INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE BY TYPE

  • Before using any Shock-Absorbing Lanyard, read and understand instructions, warnings and labels for each component of your PFAS and inspect each component, including this SAL, prior to use and in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. Don and properly adjust your Full Body Harness.
  • Select the appropriate Shock Absorbing Lanyard for your application, based on the conditions on your job site and the specific fall hazards that you will encounter. If you are unsure as to which SAL or SAL s may be correct for your application or applications, seek the assistance of a competent person or contact KwikSafety for assistance.

Warning : Shock Absorbing Lanyards should only be attached to the back D-ring of your Full Body Harness. Never attach a SAL to side or hip D-rings, shoulder D-rings or to front or chest D-rings. This may result in serious injury or death.

  1. Attach the SAL to the back D-ring of your Full Body Harness by depressing the keeper and opening the gate on the double-locking snap hook at the attachment end. Connect the hook to the D-ring and release the gate and keeper. Ensure the gate closes and locks and that the D-ring is fully engaged by the snap hook.
  2. Attach the Anchorage-End Connector of your SAL to one of the lanyard keepers on either end of the chest strap of your Full Body Harness. Never attach the Anchorage-End Connector to any other point on your Full Body Harness: Serious injury or death could result.
  3. Proceed to your work location. If you are working in the vicinity of a fall hazard, calculate possible swing fall hazards, total fall distance, and required clearance distance. If you have a swing-fall hazard or do not have the required clearance distance, STOP and reevaluate your application and system. Your work location should never exceed an angle of 15 degrees in any direction in relation to your SAL’s anchorage location.
  4. Inspect your anchorage connector and ensure it is installed in accor-dance with the manufacturer’s instructions, and so as to allow no more than six feet of free fall (the anchorage connector should be at or above the level of your back D-ring on your Full Body Harness.
  5. Attach your SAL’s Anchorage-End Connector to your anchorage. Ensure that the gate on the anchorage-end connector closes and latches automatically and securely.
  6. SAL’s with rebar hooks may be attached to properly-rated structural members such as pipes and scaffolding, provided they are horizontal relative to the walking/working surface and that the rebar hook will be unable to slide off the end of the member. Never attach to a diagonal or vertical structural member or any anchor point where the rebar hook may slide off in the event of a fall.
  7. You are now tied-off and protected by your SAL. Proceed with your work, moving carefully and deliberately while being aware of slipping, tripping and snagging hazards. Be aware that the SAL is only six feet long, and any of these may cause you to loose your footing, resulting in a possible fall.
  8. When proceeding to another work location, and not tied off to an anchor point, the anchorage end or ends of your SAL should be attached to the lanyard keepers on or adjacent to the chest strap of your full body harness. Never attach the anchorage end or ends to any other point on your harness, as this could result in serious injury or death.

Dual-Leg or “Y”-Leg Lanyards and 100% Tie-Off
KwikSafety manufactures a wide variety of Dual-Leg or “Y”-Leg Shock-Ab-sorbing Lanyards. These are intended to be used for 100% Tie-Off, allowing the user to transition from one anchorage to another while being continuously tied-off. They are also exceptionally useful in Tower and Positioning applications as a back-up fall arrest connecting device, allow-ing the user to ascend and descend between work positions while always remaining tied-off.

  1. Attach your “Y”-Leg SAL to the back D-ring of your Full Body Harness by depressing the keeper and opening the gate on the double-locking snap hook at the attachment end. Connect the hook to the D-ring and release the gate and keeper. Ensure the gate closes and locks and that the D-ring is fully engaged by the snap hook. The Attachment-End Con-nector is always adjacent to the shock-absorber element, and joins the two legs of the lanyards together. Never attempt to attach either Anchor-age-End Connector to the back D-ring of your FBH. Never attempt to attach multiple users to a “Y”-Leg SAL. Never attempt to extend your reach by using a “Y”-Leg SAL as a “12-foot lanyard”: Any of these arrangements could result in serious injury or death. See Figures below.
  2. Attach the Anchorage-End Connectors of your “Y-Leg SAL to the lanyard keepers on either end of the chest strap of your Full Body Harness. Never attach the Anchorage-End Connectors to any other point on your Full Body Harness: Serious injury or death could result.
  3. Proceed to your work location. If you are working in the vicinity of a fall hazard, calculate possible swing fall hazards, total fall distance, and required clearance distance. If you have a swing-fall hazard or do not have the required clearance distance, STOP and reevaluate your application and system. Your work location should never exceed an angle of 15 degrees in any direction in relation to your SAL’s anchorage location or locations.
  4. Inspect your anchorage connectors(s) and ensure installation is in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, and so as to allow no more than six feet of free fall (the anchorage connector should be at or above the level of your back D-ring on your Full Body Harness.
  5. Attach the Anchorage-End Connector from one leg of your SAL to your anchorage, leaving the other leg attached to the lanyard keeper on your FBH. Ensure that the gate on the anchorage-end connector closes and latches automatically and securely.
  6. “Y”-Leg SAL’s with rebar hooks may be attached to properly-rated structural members such as pipes and scaffolding, provided they are horizontal relative to the walking/working surface and that the rebar hook will be unable to slide off the end of the member. Never attach to a diagonal or vertical structural member or any anchor point where the rebar hook may slide off in the event of a fall.
  7. You are now tied-off and protected by your SAL. Proceed with your work, moving carefully and deliberately while being aware of slipping, tripping and snagging hazards. Be aware that the SAL is only six feet long, and any of these may cause you to loose your footing, resulting in a possible fall.
  8. When transitioning from one anchorage to another, remain tied-off to the first anchorage. Attach the Anchorage-End Connector from the free leg of your “Y”-Leg SAL to the next anchorage.
  9. Once tied-off to your second anchorage, disconnect from the first and attach the free leg of your “Y”-Leg SAL to the lanyard keeper on your FBH and proceed with your work.

