but not limited to: entanglement with users, other workers, moving
machinery, other surrounding objects, or impact from overhead objects that
could fall onto the lifeline or users.
2.6 COMPONENT COMPATIBILITY: 3M equipment is designed for use with 3M-
approved components and subsystems only. Substitutions or replacements made
with non-approved components or subsystems may jeopardize compatibility of
equipment and may affect the safety and reliability of the complete system.
2.7 CONNECTOR COMPATIBILITY: Connectors are compatible with connecting
elements when the size and shape of either component does not cause the
connector to inadvertently open, regardless of orientation. Connectors must
comply with applicable standards. Connectors must be fully closed and locked
during use.
3M Connectors (snap hooks and carabiners) are designed to be used only as
specified in each instruction manual. Ensure connectors are compatible with
the system components to which they are connected. Do not use equipment that
is non compatible. Use of non-compatible components may cause the connector to
unintentionally disengage (see Figure 3). If the connecting element to which a
connector attaches is undersized or irregular in shape, a situation could
occur where the connecting element applies a force to the gate of the
connector (A). This force could then cause the gate to open (B), disengaging
the connector from the connecting element (C).
2.8 MAKING CONNECTIONS: All connections must be compatible in size,
shape, and strength. See Figure 4 for examples of inappropriate connections.
Do not attach snap hooks and carabiners:
A. To a D-Ring to which another connector is attached.
B. In a manner that would result in a load on the gate. Large-throat snap
hooks should not be connected to standardize D-Rings or other connecting
elements, unless the snap hook has a gate strength of 16 kN (3,600 lbf) or
greater.
C. In a false engagement, where size or shape of the connector or connecting
element is not compatible and, without visual confirmation, would seem to be
fully engaged.
D. To each other.
E. Directly to webbing or rope lanyard or tie-back material, unless the
instruction manuals for both the lanyard and connector specifically allow such
a connection.
F. To any object whose size or shape does not allow the connector to fully
close and lock, or that could cause connector roll-out.
G. In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under
load.
INSTALLATION
3.1 OVERVIEW: Installing a Horizontal Lifeline (HLL) System is a multi- step procedure that requires planning and awareness of the worksite. In summary, the basic procedure for installing the HLL System is as follows:
- Prepare the anchorage connection points for the system.
- Connect the HLL System between the two anchorage connection points.
- Secure the connecting subsystem to the HLL System.
System installation will have a significant impact on fall clearance
requirements. If the system is not prepared with fall clearance requirements
in mind, then it may be necessary to impose limits on system use.
3.2 PLANNING: Plan your Fall Protection system before starting your work.
Account for all factors that may affect your safety before, during, and after
a fall. Consider all requirements and limitations specified in these
instructions.
A. ANCHORAGE PLACEMENT: The anchorage connection points used by the system
must be prepared before the HLL System can be installed. This may mean
securing anchorage connectors to the anchorage structure or even preparing the
anchorage structure itself beforehand. Both anchorage connection points must
be set at approximately the same elevation level, such that the HLL System has
a slope of 5 degrees (5°) or less.
It is recommended that anchorages are prepared for overhead positioning of the
HLL System, since overhead positioning will help minimize fall clearance
requirements.
Whenever possible, design the system for Restraint applications rather than
Fall Arrest.
B. CONNECTING SUBSYSTEM: Users of the HLL System may connect Energy-Absorbing
Lanyards and Self-Retracting Devices (SRDs) to the system. All connecting
subsystems used must meet all requirements specified in Table 1 and be
approved for use with HLL systems. Fall clearance requirements will vary with
the connecting subsystem used.
All connecting subsystems used should be kept as short as possible. This
applies to both overall length of the subsystem and its extended length during
use. Longer energy-absorbing lanyards will experience greater free fall and
require more fall clearance. SRDs with greater overall length will weigh more
and place more stress upon the system.
Ensure all requirements of your connecting subsystem are met before using the
system. For more information, refer to the manufacturer instructions of your
connecting subsystem.
