3.0 System Diagram of Components,
Assembly & Installation
Before installation of this equipment, carefully inspect to ensure that it is in useable
condition. Check for missing or damaged parts. Do not use if any component does not
operate properly, is missing, or appears to be damaged in any way. Refer to the inspec-
tion section of this manual.

The anchorage/structure that this system is attached to must be capable of supporting
5,000 lbs. (22.2 kN) per user attached; or be designed, installed and used, under the
VXSHUYLVLRQRIDTXDOL¿HGSHUVRQDVSDUWRIDFRPSOHWHSHUVRQDOIDOODUUHVWV\VWHPZKLFK
maintains a safety factor of at least two.
Anchorage connectors must be rated for 5,000 lbs (22.2kN) and chosen to locate lifeline
at or above the height of the D-ring on harness. Anchors and system must be installed
and used in such a manner as to minimize the potential for a swing fall hazard and limit
free fall distance to 6 feet (1.8m) or less.
PERSONAL FALL ARREST
SYSTEMS
A Honeywell-approved full-body harness
and shock-absorbing lanyard, self-retracting
lifeline/fall limiter or rope grab/vertical lifeline
with a maximum fall arrest force of 900 lbf
(4kN) must be used with this system. The
personal fall arrest system MUST limit fall
arrest forces to 900 lbf (4kN).
Use only connecting devices with compatible
locking snap hooks, auto-locking carabiners,
or other Honeywell-approved connectors.
Fall arrest systems must be rigged in
accordance to regulatory requirements. [All
instructions and warnings provided with the
components of the personal fall arrest system
must be read, understood, and followed.]
Personal fall arrest systems must be rigged
to limit a free fall to the shortest possible
distance [6 ft (1.8m) maximum].
FALL CLEARANCE & SWING FALL
Ensure that adequate clearance exists in
your fall path to avoid striking a lower level
or obstruction. The amount of fall clearance
required is dependent upon the type of
connecting device being used, number of
workers on the system, the length of the
V\VWHPDQGDVVRFLDWHGOLIHOLQHGHÀHFWLRQ
(see 6.0 Fall Clearance).
Work directly under or along side the lifeline
to avoid hazards of a swing fall. A swing
fall can occur when the anchorage point is
not located directly above the point at which
a worker falls. See 6.0 Fall Clearance for
further explanation and additional warnings
related to swing falls.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
Use of this equipment in areas where
environmental hazards exist may require
additional precautions to limit the possibility
of injury to the user or damage to the
equipment. Hazards may include, but are
not limited to high heat, caustic chemicals,
corrosive environments, high-voltage power
lines, explosive or toxic gases, moving
machinery, and sharp edges. Polyester
should be used in certain chemical or acidic
environments. Use in a corrosive or caustic
environment dictates a more frequent
inspection and servicing program to ensure
the integrity of the device is maintained. All
synthetic material must be protected from

sources. The use of heat resistant materials
is recommended in these applications. Do
not expose the equipment to any hazard
which it is not designed to withstand. Consult
the manufacturer in cases of doubt.which it
