G-Force P-80 Instructions For Use

All the information regarding the protective equipment (name, serial number, date of purchase and beginning of use, user name, and information regarding repairs and
!
overhauls, as well as withdrawals) must be placed in the utilisation card for a given device. The site where the equipment is used is responsible for completing the
utilisation card. The card is filled in by the person in charge of protective equipment on site. Pieces of personal protective equipment without a complete utilisation card
must not be used.
If the equipment is sold abroad, from the country of origin the equipment supplier should attach an operation and maintenance manual, as well as provide information about
!
periodic surveys and repairs in the language of the country where the equipment is to be used.
A piece of PPE should be immediately taken out of use if any doubts pertaining to its state or its normal operation occur. Putting it again into use is possible upon the
!
completion of a detailed survey carried out by the manufacturer of the equipment and their written approval for bringing it back to use.
! An item of PPE should be taken out of use and withdrawn from use (destroyed) if it took part in the protection from fall incident.
The safety harness is the only acceptable device for keeping a body in an item of PPE for protection against falls from height.
!
A point (device) for the anchoring of a piece of equipment for protection against falls from height should have a stable design and location to limit the possibility of fall and to
!
minimise the length of free fall. The anchoring point should be located above its user's place of work. The shape and design of an anchoring point for a device should
guarantee a permanent fixation of equipment and cannot lead to accidental disconnection. Minimum static strength of the anchoring point for a piece of PPE equipment for
protection against falls from height is 15 kN. It is recommended to use certified and marked anchoring points of equipment complying with EN 795.
It is mandatory to check the free space under the work place where a piece of equipment for protection against falls from height is to be used to avoid the possibility of
!
hitting any objects or the surface underneath during possible fall. The amount of free space under a work place is to be checked in the operation manual for the PPE item to
be used.
During the use of equipment, pay special attention to any dangerous phenomena influencing the operation of the equipment and the safety of the user, especially:
!
- looping and sliding of ropes on sharp edges,
- any damage - cuts, wearing through and corrosion,
- negative influence of climate,
An item of PPE should be transported in a packaging that protects it from damage or wetting, e.g. in bags made from impregnated fabric, steel or plastic cases or grates.
!
The PPE items must be cleaned in a way that prevents damaging the material (raw material) of the device. In the case of textile materials (tapes, ropes), use cleaning
!
agents for delicate fabrics. Can be washed by hand or in a washing machine. Rinse thoroughly. Plastic parts can be cleaned with water only. A PPE device that became wet
during cleaning or use should be cleaned thoroughly in natural conditions away from heat sources. Metal parts and mechanisms (springs, hinges, pawls etc.) may be
periodically lightly lubricated to improve their operation.
PPE devices should be stored in loose packaging in well-ventilated, dry rooms, protected against light, UV radiation, dust, sharp objects, extreme temperatures and caustic
!
substances.
The site where the equipment is used is responsible for completing the utilisation card.
The utilisation card should be filled in before the first release for use of the device.
All the information pertaining to the protective equipment (name, serial number, date of purchase and date of introduction into use, user name,
information about periodic surveys and repairs) should be included in the utilisation card of a device.
The card is filled in by the person in charge of protective equipment on site.
Pieces of personal protective equipment without a complete utilisation card must not be used.