3.3 SWING FALLS: Swing Falls occur when the anchorage point is not
directly above the point where a fall occurs. The force of striking an object
in a swing fall may cause serious injury or death. Do not permit a swing fall
if injury could occur. Minimize swing falls by working as directly below the
anchorage point as possible. See Figure 5 for reference. The Required Fall
Clearance (FC) of the user increases as User Work Radius (W) increases, since
the total fall distance will be greater than if the user had fallen directly
below the anchorage point.
3.4 SHARP EDGES: The HLL System must always be installed so that the
horizontal lifeline does not come into contact with sharp edges or abrasive
surfaces during use. All sharp edges and abrasive surfaces within reach of the
system should be covered with protective material (A). See Figure 6 for
reference.
If it is not feasible to cover the sharp edge or abrasive surface, then a
minimum setback distance must be maintained from the unprotected edge or
surface. Additionally, connecting subsystems used with the HLL must be rated
for Leading Edge applications. To prevent cutting action during a swing fall,
the user must stay within 30 degrees perpendicular of the HLL System during
use. Minimum setback distance requirements are listed according to system span
in the table below.
System Span (B)| Minimum Setback Distance| System Span (B)|
Minimum Setback Distance
---|---|---|---
≤ 10 ft. (3.05 m)| 4 ft. 0 in. (1.22 m)| ≤ 40 ft. (12.19 m)| 8 ft. 11 in.
(2.72 m)
≤ 20 ft. (6.10 m)| 5 ft. 6 in. (1.68 m)| ≤ 50 ft. (15.24 m)| 10 ft. 8 in.
(3.25 m)
≤ 30 ft. (9.14 m)| 7 ft. 2 in. (2.18 m)| ≤ 60 ft. (18.29 m)| 12 ft. 5 in.
(3.78 m)
3.5 SELECTING A CLEARANCE CHART: Users should begin by selecting their
connecting subsystem type. The user should then follow the instructions
specific to that connecting subsystem to determine what fall clearance chart
to use.
All Required Fall Clearance values in these instructions include a safety
factor of 2 ft. (0.6 m) plus an additional 10-percent of HLL deflection. 1 ft.
(0.3 m) of additional fall clearance is included for harness stretch and
D-ring slide.
All Required Fall Clearance values in these instructions were calculated using
the maximum free fall distances stated in Table 1. Greater free fall distances
will require more fall clearance.
When using connecting subsystems made by a different manufacturer, 1 ft. (0.3
m) of additional fall clearance must be added to the values in the fall
clearance charts to account for unknown variation in product performance.
3.6 FALL CLEARANCE FOR ENERGY-ABSORBING LANYARDS: Fall clearance is the
measure of distance between a user and the next obstruction below them.
Required Fall Clearance (FC) is the amount of fall clearance needed to safely
arrest the user during a fall event. Fall clearance is always measured from
the top of the working platform to the top of the next obstruction below. To
determine Required Fall Clearance for energy-absorbing lanyards, refer to the
following sections:
A. FREE FALL DISTANCE: The user should determine how much free fall is
present in their system before using the fall clearance charts. Lanyard length
and system placement (anchorage height, setback distance) are the primary
factors affecting free fall distance. When a lanyard is anchored below the
user’s D-ring, free fall distance will exceed lanyard length, up to as much as
twice the lanyard length.
Figure 7 illustrates the amount of free fall associated with common system
applications. However, the user must still verify the amount of free fall
present in their intended application.
Free fall is measured from the top of the user’s D-ring before a fall to the
top of that same D-ring when the lanyard tightens during a fall. 3M Fall
Protection shares the following method for measuring free fall in a system:
Measuring free fall distance for an HLL:
- Connect one end of the lanyard to the HLL. Extend the free end toward the edge of the working platform and let it hang over the fall hazard.
- Measure how far the hook on the free end hangs below the working platform.
- Add the initial height of the worker’s D-ring above the working platform to the measurement from Step 2. The sum of these two numbers is the free fall distance for your application.
