Never connect more than one
person to the fall arrester.
Never block the winding out of
the cable, strap.
The cable or the strap must
always be tensed. In case of "slack",
the equipment must be checked
by the manufacturer.
Lateral movements mustn't
exceed one third of the distance
ground / working surface.
Make your movements on a
normal walking speed. Accelera-
tions, climbs and others engage
the clamping system of the
equipment.
This equipment is designed for a ver-
tical use. If your cable drum has been
designed for a special use (horizon-
tal or inclined) you must follow the
recommendations of the additional
specific instruction.
AIR CLEARANCE
Before using a cable drum, check for
a minimum space clearance below
the user's feet as necessary, to prevent
any collision with the structure or the
ground.
With a weight of 100 kg in a normal
use (cable drum above the head), the
air clearance D is the stopping dis-
tance H + an additional distance A +
1M. A is function of the length of cable
out L and the angle α formed by the
cable (or D, H, A and L in m and α in °)
(Picture 3) (except in special cases -
see specific manual).

ANCHORAGE POINT :

Choose, if possible, an anchorage
point (except in special cases - see
specific manual) that conforms to the
standard EN 795: that is to say ele-
ments fixed to last, to a structure (wall,
post...).
Check that the anchorage point :
has a resistance superior to 10 KN
(Picture 1.10)
is situated above the operator
(Picture 1.7)
vertical to the work surface :
(angle maxi ±30°).
Suits at best the anchoring
system
Does not present sharp edge.

attribute the connector to
one person in particular, where
possible;
check the carabiner before each
use in order to safeguard against
any distortion, any sign of use and
to verify the good functioning of
the locking system. (Picture 4)
do not attach and remove it seve-
ral times during the same working
day, if it has a manual lock
IN THE SAME WAY, IF THE
CARABINER HAS BEEN USED TO
STOP A FALL, IT IS ESSENTIAL FOR
SAFETY REASONS TO RETURN IT
FOR CHECKS .
