  • Page 6: Purpose

    PURPOSE Malta Dynamics Self-Retracting Lifelines are devices used to safely expand the working area where a harness with a six-foot lanyard is not adequate. A Self- Retracting Device (SRD) such as a self-retracting lifeline, is designed to reduce the shock load to the body of a worker by limiting the distance of a fall. The SRD allows complete freedom of movement.
  • Page 7 Arrest System is appropriate for your needs and facility. Calculate fall clearance and swing fall clearance. The amount of clearance required is dependent on the type of connecting subsystem, the anchorage location, and other factors. When calculating distance, be sure to consider: •...

  • Page 8: Limitations For Use

    • Do not allow the line constituent to retract into the unit in an uncontrolled manner. • Malta Dynamics self-retracting lanyards must be used with a full body harness and shall only be used as a personal fall arrest system that limits the maximum free fall distance to 2 feet unless unless using a Class 2 device in which free fall should be limited to 6ft or less.
  • Page 9 • User must not use or install equipment before receiving proper training from a Competent Person, as defined by OSHA 29 CFR 1926.32(f). • Only Malta Dynamics shall make repairs or alterations to the equipment. • All synthetic material must be protected from slag, hot sparks, open flames, or other heat sources.
