C.
ROOF tyPES: The Roof Top Counterweight Anchor System is approved for use on the following types of roofs:
concrete, bitumen, asphalt sanded, and asphalt stone chippings. The roof surface must be flat, not exceeding an
inclination of 5 degrees. If you want to use the system on any other type of roofing surface, contact DBI-SALA for
further recommendations.
D.
ROOF lOAD: The roof must be able to support a static load of 327 kg.
E.
ROOF COnDitiOnS: The Roof Top Counterweight Anchor System must not be used in adverse weather conditions.
The roof surface must be free of frost, snow, standing water, grease or oil, or any other type of lubricating or friction
reducing materials.
F.
PERSOnAl FAll ARRESt SyStEm: PFASs used with this roof anchor must meet applicable requirements. PFASs
incorporating a full body harness must be capable of arresting a worker's fall with a maximum arresting force of
no greater than 6 kN and limit the free fall distance to 1.8 m or less. Contact DBI-SALA if you have questions or
concerns regarding free fall limits.
G.
EnviROnmEntAl HAZARDS: Use of this equipment in areas where environmental hazards exist may require
additional precautions be taken to reduce the possibility of injury to the user or damage to the equipment. Hazards
may include, but are not limited to: high heat, extreme cold, caustic chemicals, corrosive environments, high voltage
power lines, explosive or toxic gases, moving machinery, or sharp edges. Contact DBI-SALA if you have questions
about using this equipment where environmental hazards exist.

2.1
COnnECtOR COmPAtiBility: Connectors are considered to be 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. Contact Capital Safety if you have any questions about
compatibility.
Connectors (hooks, carabiners, and D-rings) must be capable of supporting at least 15 kN. Connectors must be
compatible with the anchorage or other system components. Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Non-
compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage (see Figure 2). If the connecting element to which a snap hook or
carabiner attaches is undersized or irregular in shape, a situation could occur where the connecting element applies a force
to the gate of the snap hook or carabiner (Figure 2, A). This force may cause the gate to open (Figure 2, B), allowing the
snap hook or carabiner to disengage from the connecting point (Figure 2, C).
2.2
mAkinG COnnECtiOnS: Snap hooks and carabiners used with this equipment must be self-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.
Capital Safety connectors (snap hooks and carabiners) are designed to be used only as specified in each product's user's
instructions.
Examples of inappropriate connections are shown in Figure 3. Do not connect snap hooks and carabiners:
A.
To a D-ring to which another connector is attached.
B.
In a manner that would result in a load on the gate.
C.
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.
D.
To each other.
E.
Directly to webbing or rope lanyard or tie-back (unless the manufacturer's instructions for both the lanyard and
connector specifically allows such a connection).
F.
To any object which is shaped or dimensioned such that the snap hook or carabiner will not close and lock, or that
roll-out could occur.
G.
In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under load.
