Model:
Size:
Read, understand and follow all instructions, cautions and warnings attached to and/or packed with
this and all occupational protective equipment before each use.
For use by properly trained professionals only.
Employer – Before allowing the use of this equipment, instruct your employees as to its proper use
and alert them to these warnings.
Do NOT use units with steel cable near electrical lines or equipment.
Never work without independent fall-arrest protection if there is danger of a fall.
To attach this device to the fall-arrest anchorage, pass the cable over the fall-arrest anchorage (such
as an aerial boom, I-beam or similar structural member approved by a qualified person, as defined by
OSHA) and attach the ring on the end of the cable back onto the Klein-Lok
rope lanyard around a beam or other structural member; it could be cut or damaged. Instead, use
connecting devices specifically designed for these purposes.
Fall-arrest anchorage must support a minimum of 5,000 lbs. (22.2kN) per attached worker and be
independent of worker support.
Rig to avoid contact with structures below in a fall. If using a deceleration unit, add 3-1/2 ft. (1m)
to the potential fall distance to allow for unit extension.
Always work directly under the fall-arrest anchorage to reduce the possibility of swing-fall injuries
(pendulum effect).
Free-fall distance must NOT exceed 6 ft. (1.8m). Always keep anchorage at or above shoulder height
to minimize fall distance.
OSHA requires that impact force in a fall NOT exceed an 1,800 lb. (8kN) limit with a harness.
Therefore, minimize slack in fall-arrest connecting devices or use deceleration unit to stay under 1,800
lbs. (8kN).
Unit must be destroyed if subjected to impact loading.
Always visually check that: 1) each snap hook freely engages the intended D-ring or attachment
point, and 2) the snap-hook keeper (gate) is completely closed with each use. Have a co-worker visually
check to make sure that the snap hook attached to the fall-arrest D-ring (centered in the back of the
harness) is properly secured. Never rely solely on feel or sound in attempting to determine that a snap
hook is engaged.
Before each use check that: 1) unit is free of burns, cuts, abrasions, broken strands or stitches,
kinks, knots or excessive wear, 2) locking snap hooks, D-rings, and thimbles (if any) are not distorted
or cracked, and 3) hook keepers are free of burrs, functioning properly, clean and not bent. If the unit
does not pass the inspection, it should be removed from service immediately and destroyed or
reinspected by a competent person as defined by OSHA to determine its usability.
Make sure each snap hook is positioned so that its keeper (gate) is never load bearing.
Only use locking snap hooks.
Occupational Protective Equipment (OPE) must only be used for the specific purpose for which it is
designed and intended.
Only use this unit with harnesses and connecting devices meeting OSHA fall-arrest standards.
Never allow non-metallic rope or webbing to come in contact with high-temperature surfaces,
welding sparks, or other heat sources.
Never attach a lanyard back onto itself or attach multiple lanyards together.
Never tie knots in lanyards. Knots can reduce the strength of the lanyard by up to 50%.
Never attach multiple snap hooks onto a D-ring.
Never disable locking keeper (latch) on snap hook or alter a connecting device in any way.
Never join two snap hooks together. They are NOT intended to be used that way, and could twist
apart.
Snap hooks attached onto D-rings must have less than 3/4" (19mm) throat opening. Never attach
ladder or rebar hooks onto D-rings.
For personal fall-arrest use only. NOT for towing, hoisting, recreational or sporting use. Only use as
an anchorage connector in a personal fall-arrest system.
Assume the responsibility for determining that your OPE equipment is in excellent condition at all
times.
Store your OPE equipment out of direct sunlight and in a clean, dry area.
Klein strongly recommends that Klein components NOT be interchanged with other components
made by other manufacturers because Klein cannot guarantee that other manufacturers' components
are free of defects in materials or workmanship.
