used. GYRO LANYARD was tested with the following friction hitches:
• Michoacan/Martin hitch 4+1 (preassembled): easy drive hitch that facilitates recovery
•
• Distel hitch 4+1: more reactive hitch but requires more expert adjustment

Check that the braking action can be controlled when a light pressure is exerted on the knot. To work on the end of
the GYRO LIMITER [3] and on the loop of the GYRO LIMITER KEEPER [3b] see Fig. 4b.
Use
using the following equation: Fall Factor = Height of Fall / Length of Lanyard. In situations where the Fall Factor

). Fall arrest equipment must be used for other situations where the Fall Factor is greater than 1
second fall arresting safety system is essential. The anchor point must be in compliance with the EN795 standard
and/or known to have a resistance of 12 kN (metal anchors) or 18 kN (fabric anchors). The anchoring point must
be at or above waist level. Only use connectors conforming to standard EN 362. The main attachment hole [6] of
the regulator [4]
compliant with PPE-R/11.135 must be inserted in the seat of the terminal connector [2]. In order to avoid burns
holder on the harness. Do not connect the unused end to a connection point on the harness or to an anchor point
(Fig. 6). GYRO LANYARD is not cut-resistant when in contact with cutting tools or sharp edges. Evaluate the need
for its use in combination with a device that has greater cut resistance.