ANCHORAGE CONSIDERATIONS

  • The anchorage to which this SAL is attached must capable of sustaining static loads in directions applied by the personal fall arrest system of at least 3,600 lbs (or at least twice the expected dynamic load) with certifica-tion of a qualified person (architect, structural engineer, etc.), or 5,000 lbs in the absence of certification. If multiple personal fall arrest systems are being attached to the same anchorage, the minimum values stated above must be multiplied by the number of users.
  • Ensure that the anchorage connector that you are using is compatible with the anchor point to which you are attaching it. If you are using this SAL with a Horizontal Lifeline, tripod or davit, ensure that it is compatible with these systems by checking the manufacturer’s instructions for these systems for the minimum performance requirements of deceleration devices.
  • Be sure that your anchorage is mounted overhead or above the level of the back d-ring of your full body harness. Be sure to calculate your clear-fall and to avoid swing fall hazards. Ensure the fall path is clear of obstructions and impalement hazards.

EMPLOYER AND USER TRAINING

Special notes for the Employer

  • As an employer, you may be obliged to provide Personal Protective Equipment (to include Personal Fall Arrest and Fall Protection Equipment) along with an appropriate amount of training to your employees so that they will be adequately prepared to use this equipment in the course of their work. Another important resource for employers is the Consensus standard on Managed Fall Protection: ANSI Z359.13-2013.
  • Equally important is the subject of product/equipment selection. If you are obliged to provide fall protection equipment for your employees, be sure to consult with or appoint a competent or qualified person to select and prescribe equipment that is suitable to address the specific hazards which may be present on your job-site or in your facility. There are different products for different applications, and under many circumstances these products are not interchangeable. If you have questions as to whether this product is suitable for your application, please contact KwikSafety for assistance.
  • It is important to note that improper use of fall arrest equipment can be just as dangerous as not using it at all. Failure to adequately train and supervise your employees may result in serious injury or death. It is critical to have a training program supported by documentation, refresher/remedi-al training and to establish best practices where the employment of all PPE is concerned.

User Training
It is the responsibility of the user of this equipment to read and fully understand these instructions before employing this product as part of a Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS). Every user of fall protection should be provided a four to eight hour course of instruction for the Authorized User. Training must also be provided in the use of each component of the user’s PFAS and in the recognition of fall hazards. During the course of this training, the user may not be exposed to a fall hazard.

FALL PROTECTION PLAN

The best way to address a fall hazard is to eliminate it entirely or to employ a passive system to restrict access to the hazard (i.e. guardrails, netting, covers, etc.) Fall arrest products are the last line of defense in the hierar- chy of fall protection, and should be used as a last resort by employees who have been thoroughly trained. The accepted fall protection hierarchy is as follows:

  • Eliminate the fall hazard.
  • Passive fall protection (guardrails, safety nets, barriers, etc.)
  • Fall Restraint (prevent the worker from having access to the fall hazard by using a fixed lanyard which is short enough to restrict access to the hazard).
  • Fall Arrest (utilizing Personal Fall Arrest Systems)
  • Administrative Controls (use of warning lines, controlled access zones or monitors).

