OPERATIONAL CHECK

Before each use, carry out a visual check of the device followed by
an operational check performed by test-loading it while secured by
other means.
It is essential to assess the reliability and security of the entire
safety system you are relying on: adequate resistance of the
anchors (EN 795 or ANSI/ASSE Z359.1 or according to regulations
which apply) and the structure they are fixed on, their correct
(higher) positioning, protecting sharp edges or points of rubbing,
redundancy, etc. Any overload or dynamic loading of the device
may result in damage. Therefore, check regularly fastening and/or
adjustment elements.

Figure 2: POSITIONING
Lory RopeLine as a positioning device has two options for use.
Lateral attachment option: fasten the connector on the rope
adjustment element to one of the lateral attachment points on the
harness, then pass the lanyard around the structure, and fasten the
remaining connector to the second lateral attachment point on the
harness (fig. 2A).
Ventral attachment option: fasten the rope adjustment element to
the ventral attachment point on the harness and the remaining
connector on an anchor point (EN 795, or according to valid
regulations) or directly onto the structure (fig 2B).
Pay always attention to keep the lanyard taught, that the anchor
point is above the waist level, and to protect any contacts of the
lanyard with underlying structure with the sliding protector (fig. 2C).
To shorten, pull the free end of the lanyard in the direction of the
arrow. To lengthen, push the cam in the direction of the arrow with
your thumb (fig. 2D) or pull the handle.
Lory RopeLine used as a positioning device is not suitable for
fall arrest purposes. When a fall from height is a possibility, be
always secured with appropriate means of fall protection or
