storage. ■If the user is in a fall risk area, this product cannot be used alone, it becomes inseparable from a comprehensive fall protection
system (EN363), whose function is to minimize the risk of injury from falls. ■Before any use, refer to the recommendations for use for
each component of the system. In these cases, follow the instructions described in their own manual. The documentation supplied
with each product must be kept indefinitely by the user. The fall arrest harness (EN361) is the only body grip to be allowed for use with
a fall arrest system. It must be connected to the fall arrest system by connectors (EN362). The harness can be equipped with: 1 fall
arrest attachment point: back / 2 fall arrest attachment points: back + sternal / Various types of Bavarian PB, MB, MFB, see diagrams
⑨ ⑩ ⑪, / These attachment points are the only ones to be able to accommodate a fall arrester device (energy absorber (EN355),
retractable type fall arresters (EN360), mobile fall arrester system (EN353-1 / EN353-2) in accordance with EN363. The harness can be
fitted with connectors (EN362), a work support belt (EN358), a lanyard (EN354) and a fall arrest shock absorber (EN355).
cases, follow the instructions described in their own manual. / In case of a fall risk, it is necessary to supplement this system with a
collective or personal restraint or protection device against falls from a height (EN363). ■DONNING AND/ OR ADJUSTMENTS: It is
recommended to assign each user a harness. This PPE can only be used by one person at a time. During all these operations, be
careful not to twist the straps. Before donning the equipment, adjustment buckles must be released or opened. Closing and opening of
the different types of loops: ADJUSTMENTS : see diagrams.①②③④ Unfold the harness to put it in the correct direction. Hold the
harness in front of you, with the 'braces' at the top and the thigh straps at the bottom. Put the harness over the back. Don the harness
like a jacket, pulling it snugly onto the shoulders Close the Bavarian sternum strap. see diagrams.⑨⑩⑪ Assemble and adjust the
two parts of each thigh straps by fastening the buckles. ■DONNING AND/ OR ADJUSTMENTS: ADJUSTMENTS: A harness must be
adjusted to the size of the user: adjust the straps by sliding them in the loops and openings provided for this purpose, so that the seat
strap is in place and the back plate is located between the shoulder blades, adjust the adjustable buckles. The harness must be strapped
as close to the body as possible, without excess, to allow the user free movement. These settings must be made at once only and before
the user is in the fall risk area. The harness anchor point must be located above the user (minimum resistance: 12 kN (EN795). The
harness must be connected to the fall protection system through the dorsal or sternal attachment point indicated by the letter A. The
sternal attachment point can be of 2 types: type A/ 2 (2 loops connected via a connector) OR type A (two independent attachment points).
ATTACHMENT POINTS: (cf. marking label on the product) The harness can be equipped with: A-EN361 : ▪1 attachment point on the
back, which can be connected to a fall arrester system. A steel D-ring provides the attachment point on the back. ▪1 attachment point
on the chest, which can be connected to a fall arrester system. The attachment point on the chest comprises two strap loops, which
must be connected together by a connector. (HAR12, HAR12GILNO, HAR14, HAR22H, HAR24H, HAR32, HAR42EL, HAR44EL only
) These attachment points are the only ones to be able to accommodate a fall arrester device (energy absorber (EN355), retractable
type fall arresters (EN360), mobile fall arrester system (EN353-1 / EN353-2) in accordance with EN363. During use, the overall system
must not be in contact with: cutting elements, sharp edges and structures of small diameter, oils, harsh chemicals, fire, hot metal, all
types of electrical conductors... During operation, regularly check the closing and adjustment and/ or fastening elements. For safety
reasons and before each use, check: that the connectors (EN362) are closed and locked / that the operating instructions described for
each component of the system are met / that the general disposition of the work situation reduces the fall risk, the drop height and the
pendulum movement in the case of a fall. /
obstacles disrupt the normal functioning of the fall arrest system. The vertical clearance is the stopping distance H + additional safety
distance of 1 m. The distance H measured from the initial position to the final position (user's balance after the fall arrest). (see table):
Provide a safe distance from the ground and the power lines or areas with an electrical hazard. ■ TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
(See reference table) : -Materials: (PART 4). Comments: ELARA160 Special note for the harness equipped at the dorsal attachment
point of an irremovable shock absorber with lanyard. The harness fitted to the dorsal attachment point of an irremovable shock absorber
with lanyard (EN355) is ready to be used as a fall arrest system. Do not add an shock absorber nor a lanyard to the equipment. Consult
the shock absorber's usage instructions and particularly (EN355) the air draft instructions. ELARA160: Comments: ELARA160 Special
note for the harness equipped at the dorsal attachment point of an irremovable shock absorber with lanyard. The harness fitted to the
dorsal attachment point of an irremovable shock absorber with lanyard (EN355) is ready to be used as a fall arrest system. Do not add
an shock absorber nor a lanyard to the equipment. Consult the shock absorber's usage instructions and particularly (EN355) the air draft
instructions. Usage limits: ▪ Before any PPE implementation operation, set up a rescue plan to deal with any emergency that may occur
during the operation. ■ SHELF LIFE : Textile products or those containing textile elements (harnesses, belts, shock absorbers etc...):
maximum life of 10 years in storage (from date of manufacture), 7 years after the first use. The shelf life is given as an indication. The
following factors can cause it to vary greatly: -Non-compliance with the manufacturer's instructions for transport, storage and use /-
"Aggressive" work environment: marine atmosphere, chemicals, extreme temperatures, sharp edges... /-Particularly intensive use /-
Shock or significant constraint /-Disregard for the product item's history. Warning: these factors can cause damage invisible to the naked
eye. Warning: certain extreme conditions can shorten the shelf life by a few days. In the case of doubt or if the device was used to
stop a fall, it must be immediately withdrawn from use and returned to the manufacturer or any competent person appointed by them. If
in doubt, always remove the product for it to undergo either: - a review /- destruction. The shelf life is not a substitute for periodic
verification (minimum annually) which will assess the condition of the product. ➪TO FIND YOUR LOCAL ANNUAL REVIEW CENTRE,
