    If used in applications with leading edge hazards, anchorage locations must be selected so that the deflected HLL shall not encounter a leading edge in the event of a fall. For below D-ring anchor point installations, contact RITZ SAFETY. Anchorage Connector: Anchorage Connectors used as part of a PFAS should be designed for use with specified anchor points and compatible with the PFAS components and connectors to be used in the assembly of a complete PFAS.
