    1.0 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a Safewaze Self Retracting Lifeline (SRL). This manual must be read and understood in its entirety and used as part of an employee training program as required by OSHA or any applicable state agency. This manual and any other instructional material must be provided to the user(s) of the equipment.

    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 Edge SRL-Ps are designed to allow for foot level tie-off, but never anchor the SRL at a level below the user’s feet.
  • Page 7: Inspection Frequency

    Safewaze SRLs are authorized for use with Horizontal Lifeline Systems but must NEVER be used as the lifeline constituent of an HLL System. Safewaze Class 1 SRLs must be used in overhead applications only and are not authorized for use below the Dorsal D-ring.
  • Page 8 10.0 ACTUAL ARREST DISTANCE / MINIMUM REQUIRED FALL CLEARANCE Personal Fall Arrest: Safewaze Class 2 SRLs 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 an SRL. Avoid sharp and/or abrasive edges. If contact with an abrasive surface is unavoidable, proper edge protection must be used. The structure utilized for attachment must be capable of withstanding a load of 5,000 lbs.

  • Page 10 Finally, Letter Z represents the Fall Clearance distance required based upon the values of Letters X and Y. • Table 9 provides Fall Clearance distances required when using a Safewaze Latitude Edge SRL-P. To determine your Fall Clearance requirements, find the value for your Setback Distance for Letter (X) on the left side of the chart.
  • Page 11: Swing Falls

    • In evaluating your Leading Edge operations, ensure that work parameters are within the Maximum Free Fall Distance, Minimum Setback Distance, and Minimum Fall Clearance Required in a fall over an edge. These parameters are indicated on the Latitude Edge SRL-P Labeling.
  • Page 12: Fall Protection And Rescue Plan

    During normal operations, the lifeline constituent of the SRL will extend and retract freely with no slack or hesitation as the worker moves at normal speeds. In the event of a fall, Safewaze SRLs are equipped with a speed sensing braking system. The braking system will activate, stopping the fall, and absorbing much of the energy created by the fall.

    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 6 illustrates typical connection of Safewaze SRLs to the Dorsal D-ring of the Full Body Harness.
  • Page 14 (See Section 18) if applicable, or disposed of (See Section 19). 16.3 BODY SUPPORT A full body harness must be worn when using Safewaze SRLs. 16.4 SYSTEM CONNECTIONS Figure 6 illustrates some typical examples of harness and anchorage connections for Latitude Edge SRL-Ps. When using a snap hook to make a connection, ensure roll-out cannot occur (See Figure 4).