B. FALL CLEARANCE CHARTS: See Figure 8 for reference. Required Fall
Clearance (FC) is determined by Maximum Free Fall (FF) of the system
application, HLL System Span (B), and the number of users connected to the HLL
System.
To determine Required Fall Clearance (FC) using Figure 8 for Energy-
Absorbing Lanyards:
- Identify the amount of free fall distance that could occur given the specific anchorage height, setback distance, and lanyard used in your application. Select the chart that meets or exceeds your Free Fall Distance (FF). It is recommended that free fall distance be kept to a minimum.
- Select the table column that matches your number of users. Ensure the combined weight of each user (including clothing, tools, etc.) does not exceed the maximum capacity listed.
- Find the row in the column to the far left that matches your System Span (B).
- Find the corresponding Required Fall Clearance (FC) where the column for your number of users and the row for your System Span (B) intersect.

3.7 FALL CLEARANCE FOR SELF-RETRACTING DEVICES: Fall clearance is the
measure of distance between a user and the next obstruction below them.
Required Fall Clearance (FC) is the amount of fall clearance needed to safely
arrest the user during a fall event. Fall clearance is always measured from
the top of the working platform to the top of the next obstruction below. To
determine Required Fall Clearance for Self-Retracting Devices, refer to the
following sections:
A. SETBACK DISTANCE: When calculating fall clearance with an SRD, 3M Fall
Protection defines two different application types based on the physical set-
up of the system. See Figure 11 for an illustration of Setback Distance (X)
and HLL System Height (H). The application type determines the correct fall
clearance chart to use.
SMALL SYSTEM SETBACK | LARGE SYSTEM SETBACK |
---|
Applies when:
• Setback Distance (X) is less than the Retracted Length (R) of the SRD.
– OR –
• The System Height (H) is greater than or equal to the Setback Distance
(X).
See Section 3.7.B for more information. See Figure 9 for Required Fall
Clearance.| Applies when:
• Setback Distance (X) is greater than or equal to the Retracted Length (R) of
the SRD.
– AND –
• The System Height (H) is less than the Setback Distance (X).
See Section 3.7.C for more information. See Figure 10 for Required Fall
Clearance.
B. SMALL SYSTEM SETBACK: For Small System Setback applications, Required Fall Clearance (FC) is determined by HLL System Height (H), HLL System Span (B), and the number of users connected to the HLL System. See Figure 9 for reference.
- SRDs should have a retracted length of 2.5 ft. (0.76 m) or less. For SRDs with a retracted length greater than 2.5 ft. (0.76 m), the difference in retracted length must be subtracted from the measured HLL System Height (H) before selecting the proper height range.
Example – For an SRD with a retracted length of 5 ft. (1.5 m) and an HLL System Height of 7 ft. (2.1 m):
- Difference in retracted length of the SRD = 5 ft. (1.5 m) – 2.5 ft. (0.76 m) = 2.5 ft. (0.76 m)
- HLL System Height minus the difference in retracted length = 7 ft. (2.1 m) – 2.5 ft. (0.76 m) = 4.5 ft. (1.37 m)
- Use the number from Step 2 as your HLL System Height (H) when determining Required Fall Clearance (FC). In this example, the user would use 4.5 ft. (1.37 m) for System Height (H) and select the [3 ft. – <5ft.] column in the Figure 9 charts.
To determine Required Fall Clearance (FC) using Figure 9 for SRDs:
- Select the chart that matches your number of users. Ensure the combined weight of each user (including clothing, tools, etc.) does not exceed the maximum capacity listed.
- Find the column in the chart that matches your System Height (H).
- Find the row in the column to the far left that matches your System Span (B).
- Find the corresponding Required Fall Clearance (FC) where the column for your System Height (H) and the row for your System Span (B) intersect.
C. LARGE SYSTEM SETBACK: For Large System Setback applications, Required
Fall Clearance (FC) is determined by HLL System Span (B) and the number of
users connected to the HLL System. See Figure 10 for reference.
