FABA™ system components
1. Entries and exits
The FABA™ fall arrest slider can be
inserted or removed at any position of
the climbing protection system. Entry
and exit sections that may be present are
therefore not necessary. Moreover, the
FABA™-EZ fall arrest slider is too large
for the entry and exit sections.
2. Permanent catches
These prevent you from exiting the clim-
bing protection at the ends of the climbing
path (including horizontal sections) and at
gates. They may not be removed.
3. Detachable catches
These prevent you from accidentally lea-
ving the climbing protection. It is possible
to deliberately detach yourself from the
system after opening the catch, but this is
only permitted if you have previously taken
other safety precautions against falling.
Activation
System A12
– Pull and hold the knob behind the rail.
The slider can now pass.
System AL2
– Press the lever backwards and hold.
The slider can now pass.
Detachable catches are however not ne-
cessary when using the FABA™-EZ fall
arrest slider as this fall arrest slider can be
removed at any position (see page 6).
4. Resting platform
You can pass by the resting platform when
the access fl ap is folded up. You can fold
the access fl ap down and use it as a resting
platform if necessary. If the resting platform
is used as a standing location from which
other work will be carried out, then the
user must also safeguard himself against
falling using an additional safety device
that is independent from the guided type
fall arrester.
Activation
– To fold it out, swivel the platform
upward and forward until it lies on
the rung.
– To fold it in, swivel the platform
upward and to the rear until it reaches
the stop.
Maintenance
The FABA™ fall protection device is
virtually maintenance-free. The fall arrest
slider should be cleaned, if necessary,
with a dry or moistened cloth after being
used and left to dry before being put
away. Do not leave it out to dry in the
sun or in the vicinity of an open fi re or
not anywhere where it might be aff ected
by heat.
If the slider needs to be disinfected, ple-
ase contact Tractel Greifzug GmbH for
further information.
Storage
The FABA™ fall arrest slider must be
stored at temperatures between -30 °C
and +60 °C when it is dry and protected
against atmospheric conditions and ag-
gressive materials.
