• Increased swing fall potential
• The locking speed of the SRL may vary in
the event of a fall due to friction between
the lifeline and the platform edge
• The SRL may lock up quicker than the
workers walking pace and thus cause
a fall by jerking the worker off balance

the unit has been subjected to fall forces.
Visually inspect the connector, if red
appears, remove from service.
