System Requirements - Falltech SteelGrip Temporary Cable Horizontal Lifeline User Instruction Manual

For worst case clearance calculations the user of the FallTech SteelGrip® Cable HLL systems may opt to use the ANSI Z359.14 maximum
deceleration distances when determining clearance requirements. ANSI Z359.14 allows up to 24" of deceleration for Class A SRDs and up
to 54" of deceleration for Class B SRDs. The charts below demonstrate clearance requirements below the working surface when using
the FallTech SteelGrip® Temporary Cable HLL and attaching either Class A or Class B SRDs to the HLL. Overhead anchorage only.

2.8 Rescue: The FallTech SteelGrip® Temporary Cable HLL is part of a complete PFAS. It is not intended as a rescue device. Users of this
system presents a wide variety of potential rescue scenarios. Users of this system should understand their work environment and
develop a rescue plan accordingly. It is recommended that a trained on-site rescue team be present during use of the system.
