PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Figure 1 illustrates the Flexiguard
boom mounted Glide Rail Fall Arrest Systems that rotate 360° on various base options. Systems with a Counterweight Base can
be transported with a Forklift, Pallet Jack, Crane, etc. Systems with a stationary Flush Mount Base or Floor Mount Base can be
transported from base to base with a Crane, Hoist, or Forklift with a Lifting Strap/Chain.
Figure 2 illustrates components of the Adjustable Jib Boom Fall Arrest Systems. See Table 1 for component identifi cation and
specifi cations. The Jib Rail Assembly (A) extends from an Adjustable Upright (B) and supports a Glide Rail (C) with a Four-
Wheeled Trolley (D) that travels back and forth in the Rail Halves. The Trolley is equipped with a 5/8" Eye for connection of a
Self-Retracting Lifeline or Energy Absorbing Lanyard.
The Adjustable Upright is mounted on a Hitch Ball Post (E) that is embedded in a concrete fi lled Counterweight Base (F),
embedded in concrete structure (G), or fastened to a concrete surface (H). The height of the Jib Boom is adjusted with a Hand
Crank (I) and Lifting Mechanism (J) that raise or lower the Adjustable Upright. The Adjustable Upright can be rotated 360° with
the foldable Rotation Handle (K) and locked at 11° increments with the Rotation Lock Pin Mechanism (L) or allowed to rotate
through a range defi ned by two Rotation Limiters (R). The bottom of the Counterweight Base has Lifting Channels (N) and Lifting
Eyes (O) for transport with a Forklift, Pallet Jack, Crane, etc. and Slope Indicators (P) to ensure the system is level. Optional
Leveling Jacks (Q) can be installed on the Counterweight Bases.
