• Total Static Loading: 41 lbs. x 1.2 (Safety Factor) = 49.2 lbs. (21.3 kg)

Installation of the Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System must be supervised by a Qualified Person.

Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System Connection Requirements: The Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System is used as the anchorage component of a PFAS to protect the user in the event of a fall. PFAS must use a self-retracting lifeline that limits the maximum arrest force to 1,800 lbs. per applicable OSHA regulations.The Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System must be attached to a minimum of three rungs of a fixed ladder. Each rung must be 1/2” to 1-1/4” diameter, with a minimum breaking strength of 1,200 lbs. The structure to which the fixed ladder is attached to, and the connections between the fixed ladder and structure, must be able to withstand a load of 3,600 lbs in all directions permitted by the system. The ladder must not have a pitch greater than 90 degrees from horizontal. If the ladder pitch is greater than 90 degrees, the system may not be used. When installed in a transition area from ladder to a platform, roof top, etc., the system must extend above the platform high enough for the snap hook of the SRL to be 5’ above the platform. This is to ensure overhead tie-off is maintained when standing on the platform. No free fall is permitted with the Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System.

FALL PROTECTION AND RESCUE PLAN

When using this equipment, employers must create and maintain a Fall Protection and Rescue Plan and provide the means to implement those plans. The plans must be communicated to equipment users, authorized persons, and rescuers. These plans must meet ANSI Z359.2 “Minimum Requirements for a Comprehensive Managed Fall Protection Program.” They should include the requirements and guidelines for the employer’s managed Fall Protection Program. This would include eliminating and controlling fall hazards, duties and training, policies, fall protection procedures, rescue procedures, incident investigations, and evaluation of the program’s effectiveness.

NORMAL OPERATIONS
When used with an ANSI compliant SRL, the system allows the user to move freely up and down the fixed ladder while providing protection in the event of a fall. Connectors used with the SRL Anchor Ladder System must meet the requirements of ANSI Z359.12.

COMPATIBILITY OF COMPONENTS

Unless otherwise noted, Safewaze equipment is designed for, and tested with, associated Safewaze components or systems.

IMPORTANT: If substitutions or replacements are made to the system, ensure all components meet the applicable ANSI requirements. Read and follow manufacturer’s instructions for all components and subsystems in your personal fall arrest system. Not following this guidance may jeopardize compatibility of equipment, and possibly affect the safety and reliability of the overall system.

COMPATIBILITY OF CONNECTORS

Connectors are compatible with connecting elements when they have been designed to work together in such a way that their sizes and shapes do not cause their gate mechanisms to inadvertently open, regardless of how they become oriented. Connectors (hooks, carabiners, and D-rings) must be capable of supporting at least 5,000 lbs. (2267.9 kg). Connectors must be compatible with the anchorage or other system components (Figure 4). Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Non-compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage. Connectors must be compatible in size, shape, and strength. Self- locking snap hooks and carabiners are required by ANSI Z359 and OSHA guidelines. Contact Safewaze if you have any questions about compatibility.

NOTE: Some specialty connectors have additional requirements. Contact Safewaze with questions.

Using a connector that is undersized or irregular in shape (1) to connect a snap hook or carabiner could allow the connector to force open the gate of the snap hook or carabiner. When force is applied, the gate of the hook or carabiner presses against the non-compliant part (2) and forces open the gate (3). This allows the snap hook or carabiner to disengage (4) from the connection point.

MAKING CONNECTIONS

Snap hooks and carabiners used with this equipment must be double locking. Ensure all connections are compatible in size, shape, and strength. Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Ensure all connectors are fully closed and locked.

Safewaze connectors (snap hooks and carabiners) are designed to be used only as specified in each product’s user’s instructions. See Figure 5 for examples of inappropriate connections. Do not connect snap hooks and carabiners:

• To a D-ring to which another connector is attached.
• In a manner that would result in a load on the gate (with the exception of Tie-Back hooks). NOTE: Large snap hooks must not be connected to objects which will result in a load on the gate if the hook twists or rotates, unless the snap hook complies with ANSI Z359.12 and is equipped with a 3,600 lbs. (1632.9 kg) gate. Check the marking on your snap hook to verify its compatibility.
• In a false engagement, where features that protrude from the snap hook or carabiner catch on the anchor, and without visual confirmation seems to be fully engaged to the anchor point.
• To each other.
• By wrapping the lifeline around an anchor and securing to lifeline except as allowed for Tie-Back models
• To any object which is shaped or sized in a way that the snap hook or carabiner will not close and lock, or that roll-out could occur.
• In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under load.

INSTALLATION AND USE

Damaged or deteriorated components must be immediately removed from service in accordance with the requirements of OSHA 1926.502. Inspect all components of the system prior to beginning installation to ensure no damage occurred during shipping. In the event any damage is discovered during the pre-installation inspection, contact Safewaze for replacement guidance.
Prior to installation of the Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System, a Qualified Person should determine that the structure is capable of meeting the load requirements of the system. Ensure that the system is positioned to allow users safe access when connecting or disconnecting from the system. As a general rule, the system is centered on the climbing structure to allow for ease of climbing. However, the system may be installed towards either side of the ladder rungs if necessary.
The Safewaze Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System is designed for easy installation onto a variety of suitable structures.

Installation Steps:

Step 1: Line up the pre-drilled holes on the post with the top rung of the climbing structure. Slide the U-bolt over the back of the rung and through the two pre-drilled holes in the post. Thread nuts onto the U-Bolts and torque to 20-25 ft. lbs. The post includes pre-cut slots for adjustment to align the middle and lower U-bolts with their corresponding rungs. Position the middle and lower U-bolts on the rungs, install the nuts onto the U-bolts, and torque to 20-25 ft. lbs. (Figure 6).

Step 2: Connect an SRL to the SRL Anchor Ladder System. If intention is to leave the SRL in place for an extended time period, it is required to use a “tagline” rather than leaving the lifeline extended outside the housing. Leaving the lifeline extended places unnecessary wear on the internal components of the SRL and leaves the lifeline prone to unnecessary corrosion (Figure 6).

The Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System can be installed to either the “front” of the ladder rungs, or to the “back” of the rungs (Figure 7). The system must always be installed to the top three rungs of a fixed ladder. The system should be located in the middle of the fixed ladder but may be positioned left or right of center if necessary (Figure 8).

Figure 9 illustrates typical Adjustable SRL Anchor Ladder System connections when used as part of a complete Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS). When using a snap hook to make a connection, ensure roll-out cannot occur (Figure 4). Do not use snap hooks or carabiners that will not completely close over the anchor point.

The position of the captive eye can be adjusted based upon the type of FBH the user is wearing. For connection to the Sternal/Front D-ring of a FBH, adjust the captive eye to the 8” position (Figure 9). For connection to the Dorsal D-ring of a FBH, adjust the captive eye to the 13” position (Figure 9). To change the position of the captive eye, loosen the captive eye nut and slide the captive eye out to the required location (Figure 9). Torque the captive eye nut to 10-15 ft. lbs.

Note: The 8” and 13” positions for the captive eye are measured from the back of the base post to the center of the captive eye.