The Fall Protection Plan
As a minimum, a fall protection plan should identify and/or address the following points:

  • Any and all fall hazards which may exist on your job-site or in your facility.
  • Steps that have been taken to eliminate each fall hazard.
  • Equipment that has been or will be employed to address each fall hazard.
  • Provisions for 100% continuous fall protection in the vicinity of all fall hazards.
  • Training procedures for all authorized persons.
  • Identification of acceptable anchorages for positioning, restraint and fall arrest.
  • Clear-fall requirements.
  • Use and egress from the system.
  • Limitations on use of the system (maximum Free-fall, arrest force and maximum number and permitted locations of authorized persons who may use the system).
  • Procedures for installation, use and removal of the system.
  • Detailed instructions for inspection of systems and system components to include rejection criteria and replacement procedures.
  • A detailed plan and procedures for the rescue of a worker who may be involved in a fall event.

Rescue Plan
The rescue plan should include detailed procedures for summoning a professional rescue agency (such as the local fire department) and/or for performing self-rescue or in-house rescue.
For detailed assistance in formulating and maintaining an effective rescue plan, see ANSI Z359.13-2013.

MAINTENANCE, SERVICE AND STORAGE

  • Clean the polyester lanyard with a warm water and mild detergent solution. Wipe the wire rope lanyard with a clean dry cloth.
  • DO NOT use bleach or bleach solutions. Dry hardware with a clean, dry cloth, and hang to air dry. DO NOT use a power washer or dry with heat in a laundry dryer.
  • DO NOT attempt to disassemble the unit. A buildup of dirt, solvents, paint, etc. may prevent the lanyard from working properly, and in severe cases degrade the webbing. If you have questions concerning the condition of your lanyard, remove it from service and contact KwikSafety. Store lanyards in a cool, dry, clean environment out of direct sunlight. Avoid areas where heat, oil, chemicals or their vapors may exist. Thoroughly inspect the lanyard after extended storage.

INSPECTION

Mandatory Inspection: ANSI Z359 requires that fall protection equipment be inspected by a competent person other than the user at least once every six months. Harsh conditions may accelerate wear and corrosion and require more frequent inspections.

Inspection Procedure: Inspect all webbing (straps) and stitching for:

  • Pulled or broken threads
  • Cuts and fraying
  • Abrasion
  • Excessive wear
  • Burns, heat and chemical degradation

Broken stitches or separation of webbing inside the lanyard could indicate that the lanyard is damaged and must be removed from service.

Inspect all metallic hardware (snap hooks, carabiners, rebar hooks, adjuster buckles, etc.) for:

  1. Deformation
  2. Fractures, cracks,pitting
  3. Corrosion
  4. Burrs, sharp edges, cuts, deep nicks
  5. Missing or loose parts
  6. Improper function
  7. Evidence of excessive heat, chemical, or electrical exposures

Ensure snap hook gates are close and lock. All labels should be present and fully legible. Punch or mark the inspection label. Record the results of the inspection on the Inspection Record. If inspection reveals a defective condition or improper maintenance, remove the unit from service immediately.
IMPORTANT : Only KwikSafety or parties authorized in writing may make repairs to this equipment. And require that the authorized person be provided a rescue plan and appropriate training before using the equipment where suspension could occur.

FALL INFORMATION

Free-Fall

Free-Fall is the distance that a worker will fall before the connecting device or deceleration device elements of the PFAS will begin to engage during a fall event. KwikSafety allows a maximum Free-Fall Distance of 6’ (6 feet) when rigging a Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS). In some cases, exceptions may be allowed when there is no practical way to limit the Free-Fall Distance to 6’, such as a job-site where no overhead anchor-point is available. Tying off in a manner that would create a Free-Fall greater than 6’ should always be a last resort. If you are rigging a system that allows more than 6’ of Free-Fall, make sure your Connecting Device/Deceleration Device is rated for this application.

Clear-Fall

  • Clear-Fall or Clear-Fall Distance is the distance that is required to safely arrest the fall of a user. When working at heights and using a PFAS, it is important to consider the distance between the walking/working level and the next lower level to ensure that the components selected are capable of arresting the user’s fall before they hit the next lower level. The required Clear-Fall Distance can easily be calculated by adding together the
  • Free-Fall Distance, the Deceleration Distance, the height of the user plus a safety factor of 2 feet. The formula for calculating Clear-Fall Distance is shown below:
  • Free-Fall Distance + Deceleration Distance + Height of Worker + Safety Factor = Clear-Fall Distance
  • It is also necessary to consider the fall path when determining the Clear-Fall limitations in your application. Ensure the fall path is clear of obstructions, protrusions, equipment or materials that may be a hazard in the event of a fall. Pay special attention to those items which may present an impalement hazard. Obstructions in the fall path may be just as hazardous as the fall itself, and your PFAS may not be able to protect you from these hazards. Failure to clear the fall path may result in serious injury or death.
  • Rig your PFAS with extreme caution, and be aware of all of the factors that may come into play in the event of a fall.
