WARNING: The manufacturer and the seller decline any responsibility in case of incorrect use, improper application or modifications/ reparations by persons not authorized by FALL SAFE®. Check images in the “Donning and Setup” to the correct way to put on the harness. The full-body harness is the only acceptable body retaining device that can be used in a fall arrest system. The fall arrest harness should only be used as personal fall arrest system in accordance with EN363, as fall arrest system, restraint system, works positioning system, rescue system with the following tested and approved components: height safety devices in accordance with EN360; travelling fall arrest devices on moveable guides in accordance with EN353-2; lanyards with strap fall breaks in accordance with EN354/EN1496; lanyard in accordance with EN354; Karabiners in accordance with EN362. The anchorage point on which the protective equipment must be located above the user if possible and must satisfy the requirements specified in EN795 (minimum strength of 12kN). The dorsal/ chest D-rings or The dorsal/ chest webbing loops (“A” points or 1/2 + 1/2 A points) must be connected to a fall arrest system that meets current standards. Use only “A” attachment point for fall arrest system connection, for example a mobile fall arrest, an energy absorber. In a fall event, the fall arrest attachment pint elongates approximately 0.5 m. This elongation must be taken into account for the clearance calculation. When is available, the ventral and the side attachment points on the work belt were design to either hold the user in work position, or to restrain the user from entering a hazard zone.
ATTENTION: The side attachment point does not design for fall arrest usage. Always use the two side attachment points together, by linking them with a work positioning lanyard, in order to be comfortably supported by the comfort pad of the work belt.
WARNING: the waist belt is not suitable for fall arrest purposes and that a waist belt should not be used if there is a foreseeable risk of the user becoming suspended or being exposed to unintended tension by the waist belt. Warning: using a work positioning system it is essential to consider the need of using a back-up, e.g., a fall arrest system.
WARNING: for work positioning, it is essential for safety to use an anchor point positioned at above waist level. For adjusting the work positioning lanyards, you must attach the connector of the end of the lanyards to the positioning side D-ring of your harness. Pass the rope through a reliable anchor point EN795. Attach the connector on the other lanyard end to the positioning D-ring. You can attach the positioning lanyard to a ring anchor point.
WARNING: The rope must be taut to prevent accidents. Never connect the lanyards directly to a structure (cable, bar, etc.) having a slope greater than 15° because the fall length may then exceed 0.6 m.
WARNING: karabiners must always be used with the gate closed and locked. Systematically verify that the gate it’s securely locked by pressing it with your hand. Avoid contact with sharp or abrasive surfaces and objects. According to EN358, please note, it is essential to regularly check fastening and adjustment elements during use. ATTENTION: the waist belt, it’s approved for a user including tools and equipment with a weight of up to 140 kg.
ATTENTION: a sit harness is not suitable for fall arrest purposes. Attachment points of the sit harness (figure 1) can be used for restriction or work positioning. For work positioning (1), attach the work positioning lanyard connector to the work positioning ring on the sit harness, pass the rope through a safe spot; make sure that the lanyard is taut and attach to the other side ring. For restriction (2), attach the connector on the other lanyard extremity to the positioning D-ring and attach the positioning lanyard to a fixed anchor point.
