Page 7: Application
SELF RETRACTING LIFELINE APPLICATION A. PURPOSE: RELIANCE Self Retracting Lifelines (SRL’s) are used as one component in a personal fall arrest system (PFAS). The SRL’s described in this manual meet, ANSI Z359.1 and OSHA requirements (except where noted). These instruc- tions, and markings borne by the SRL’s, fulfill the instruction and marking re-... - Page 8 • Elevation of anchorage • Connecting subsystem length • Deceleration distance • Free fall distance • Worker height • Movement of harness attachment element *Note : Product Exceptions 4011 Skyloc™ Self Retracting Lifeline: The 4011 SRL utilizes an external energy absorber integrated into the lifeline itself. This does not change fall clearance calculations for this unit.

Page 9: Swing Pendulum Falls
Instructions for Use Figure 4 4) SWING PENDULUM FALLS: Swing falls occur when the anchorage point is not DIRECTLY above the point where a fall occurs. If the worker fall in such a situation, there is a possibility of a swing fall that may bring him into contact with objects below or to the side of him, possibly causing serious injury or death. - Page 10 RIGHT WRONG Figure 5 If an object is in his swing path (or that of the cable) a hazardous situation exists. Two factors become evident in this situation : First, due to the swing fall, horizontal speed of the worker may be high enough to cause injury if an obstacle in the swing fall path is struck by either the user or the cable (web).

Page 11: Chemical Hazards
Instructions for Use also increases as the initial (before fall) length of extended cable is increased and as the initial angle which the cable makes with the vertical is increased. For example, if the initial extended cable length is 10 ft (3m), the drop at the bottom of the pendulum swing would be 1.3 ft (.4m) This is in addition to the cable extension due to the devices internal shock absorption which may be as much as 3.3. -
Page 12: Electrical Hazards
An energy absorbing component can sometimes be added in-line to further protect the worker. Compatibility and total fall distance must be considered if this is done. Contact Reliance before using an in- line energy absorbing component or lanyard with an SRL. NOTE... -
Page 13: Systems Requirements
Connecting subsystems must be suitable for use in the application (e.g. fall arrest or restraint). RELIANCE manufactures a line of connecting subsystems for most applications. -
Page 14: Anchorages And Anchorage Connectors
NOTE: These strengths must be multiplied by the number of persons that will be connecting to the anchorage point at any one time. 2. Pass a large carabiner or bow shackle (or other Reliance approved connecting means) through the swivel eye or handle at the top of the Skyloc™. -
Page 15: Connecting The Srl To A Harness
Instructions for Use B. CONNECTING THE SRL TO A HARNESS All 400X series SRL’s can be connected directly to the harness webbing at the back D-Ring location utilizing the 4007-65 Connector (Figure 6). 1. Remove clevis connector from top of SRL case. (Up to 2 units may be connected to the anchor loop of the 4007-65 adaptor bracket) Pass clevis(‘s) through the 4007-65 anchor loop and reinstall anchor pin through clevis and secure anchor pin with the supplied safety locking pin (Figure 7). -
Page 16: Preparation For Use
Removal is the opposite if installation. Installation methods are not limited to bow shackles or carabiners. Custom brackets are available for permanent or specialized installations. Contact Reliance to help identify specific installation methods for your situation. D. INSPECT PRIOR TO USE: Before the use of this SRL, inspect the SRL and all components of the PFAS: 1) Inspect the SRL to verify that it is in serviceable condition. - Page 17 Instructions for Use of a PFAS. Some considerations are listed below (see APPLICATIONS, item B. USE LIMITATIONS section for additional details); 1) Anchorage Selection. In addition to strength considerations, the anchorage should be rigged to prevent a fall onto the structure when considering 2) and 4) below.

Contact Reliance Engineering for help in selecting equipment for these applications. 5) Rescue and Evacuation - The user and employer must have a rescue plan in place, training in its use, and the means to implement it at hand. -
Page 19: Inspections
(Figures 11 & 12). Once the load indicator has been deployed, the SRL must be returned to a Reliance Industries approved repair facility for evaluation and recertification. -
Page 20: Training
2) The worker should also verify that conditions around the SRL location have not changed that may affect its’ ability to arrest a fall, such as obstacles or equipment directly below the anchorage point which might create a swing fall. 3) Before every use, the worker should extract all of the cable / web and examine it for defects that would affect its overall strength. -
Page 21: Rescue Planning
The system and all components must be withdrawn from service if sub- jected to fall arrest forces. Those components may be returned to service only after being certified by a Qualified Person. Only original Reliance Industries equipment and replacement parts are approved for use in this system. -