The following guidelines must be observed for Large System Setback
applications:
- SRDs used with the HLL System must be rated for tie-off at knee-level or below.
- The Setback Distance (X) of the system must be greater than or equal to minimum requirements. Minimum Setback Distance is listed in the table below for each available System Span (B). If you are unable to meet minimum requirements, then your HLL System must be limited to one user per span.
System Span (B)| Minimum Setback Distance| | System Span (B)|
Minimum Setback Distance
---|---|---|---|---
≤ 10 ft. (3.05 m)| 4 ft. 0 in. (1.22 m)| ≤ 40 ft. (12.19 m)| 8 ft. 11 in.
(2.72 m)
≤ 20 ft. (6.10 m)| 5 ft. 6 in. (1.68 m)| ≤ 50 ft. (15.24 m)| 10 ft. 8 in.
(3.25 m)
≤ 30 ft. (9.14 m)| 7 ft. 2 in. (2.18 m)| ≤ 60 ft. (18.29 m)| 12 ft. 5 in.
(3.78 m)
To determine Required Fall Clearance (FC) using Figure 10 for SRDs:
- Find the Minimum Setback Distance for your system. Minimum Setback Distance is determined by HLL System Span (B) and is listed in the table above. If your Setback Distance (X) does not meet minimum requirements, then the HLL System must be limited to one user per span.
- Select the table column that matches your number of users. Ensure the combined weight of each user (including clothing, tools, etc.) does not exceed the maximum capacity listed.
- Find the row in the column to the far left that matches your System Span (B).
- Find the corresponding Required Fall Clearance (FC) where the column for your number of users and the row for your System Span (B) intersect.

3.8 KNEE-LEVEL TIE-OFF APPLICATIONS: If the HLL System is installed at a height of less than 3.0 ft. (0.9 m) above the working platform, then it is considered a knee-level tie-off application. The following criteria should be observed with knee-level tie-off applications:
- Connecting subsystems used with the HLL System must be rated for tie-off at knee-level or below, in addition to meeting the requirements specified in Table 1.
- Reduce the system capacity to one user per span.
This section does not apply to HLL Systems meeting “Large System Setback” application requirements for use with SRDs. For installation requirements for these systems, see Section 3.7.C.
3.9 USER CAPACITY ABOVE LIMITS: If the user’s total capacity (including
clothing, tools, etc.) exceeds 310 lb. (140 kg), adaptations can be made to
accommodate a single user of up to 420 lb. (190 kg) total capacity.
For users with a total capacity between 310 lb. – 420 lb. (140 kg – 190 kg),
the following guidelines must be observed:
- Reduce capacity to one user per span.
- Use a connecting subsystem with a maximum capacity of 420 lb. (190 kg) or greater.
- Use the two-user Required Fall Clearance values from the 310 lb. (140 kg) Fall Clearance charts, but apply instead to a single user of up to 420 lb. (190 kg) total capacity.
3.10 BEFORE INSTALLATION: Determine the location of your anchorage points
and evaluate the strength of the anchorage structure in accordance with the
anchorage requirements listed in Table 1. Determine the span length between
your anchorage points and evaluate the fall clearance requirements per your
connecting subsystem type. See Section 3.2 for more information. Do not
install the system if there is insufficient fall clearance. Shorten span
length if necessary to stay within the available fall clearance.
3.11 INSTALLING THE EZ-LINE HLL: Figure 12 illustrates installation of
the EZ-Line HLL. Whenever possible, locate the horizontal lifeline such that
the user is restrained from reaching the fall hazard. If rigging as a
Restraint system is not possible, rig the system such that the potential free
fall is minimized. To install the EZ-Line HLL:
-
Verify that the Anchorages (A) have been installed per the requirements of Section 3.2. Any anchorage connectors that are used should be installed per the manufacturer instructions.
-
Secure the HLL System between the anchorage connectors. First, secure the Connector (A) at the top of the HLL to one of the Anchorage Connectors (B). Then, press and hold down the Unlock Button (C) located atop the housing to begin extending the lifeline.
