The installation must always begin at the top, proceeding down. • The topmost SafeRail ladder section must consist of a complete element (3000 mm or 5700 mm). Both ends of the ladder element must be equipped with factory-prepared holes. Page 3...
FASTENERS USED FOR INSTALLATION • The SafeRail ladder elements Single Step Ladder MM 111 and Twin Step Ladder MM 112 are attached to the chosen structure using fasteners that are based on the SafeRail Clamp-rail fastener MM 211. These are MM 221- MM 263. The SafeRail ladder elements with handrails, Handrail Ladder MM 121 and MM 122 are attached to the chosen structure using fasteners MM 271 –...
CAUTION! Each section of the safety rail where the SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage used with the SafeRail ladder can come off the rail must be equipped with a stopper. As mentioned in section 2.7, the stoppers designed to be used at the top end of SafeRail ladders and/or Vertical SafeRail-safety rails include the unlocking Carriage Stopper-carriage barrier MM 312 and the fixed Carriage Stopper- carriage barrier MM 313.
JOINING OF VERTICAL SAFERAIL -SAFETY RAILS • The SafeRail Joint-extension piece MM 201 is attached using the holes at the ends of the Vertical SafeRail-safety rails. GROUND CLEARANCE • We recommend allowing a ground clearance of 500 mm for the Vertical SafeRail-safety rail to ensure that the SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage can be easily coupled with the Vertical SafeRail- safety rail and removed from it.
USE AND INSTALLATION OF FASTENERS BASED ON THE SAFERAIL CLAMP -RAIL FASTENER The SafeRail Clamp-rail fastener MM 211 is an essential fastener used with the SafeRail-fall arrest system. It provides the basis for the fasteners used with the SafeRail ladders and the Vertical SafeRail-safety rails.
USE AND INSTALLATION OF THE UNLOCKING CARRIAGE STOPPER-CARRIAGE BARRIER MM 312 The unlocking Carriage Stopper-carriage barrier MM 312 is installed at the top end of a SafeRail ladder or a Vertical SafeRail- safety rail to prevent the SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage from coming off the safety rail accidentally.
BARRIER MM 311 The unlocking Carriage Stopper-carriage barrier MM 311 is installed at the bottom of a SafeRail ladder or Vertical SafeRail-safety rail. It prevents the SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage from coming off the safety rail accidentally when descending back to ground level/starting plane.
USE AND INSTALLATION OF THE CARRIAGE GUIDE MM 301 A Carriage Guide must always be installed at both the top and bottom ends of SafeRail ladders and safety rails. This ensures that the SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage is coupled with the safety rail in the correct position.
USE AND INSTALLATION OF THE SAFERAIL JOINT- EXTENSION PIECES MM 201 The SafeRail Joint-extension pieces are used to connect the SafeRail ladder elements and the Vertical SafeRail-safety rails with each other. 10.1 INSTALLATION OF THE SAFERAIL JOINT-EXTENSION PIECES MM 201 1.
SafeRail-fall arrest system in the language of the country in question. BEFORE EACH USE The user must review the user instructions before using the SafeRail-fall arrest system as well as be familiar with the use of fall protection equipment (SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage, Vertical SafeRail-safety rail, and the safety harness).

Please note that the SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage cannot be used to prevent falling. It is instead designed to arrest a user’s fall. When falling down, the SafeRail Carriage will automatically lock on to the locking notches placed at 150 mm intervals on the Vertical SafeRail-safety rail. If fall prevention is required, personal protective equipment designed specifically for the purpose must be used.
• More than one user may be supported by a Vertical SafeRail-safety rail, but in this case, it must be ensured that each section between the fasteners only has a single user at any one time.

SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage and the fall arrest system. If there are any doubts related to state of health or working ability of the user, it should be checked by a doctor before using the system.
Any broken components of SafeRail ladders and Vertical SafeRail-safety rails must be replaced with new ones. No modifications or additions may be made to the SafeRail-fall arrest system, and its components may not be replaced with any other parts than those approved by the manufacturer.

A template for the inspection report can be found on pages 21–22. If any deviation, unusual wear, or reduction of spring force of the SafeRail Carriage-safety carriage is observed during inspection or use, the system must immediately be decommissioned. If the observed...
COMMISSIONING INSPECTION Before the SafeRail-fall arrest system is taken into use or after repairs have been performed to the system, a commissioning inspection must be carried out, during which the entire system and its individual components are inspected.
The periodic inspection is carried out in accordance with sections 6.1.1.–6.1.2. In addition, the SafeRail-fall arrest system must, as stated in section 1 of the user instructions, be inspected by the user before each use.
