DOUBLE ACTION CARABINERS
CAUTION: On some occasions the tools a user
has to carry for specific work at all heights do
not come with built-in or prescribed attachment
options for the tool lanyard connection. The
D
WALT range of tool attachments are the perfect
E
solution for such cases and help provide a secure
connection for the tool lanyard in the tethering
system. Different tools will require different
tethering system components depending on their
shape and weight. Do not use the tethering system
for pulling or towing objects.
