USE RESTRICTIONS

This equipment must be used by one person only.
The maximum rated weight of each harness is 140 kg, including the material.

The anchoring point for the fall prevention system must be above the position of the user. The anchoring point must have a minimum static strength of 12 kN (metal) or 18 kN (textile) and comply with the requirements of Standard EN 795:2012.
This personal protection equipment must not be used by individuals with health conditions that can impair their safety during normal use or in emergency conditions.

This personal protection equipment must only be used by individuals who have received training in its use and are capable of using it safely.
A fall prevention harness is the only body-worn device that can be used in a fall prevention system.

USING INSTRUCTION

WEARING AND FASTENING

The harness should be the right size for the user. A harness with straps that are too loose or too tight can restrict user movement, thereby not providing the necessary degree of protection. See the sizes table.

Each harness model has speciﬁc features and is donned by following certain steps. Check the pictograms to ﬁnd the sequence that corresponds to each model.
Place the harness over the body, ensure that the straps are not twisted and that all the buckles and snap hooks are properly connected.

After placing all the straps, use the buckles to adapt the harness to the body. Place the anti-slip system part against the buckle and store the excess strap correctly.

Fall prevention harness (EN 361:2002)

To locate the fall prevention anchoring points on the harness, look for the “A” mark, which should be near the anchoring point. The “A/2” label means that it is necessary to connect two connection points with the same identiﬁcation at the same time. It is forbidden to connect the protection system to a single connection point labeled “A/2”.
If use is made of the dorsal D ring extension strap along with an energy-absorbing lanyard as per EN 355:2002, the maximum total length cannot exceed 2 meters, including the snap hooks and the extension strap.

Positioning belt (EN 358:2018)
Harnesses provided with a positioning belt can be used to keep the user in their working position (positioning) or prevent them from reaching a point from which they can fall (restraint). The lateral positioning D rings should not be used for fall prevention.

Sit harness (EN 813:2008)
The seat harness is used in positioning, restraint, or rope access systems. The waist D ring should not be used for fall prevention.

Rescue harness (EN 1497:2007)
The D ring (LP14) on the rescue belt or the textile rescue rings on the shoulders (WB 1, 2, 3, and 4) are used exclusively to connect to rescue equipment during a rescue operation. They should not be used for fall prevention. If textile rings (WB range) are used, a rescue belt (Boomer) must be fastened.

Suspension test

Before using the harness, the user should carry out a suspension test in a safe place to ensure that the harness size is appropriate, the ﬁt is correct, and that it is sufﬁciently comfortable for the expected working conditions.
Do not use this harness if it does not ﬁt properly.

CHECKS BEFORE USE

The user must perform a visual and functional inspection of the equipment components before it is used, ensuring that there are no signs of damage, excess wear, corrosion, abrasion, damage caused by ultraviolet radiation, cuts or improper use. Special care must be taken when inspecting straps, seams, anchoring rings, buckles, and adjusting components.
If any defects, anomalies, or damage are found in the personal protection equipment that entails a loss of protection, it must be removed from use.

CHECKS DURING USE

While using the equipment, pay special attention to any hazardous circumstances that may affect equipment performance and user safety, including the following:

The labeling on the safety components.

The negative effect of weather conditions.
“Pendulum” falls.
Effects of extreme temperatures.

Effects after contact with chemical products.
Electrical conductivity.