If used, Rolled Metal Energy Absorbers should be installed so that they are able to pivot freely with adjustment of the system. -
With the Unlock Button still held down, extend the lifeline of HLL System until the Connector (A) at the end of the lifeline can be secured to the second Anchorage Connector (B). When the Connector is secure, release the Unlock Button. This should cause the Button to spring back up and the lifeline to lock into place.
If the lifeline does not lock into place, remove the system from service immediately. -
Connect the Crank Handle (A) to the Top Output (B). Remove any excess slack in the lifeline by rotating the Crank Handle clockwise. The lifeline should be tension ed until a “click” is heard and there is a slight rotation of the Crank Handle. When the Crank Handle is released, it should return to its original position in line with the crank body.
For 3M Rooftop Anchor installations, the wire rope should be tension ed only enough to raise it slightly above the working surface. -
If slack is needed to make an adjustment to the system, connect the Crank Handle (A) to the Top Output (B) and rotate clockwise about 20 degrees (20°) while holding down the Unlock Button (C). Then, with the Button still held down, rotate the Crank Handle counterclockwise until there is enough slack for an adjustment.
3.12 REMOVING THE HLL SYSTEM: Figure 13 illustrates removal of the EZ- Line HLL. To remove an installed system:
- Connect the Crank Handle (A) to the Top Output (B) and rotate clockwise about 20 degrees (20°) while holding down the Unlock Button (C). Then, with the Button still held down, extend the lifeline slightly past its end anchor. After this is done, disconnect the HLL System from the anchorage connection points.
- Retract the lifeline back into the housing by connecting the Crank Handle (A) to the Bottom Output (B). Rotate counterclockwise until the lifeline is fully retracted.
3.13 CONVERSION TO A MULTIPLE-SPAN SYSTEM: To reduce the amount of fall clearance required, the EZ-Line HLL System may be converted to a multiple-span system. The below guidelines must be followed:
-
Intermediate anchorages and end anchorages must meet the loading requirements specified in Table 1.
-
A Rolled Metal Energy Absorber must be added to the end of the system opposite the winch assembly.
-
The swaged connections of the EZ-Line HLL System should not be removed or disassembled to permit passage through intermediate brackets or secured anchorage connectors. All brackets and anchorage connectors must either have large enough openings to receive the assembled system or be capable of mid-line attachment without needing to thread the cable end.
Carabiners may be attached directly to the HLL System when securing to intermediate anchors. See Section 4.3 for more information. -
Connectors and brackets used to create intermediate anchorages must allow free passage of the horizontal lifeline such that it is not held tightly or restricted from sliding along the axis of the HLL.
-
Connectors and brackets used to create intermediate anchorages must not contain sharp or abrasive edges which could come in contact with the horizontal lifeline.
-
100-percent tie-off is required when using the HLL system. If intermediate brackets and connectors do not permit the connecting subsystem to bypass, it will be necessary to use twin lanyards or twin SRDs to maintain connection to the system when moving between spans.
The maximum capacity of your system will vary depending on its application. See Table 1 for capacity requirements.
In multiple-span HLL systems designed under ANSI Z359.6 or CSA Z259.16 to permit multiple users in multiple spans, it is the responsibility of the Qualified Person (and not of 3M) to evaluate and document the design considerations and details which ensure a single event or circumstance will not cause multiple users in multiple spans to fall within a very short period of time.
USE
4.1 BEFORE EACH USE: Verify that your work area and Fall Protection
system meet all criteria defined in these instructions. Verify that a formal
Rescue Plan is in place. Inspect the product per the ‘User’ inspection points
defined on the “Inspection and Maintenance Log”. If inspection reveals an
unsafe or defective condition, or if there is any doubt about its condition
for safe use, remove the product from service immediately. Clearly tag the
product “DO NOT USE”. See Section 5 for more information.
