Swing falls occur when the anchorage point is not directly above the point where a fall occurs.
The force of striking an object in a swing fall may cause serious injury or death. Minimize
potential for swing falls by working as close to the anchorage point as possible. Do not permit a
swing fall if injury could occur. Swing falls significantly increase the amount of clearance
required. See Illustration 1.
Illustration 1: Examples of Swing Fall Hazards
Users must have a rescue plan and the means to implement it. This plan must provide prompt
employee rescue or assure that employees have the ability to rescue themselves in the event
of a fall.
Store this equipment in a cool, dry, and clean environment that is out of direct light when not in
use to prevent UV degradation.
This equipment must be removed from service immediately if a fall is incurred.

Limitations for Use

WARNING:
Do not use this equipment if you are unable to tolerate the impact of a fall
arrest. Age and fitness can seriously affect your ability to withstand a fall. Consult with a
physician if in doubt.
Minors, pregnant women, and anyone with a history of back and/or neck
problems must not use this equipment.
WARNING: Use caution when employing this equipment around machines, electrical
hazards, chemical hazards and sharp edges or abrasive surfaces, as contact may cause
equipment failure, personal injury, or death.
Use only with compatible components of subsystems. Substitutions or replacements made with
non-approved components or subsystems may jeopardize compatibility of equipment and may
affect the safety and reliability of the complete system.
Self-Retracting Lifelines are designed for a single user with combined weight - including
clothing, tools, etc. - within weight capacity range 130 lbs. to 310 lbs.
Use only with structures capable of supporting static loads required for Personal Fall Arrest
Systems (PFAS). Anchorages used for PFAS must be capable of sustaining static loads in the
direction permitted by the PFAS of at least: 3,600 lbs. with certification of a qualified person; or
5,000 lbs. without certification. When more than one PFAS is attached to an anchorage, the
strengths stated above must be met independently at and for each anchorage location.
Do not expose this equipment to chemicals or harsh solutions that may have a harmful effect.
User must not use or install equipment before receiving proper training from a Competent
