⚠

A kit equips a worker, an anchor completes the system. The harness and lanyard still need a rated anchor point, and a 6 ft energy absorbing lanyard needs roughly 18.5 ft of fall clearance below the anchor. Run the calculator below before the first tie-off.

How to Use

Follow the FallTech instruction manuals. The sequence below is an overview only.

1. Fit the harness. Don the harness, adjust the leg and chest buckles, and check the dorsal D-ring sits between the shoulder blades.
2. Connect the lanyard. Attach the lanyard snap hook to the dorsal D-ring; the free end connects to a rated anchor.
3. Verify clearance. A 6 ft energy absorbing lanyard needs roughly 18.5 ft of clearance below the anchor; run the calculator on this page.
4. Inspect before each use. Webbing, stitching, hardware, and the energy absorber pack.
5. Store it in the bag. The included bag keeps the set complete and clean between jobs.

Inspection and Retirement

Inspect the harness and lanyard before each use, with a documented competent person inspection at least annually.

• Webbing: cuts, burns, fraying, UV chalking, and chemical damage.
• Stitching: broken or pulled threads at load-bearing seams.
• Hardware: buckles, D-rings, and hooks free of cracks, corrosion, and gate defects.
• Energy absorber: pack cover intact with no deployment evidence.
• Labels: legible with serial and date recorded in the inspection log.

Retirement triggers: any fall arrest event, a deployed absorber, damaged webbing or hardware, or a failed inspection.
