1.6 RESCUE PLAN: When using this equipment and connecting subsystems, the employer must have a rescue plan and the
means at hand to implement and communicate that plan to users, authorized persons
rescue team is recommended. Team members should be provided with the equipment and techniques to perform a
successful rescue. Training should be provided on a periodic basis to ensure rescuer proficiency.
1.7 AFTER A FALL: If this equipment is subjected to fall arrest or impact force, remove it from service immediately. Clearly
tag it "DO NOT USE". See Section 4 for more information.
2.0 INSTALLATION
2.1 PLANNING: Plan your Fall Protection system prior to installation of the Floor Mount Base. Account for all factors that
may affect your safety before, during, and after a fall. Consider all requirements, limitations, and specifications defined in
these instructions.
2.2 ANCHORAGE AND FASTENERS: Concrete anchors and mounting hardware are not included. Mounting hardware must
meet the minimum requirements provided in Table 1.
2.3 INSTALLATION STEPS FOR 8530871:
1. Mark anchor holes to be drilled per Figure 2.1 layout.
• The mounting surface must be flat with a slope of no greater than plus or minus 1° (Figure 2.2).
• Ensure the Base will be offset from any edge of the surface per the fastener manufacturer's recommended
setback distance (B). Select fasteners appropriate for the material thickness (A) of the mounting surface.
• Drill each hole according to the fastener manufacturer's depth specifications.
2. Install the Floor Mount Base.
• Ensure the mounting surface is free of any debris before setting the Base in place.
• Remove debris from the drilled holes.
• Fasten the Base to the mounting structure per the fastener manufacturer's installation instructions.
• Ensure the base is within the plus or minus 1° from vertical.
3. Install the Mast in the Base (Figure 3.1).
• Install the 3M Modular Jib System M100 onto the Base.
• Apply grease to grease fitting located on the Jib (Figure 3.2).
2.4 INSTALLATION STEPS FOR 8530872:
1. Mark sleeve location to be drilled per Figure 4.2 layout.
• The mounting surface must be flat with a slope of no greater than plus or minus 1° (Figure 4.1).
• Drill Ø5.06 in. (132 mm) hole to a depth of 22.75 in. (578 mm) into the existing concrete (Figure 4.2).
• Remove debris from hole (A) and inject epoxy into hole per manufacturer instructions (Figure 4.3).
• Additional anchors can be used to secure the base to the mounting surface (Figure 4.2).
• Insert the Base into the hole until the top of the Base is resting on top of the mounting surface.
;
Ensure no epoxy enters the anchor opening during install.
• Allow epoxy to cure before proceeding to next steps.
• If additional fasteners are used, fasten the Base to the existing concrete by tightening the concrete anchor bolts
to the recommended torque.
;
The Base can also be installed directly into fresh concrete, allowing the Base to be flush with the mounting
surface.
2. Install the 3M Modular Jib System M100 onto the Base.
• Lower the Mounting Post until the Rotation Block (A) is resting in the Locking Slot (B) in the Base (Figure 5.1).
• Install the 3M Modular Jib System M100 onto the Base (Figure 5.2).
• Apply grease to grease fitting located on the Jib (Figure 5.3).
;
Insert the Base Cap into the Base when the Mast is not in the Base (Figure 5.4).
3.0 USE
3.1 BEFORE EACH USE: Verify that your work area and Fall Protection system meet all criteria defined in these instructions.
Verify that a formal Rescue Plan is in place. Inspect the system per the 'User' inspection points defined in the "Inspection
and Maintenance Log" (Table 2). If inspection reveals an unsafe or defection condition, or if there is any doubt about its
condition for safe use, remove the system from service immediately. Clearly tag the system "DO NOT USE". See Section 4
for more information.
3.2 SAFE WORKING AREA: The Safe Working Area of the Jib Base does not extend beyond the length of the Jib Base itself.
See Figure 6 for reference. When using the M100 Jib System, the user should remain within the indicated Safe Working
Area (A). Leaving the Safe Working Area to an Outside Location (B) is dangerous and could result in serious injury or death.
When working on either side of the M100 Jib System, keep the anchor point as close overhead as possible. If a rotation
stop is in place on the jib mount, never work past that rotation stop. See the instruction manual for the M100 Jib Boom
(5908371) for more information.
3 Authorized Person:
A person assigned by the employer to perform duties at a location where the person will be exposed to a fall hazard.
4 Rescuer:
A person using the Rescue system to perform an assisted rescue.
