Ensure there is adequate fall clearance when working at height. Never modify or alter your fall protection equipment. Only 3M or parties authorized in writing by 3M may make repairs to the equipment. Prior to use of fall protection equipment, ensure a rescue plan is in place which allows for prompt rescue if a fall incident occurs.
Prior to installation and use of this equipment, record the product identification information from the ID label in the Inspection and Maintenance Log (Table 2) at the back of this manual. Always ensure you are using the latest revision of your 3M instruction manual. Visit the 3M website or contact 3M Technical Services for updated instruction manuals.
Hazards may include, but are not limited to: high heat, chemicals, corrosive environments, high voltage power lines, explosive or toxic gases, moving machinery, sharp edges, or overhead materials that may fall and contact the user or equipment. Contact 3M Technical Services for further clarification.

Connectors must be fully closed and locked during use. 3M Connectors (snap hooks and carabiners) are designed to be used only as specified in each instruction manual. Ensure connectors are compatible with the system components to which they are connected. Do not use equipment that is non- compatible.
3.2. Greater free fall distances will require more Fall Clearance. When the connecting subsystem used with the HLL system is a non-3M product, 1 ft. (0.3 m) of additional Fall Clearance must be added to the values in the Fall Clearance charts to account for unknown variation in product performance.

B. SELF-RETRACTING DEVICES (SRDs): Any SRDs used with the HLL System must be approved for use with deformable anchorage systems. Retracted Length: SRDs should have a retracted length of 2 ft. (0.61 m) or less. For SRDs with a retracted length longer than 2 ft.

In multiple-span HLL systems designed under ANSI Z359.6 or CSA Z259.16 to permit multiple users in multiple spans, it is the responsibility of the Qualified Person (and not of 3M) to evaluate and document the design considerations and details which ensure a single event or circumstance will not cause multiple users in multiple spans to fall within a very short period of time.

• A common setup involving 3M Stanchion Posts places the HLL at a height 3 ft. (0.9 m) above the walking surface. A 6 ft. (1.8 m) lanyard used in combination with the Stanchion HLL System can result in a Free Fall of 8 ft. (2.4 m). To account for this increased Free Fall distance, 1 ft.

Ensure parts are thoroughly rinsed with clean water. SERVICE: Only 3M or parties authorized in writing by 3M may make repairs to this equipment. If the HLL System has been subject to fall arrest force or if inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, remove the system from service and destroy or contact 3M regarding replacement or repair.
