WARNING
All persons using this equipment must
read, understand and follow all instruc-
tions. Failure to do so may result in se-
rious injury or death. Do not use this
equipment unless you are properly
trained.
It is crucial that the authorized person/user
of this equipment read and understand these
instructions. In addition, federal law requires
employers to ensure that all users are trained
in the proper installation, use, inspection, and
maintenance of fall protection equipment. Fall
protection training should be an integral part
of a comprehensive safety program.
Proper use of fall arrest systems can save
lives and reduce the potential of serious inju-
ries from a fall. The user must be aware that
forces experienced during the arrest of a fall
or prolonged suspension may cause bodily in-
jury. Consult a physician if there is any ques-
tion about the user's ability to use this product.
Pregnant women and minor children must not
use this product.
1.0 Purpose
Honeywell Industrial Safety offers a wide array
of full-body harnesses for every application.
While full-body harnesses may be used
for positioning, travel restraint and rescue,
they are the only acceptable form of body
wear for fall arrest. Harness designs offer
superior safety and functionality with features
developed to meet key user needs, such as
comfort, fit, ease-of-use, style, durability,
compliance, flexibility and convenience.

WARNING
Always use a full-body harness for fall
arrest. Body belts may be used for po-
sitioning and travel restraint only.
2.0 General Fall Protection
Requirements
2.1 General Requirements
The user's organization shall retain the
manufacturer's instructions and make them
readily available to all users.
All authorized
reference the
occupational safety, as well as applicable
ANSI or CSA standards. Please refer
to product labeling for information on
specific OSHA regulations, and ANSI and
CSA standards met by product.
It is essential that the users of this type
of equipment receive proper training and
instruction, including detailed procedures for
the safe use of such equipment in their work
application. ANSI/ASSE Z359.2, Minimum
Requirements for a Managed Fall Protection
Program, establishes
requirements for an employer's managed fall
protection program, including policies, duties,
and training; fall protection procedures;
eliminating and controlling fall hazards;
rescue procedures; incident investigations;
and evaluating program effectiveness.
Full-body harnesses which meet OSHA and
current ANSI/ASSE and CSA standards are
intended to be used with other components of a
Personal Fall Arrest System that limit maximum
arrest forces to 1800 lbs (8kN) or less.
Proper precautions should always be taken to
remove any obstructions, debris, material, or
other recognized hazards from the work area
that could cause injuries or interfere with the
operation of the system.
Always check for obstructions below the work
area to make sure potential fall path is clear.
Allow adequate fall clearance below the work
surface.
To minimize the potential for accidental
disengagement, a competent person must
ensure system compatibility.
