Intended Use:
This Work Positioning/Travel Restraint Lanyard is intended for use as part of a complete personal fall protection system. Work Positioning/
Travel restraint lanyards are used to prevent the user from reaching or being exposed to a fall hazard.
Use in any other application including, but not limited to, material handling, recreational or sports related activities, or other activities not
described in the User Instructions, is not approved by 3M and could result in serious injury or death.
This device is only to be used by trained users in workplace applications.
!
WARNING
This Work Positioning/Travel Restraint Lanyard is part of a personal fall protection system. It is expected that all users be fully trained
in the safe installation and operation of their personal fall protection system. Misuse of this device could result in serious injury
or death. For proper selection, operation, installation, maintenance, and service, refer to these User Instructions and all manufacturer
recommendations, see your supervisor, or contact 3M Technical Services.
•
To reduce the risks associated with working with a Work Positioning/Travel Restraint Lanyard which, if not avoided,
could result in serious injury or death:
-
Only use this device for work positioning or in travel restraint applications. Work Positioning Lanyards must be configured to limit
free fall distance to two feet or less and minimize swing fall. Travel Restraint Lanyards must prevent the user from reaching or
being exposed to a fall hazard.
-
Never use this lanyard (i.e., a non-energy absorbing lanyard) as a primary fall arrest device.
-
Inspect the device before each use, at least annually, and after any fall event. Inspect in accordance with the User Instructions.
-
If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, remove the device from service and destroy it.
-
Any device that has been subject to fall arrest or impact force must be immediately removed from service. Refer to the User
Instructions or contact 3M Fall Protection.
-
Ensure all connecting subsystems (e.g. lanyards) are kept free from all hazards including, but not limited to, entanglement with
other workers, yourself, moving machinery, or other surrounding objects.
-
Ensure proper edge protection is used when the lifeline may come into contact with sharp edges or corners.
-
Ensure the device is rigged appropriately for the intended use.
-
Attach the unused leg(s) of the lanyard to the parking attachment(s) of the harness if equipped.
-
Do not tie or knot the lanyard.
-
Do not exceed the number of allowable users.
-
Ensure that fall protection systems/subsystems assembled from components made by different manufacturers are compatible
and meet the requirements of applicable standards, including the ANSI Z359 or other applicable fall protection codes, standards,
or requirements. Always consult a Competent or Qualified Person before using these systems.
•
To reduce the risks associated with working at height which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death:
-
Ensure your health and physical condition allow you to safely withstand all of the forces associated with working at height.
Consult with your doctor if you have any questions regarding your ability to use this equipment.
-
Never exceed allowable capacity of your fall protection equipment.
-
Never exceed maximum free fall distance of your fall protection equipment.
-
Do not use any fall protection equipment that fails pre-use or other scheduled inspections, or if you have concerns about the use
or suitability of the equipment for your application. Contact 3M Technical Services with any questions.
-
Some subsystem and component combinations may interfere with the operation of this equipment. Only use compatible
connections. Consult 3M prior to using this equipment in combination with components or subsystems other than those described
in the User Instructions.
-
Use extra precautions when working around moving machinery (e.g. top drive of oil rigs), electrical hazards, extreme
temperatures, chemical hazards, explosive or toxic gases, sharp edges, or below overhead materials that could fall onto you or
your fall protection equipment.
-
Use Arc Flash or Hot Works devices when working in high heat environments.
-
Avoid surfaces and objects that can damage the user or equipment.
-
Ensure there is adequate fall clearance when working at height.
-
Never modify or alter your fall protection equipment. Only 3M or parties authorized in writing by 3M may make repairs to the
equipment.
-
Prior to use of fall protection equipment, ensure a rescue plan is in place which allows for prompt rescue if a fall incident occurs.
-
If a fall incident occurs, immediately seek medical attention for the worker who has fallen.
-
Do not use a body belt for fall arrest applications. Use only a Full Body Harness.
-
Minimize swing falls by working as directly below the anchorage point as possible.
-
If training with this device, a secondary fall protection system must be utilized in a manner that does not expose the trainee to
an unintended fall hazard.
-
Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment when installing, using, or inspecting the device/system.
