    They can be used in conjunction with an HLL system where the VLL is connected to the Horizontal Lifeline and used in a vertical orientation as authorized. Roof structures must have a minimum 2/12 pitch for use of a Safewaze Vertical Rope Lifeline. Do not use on a flat roof unless use is for Fall Restraint purposes only.
  • Page 5: Product Specific Applications

    7.0 PRODUCT SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS Personal Fall Arrest: Safewaze Vertical Lifelines can be used as part of a complete Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS) for a maximum of one user. Only one user may be connected to a VLL. Only one fall arrester is to be attached to the VLL at any given time. Avoid sharp and/or abrasive edges. If contact with an abrasive surface is unavoidable, proper rope protection must be used.

    NOTE: Large snap hooks must not be connected to objects which will result in a load on the gate if the hook twists or rotates. Hooks supplied with Safewaze VLLs comply with ANSI Z359.12 and are equipped with a 3,600 lbs. (16 kN) gate. Check the marking on your snap hook to verify its compatibility.

    12.0 ROPE GRABS Safewaze rope grabs are designed to work with specific rope sizes and types. All grabs are equipped with an “UP” Arrow, which indicates the proper orientation of the grab to the Vertical Rope Lifeline (See Figure 6). Some models are also equipped with an anti-inversion feature which prevents the grab from being installed upside down.

    Great care should be taken to ensure the lifeline does not come into contact with a sharp edge or abrasive surface. If contact with an abrasive surface is unavoidable, the user must ensure that the lifeline is protected from damage. Safewaze recommends use of a rope protector such as our 018-9000 or 018-9001.
