this maximum working load, by referring to their
respective manuals. If this is not the case, the
maximum working load will be that of the weakest
working load component of the fall arrest system.
• Operating temperature: -30°C to + 60°C for the work
position securing lanyard.
DANGER: Never use a work position securing
lanyard as a fall arrest device. If there is a risk of an
operator falling from a height, use an EN 363 fall arrest
system as well.
DANGER: If the kind of intervention includes
supports that have sharp edges, you will need to use a
protective sleeve.
5. Operating principle
Use:
To be able to use the work position securing lanyard,
you will need to connect it to each of the two EN 358
work position support belt rings.
• Connect the carabiner of the work position securing
lanyard (figure 2.a) to one of the lateral anchoring
points of the belt, and check that the connector has
locked correctly.
• Connect the other connector to the other lateral
anchor point on the belt, passing the securing
lanyard around the support (figure 2.b).
Adjusting the length of the work position securing
lanyard:
• Pull on the lanyard as shown in Figure 2c.
• Assembly - disassembly of LCM 06 tensioner.
