5.2 - Product Installation & Set-up (continued)
2. Installation of the #SB-SM1 4-Arm Manway Mount:
Choose a location where installation will provide suitable proximity to the work area yet minimize obstructions during
use and in the event a rescue is necessary.
• W henutilizedasaFallArrestTowerAnchorage: Install the mount so that the tower to be utilized will clear
all obstructions yet provide full access to all required work areas within the towers's safe working radius.
**Once a location is chosen, Ensure that the manway to which the mount will be attached is
capable of withstanding all of the forces imparted to it by the proof-loaded system (Refer to
Section 5.1 of this manual).
a. Loosen any mounting hardware to which the 4 arms of the manway mount will be bolted to.
b. Position the mount so that each pivoting arm is angled to their respective corners (Refer to Fig. #5.2c & #5.2d).
c. Secure the mount by sliding the slider blocks within the arms to the mounting holes on the manway (Refer to Fig.
#5.2e).
d. Ensure that the mounting base of the #SB-SM1 is as close to the center of the manway as possible.
e. Tighten all hardware to standard dry torques according to the size of the mounting hardware.
! WARNING ! - Mounting hardware must be greater or equal to 1/2" in diameter!
f. Check to see and ensure that the arms of the manway mount sit flush to the manway cover and all hardware is
tightened.
