Protekt TH-050 Instruction Manual

a full body harness is the only acceptable body holding device that can be used in a fall arrest system.
the anchor device or anchor point for the fall arrest system should always be positioned, and the work carried out in such a way, as to minimise both the potential for falls and
potential fall distance. The anchor device/point should be placed above the position of the user . The shape and construction of the anchor device/point shall not allowed to
self-acting disconnection of the equipment. Minimal static strength of the anchor device/point is 15 kN. It is recommended to use certified and marked structural anchor point
complied with EN795.
it is obligatory to verify the free space required beneath the user at the workplace before each occasion of use the fall arrest system, so that, in the case of a fall, there will be
no collision with the ground or other obstacle in the fall path. The required value of the free space should be taken from instruction manual of used equipment.
there are many hazards that may affect the performance of the equipment and corresponding safety precautions that have to be observed during equipment utilization,
especially:
- trailing or looping of lanyards or lifelines over sharp edges,
- any defects like cutting, abrasion, corrosion,
- climatic exposure,
- pendulum falls,
- extremes of temperature,
- chemical reagents,
- electrical conductivity.
personal protective equipment must be transported in the package (e.g.: bag made of moisture-proof textile or foil bag or cases made of steel or plastic) to protect it against
damage or moisture.
the equipment can be cleaned without causing adverse effect on the materials in the manufacture of the equipment. For textile products use mild detergents for delicate
fabrics, wash by hand or in a machine and rinse in water. Plastic parts can be cleaned only with water. When the equipment becomes wet, either from being in use or when
due cleaning, it shall be allowed to dry naturally, and shall be kept away from direct heat. In metallic products some mechanic parts (spring, pin, hinge, etc.) can be regularly
slightly lubricated to ensure better operation.
personal protective equipment should be stored loosely packed, in a well-ventilated place, protected from direct light, ultraviolet degradation, damp environment, sharp edges,
extreme temperatures and corrosive or aggressive 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.
