• Do not use a Safewaze SRL in an environment where the fall path is obstructed. Use of a Safewaze SRL on slowly shifting or unstable material such as grain or sand, or within cramped or confined spaces, may not allow the worker to reach adequate speed for the SRL lock up, resulting in possible engulfment.
Free Fall: Safewaze SRLs, when used correctly with the unit anchored directly overhead and no slack in the lifeline, will limit the free fall distance to 0 ft. (0 m). In order to limit free fall distances, keep attachment of the SRL below Dorsal D-ring height to as minimal a distance as possible. Safewaze Latitude / Latitude Pro SRLs are designed to allow for below Dorsal D-ring use, but never anchor the SRL at a level below the user’s feet.
7.0 PURPOSE Self-Retracting Lifelines are used as part of a PFAS. Safewaze SRLs are designed to safely arrest the user in a fall from height, while minimizing forces associated with what can be an extremely violent event. Safewaze SRLs are authorized for use with Horizontal Lifeline Systems but must NEVER be used as the lifeline constituent of an HLL System.

Only a Full Body Harness (FBH) may be used with this equipment. The Full Body Harness must connect to the SRL via the Dorsal D-ring. Safewaze SRLs are not rated for use with a body belt. Use of Safewaze SRLs with a body belt may result in injury. Figure 2 illustrates typical connection of Safewaze SRLs to the Dorsal D-ring of the Full Body Harness.
Following a fall arrest event, the Latitude/Latitude Pro SRL-P must be immediately removed from service following rescue of the worker and tagged “Unusable.” If any component of the users PFAS indicates damage, it must be IMMEDIATELY removed from service and destroyed, or contact Safewaze for repair services.
16.0 MAINTENANCE, SERVICE, AND STORAGE 16.1 MAINTENANCE Cleaning procedures for Safewaze SRLs: Periodically clean the exterior of the SRL using water and a mild soap solution. Clean labels to maintain readability. An excessive buildup of debris on the web lifeline of the SRL may prevent the lifeline from fully retracting back into the housing. Improper retraction of the lifeline constituent of the SRL could create a potential free fall hazard.
16.2 SERVICE Only Safewaze or entities authorized in writing by Safewaze, shall make repairs to this equipment. Remove the SRL from use if the SRL has been subjected to fall arrest forces or has been used to assist in a rescue. If unrepairable, dispose of the SRL as recommended in Section 17. For questions regarding disposal, service, or repair of Safewaze SRLs, contact Safewaze at (800) 230-0319.
17.5 DISPOSAL Dispose of the Safewaze SRL if it has been damaged by fall arrest forces or inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition that cannot be repaired by an authorized Safewaze Service Center. Before disposing of the SRL, cut the lifeline in half so that it is not mistakenly reused. For questions regarding disposal, service, or repair of Safewaze SRLs, contact Safewaze at (800) 230-0319.