4.2 SYSTEM APPLICATIONS: Figure 14 illustrates the system applications
for which this HLL System may be used. The HLL System may be used for either
Restraint or Fall Arrest applications. Figure 14.1 illustrates application as
a Restraint system. Figure 14.2 illustrates application as a Fall Arrest
system. Placement of the HLL System (A) is indicated, but the system should
always be installed per the requirements of these instructions and the
specifics of your work location. Whenever possible, work at or below the level
of the HLL System. To avoid swing fall hazards, do not work too far from
either side of the HLL System.
4.3 CONNECTING TO THE HLL SYSTEM: Appropriate Fall Protection equipment
must be worn when installing or connecting to the HLL System. The user’s
connecting subsystem should be secured either to one of the O-ring attachment
elements on the HLL System or directly to the HLL System itself.
All connectors used with the HLL System must meet Section 2.7 and Section 2.8
requirements. Additionally, all connectors that secure directly to the HLL
System must have a gate strength of 3,600 lbf (16 kN) or greater.
4.4 USE WITH TWO PERSONS: When one person falls while connected to the
HLL System, the system will deflect. If two persons are connected to the same
HLL System and one person falls, the second person may be pulled off the
working surface due to deflection. The risk of the second person falling
increases as the span length of the HLL System increases.
The use of independent HLL Systems for each person, or a shorter span length,
is recommended to minimize risk.
In multiple-span HLL systems designed under ANSI Z359.6 or CSA Z259.16 to
permit multiple users in multiple spans, it is the responsibility of the
Qualified Person (and not of 3M) to evaluate and document the design
considerations and details which ensure a single event or circumstance will
not cause multiple users in multiple spans to fall within a very short period
of time.
4.5 AFTER A FALL: If the product is subjected to fall arrest or impact
force, remove it from service immediately. Clearly tag it “DO NOT USE”. See

Component| Inspection Procedure| Inspection Result
Pass| Fail
EZ-Line HLL System| Inspect the screws, bolts, and nuts of the HLL System.
Ensure they are securely attached and tightened. Check to see if any bolts,
nuts, or other parts are missing, or have been substituted or altered in any
way. Inspect covers, housings, guards, etc. Ensure they are free of cracks
dents or other damage.| |
Inspect the entire system for signs of corrosion or other damage that may
affect strength or operation.| |
Inspect the wire rope for rust, corrosion, broken wires, or other obvious
faults. Wire Rope must be replaced by a 3M authorized service center if there
are six or more randomly distributed broken wires in one lay, or three or more
broken wires in one strand in one lay. A “lay” of wire rope is the length of
wire rope it takes for a strand (the larger groups of wires) to complete one
revolution or twist along the rope. Replace the wire rope assembly if there
are any broken wires within 1 in. (25 mm) of any swaged component.| |
Inspect all carabiners and connectors securing the HLL assembly to ensure they
are present and properly installed. Inspect the sleeves at the end of the
lifeline for damage such as cracks, dents or distortion.| |
Inspect the impact indicator at the end of the lifeline. If the pin is broken,
the system has been exposed to an impact force. The system must not be used
and must be removed from service. The unit must be serviced by an authorized
service center before reuse.| |
Inspect the reserve lifeline payout. The horizontal lifeline has a 4.5 ft.
(1.4 m) reserve at the end of the lifeline. If a red band attached around the
rope is visible at the housing end of the lifeline, the reserve has been
compromised. Remove the unit from service. The unit must be serviced by an
authorized service center before reuse.| |
If the system contains a Rolled Metal Energy Absorber, inspect the Roll Metal
Energy Absorber for extension or deformities. Ensure there is no tearing of
the metal between holes in the coiled section. Increase inspection frequency
if the Energy Absorber is exposed to prolonged vibration. Extended Rolled
Metal Energy Absorbents must be removed from service and destroyed or marked
for training only. Inspect securing hardware for strength and function.| |
Pull sharply on the lifeline close to the device end to ensure that the
lifeline is secured.| |
Ensure that the lifeline is under the correct tension. Do not apply extra-
tension on the lifeline during this operation unless it is necessary to ensure
the crank handle “clicks”.| |
