height and may be subject to fall hazards, including leading edge hazards. This manual includes
one Appendix containing figures and tables specific to the FT-X
manual.
The SRL discussed in this manual may be attached to or around an overhead anchorage, i.e., from
directly over the user's head, or to or around an anchorage at a maximum of 5' (1.5 m) below the user's
FBH dorsal D-ring.
Leading edge means the unprotected side and edge of a floor, roof, or form work for a floor or other
walking/working surface (such as deck) which changes location as additional floor, roof, decking, or
form work sections are placed, formed, or constructed; see Figure 1.
As shown in Figure 2 below, the FT-X EdgeCore has a nylon housing that contains a synthetic lifeline
wound onto a spring tensioned drum. The FT-X EdgeCore lifeline is equipped with a lifeline stop
and a leg-end connector. When the user is attached, the lifeline extends and retracts with the user
movement, automatically maintaining taut lifeline. If a fall occurs, a centrifugal pawl system engages,
stopping the lifeline payout. In a fall event, the SRL-FBH Connector will break away from the Shear
Connector, and the integral Energy Absorber (EA) will deploy, gradually slowing and arresting the fall.
The FT-X EdgeCore Tie-Back may be connected directly to anchorages with the leg-end carabiner
or may be connected with the leg-end carabiner connecting back onto the lifeline itself around the
anchorage. See Figure 3 for visual representation and Section 5.3 for requirements.
See Table 1A in Appendix A for product, material, and performance specifications.
