Safety Instructions - ST Quadrat LUX-top FSE 2003 Instructions De Montage Et D'utilisation

Introduction
Before installing the anchor device, the load-bearing capacity of the roof /
substructure must be checked. In case of doubt seek the advice of a structural
engineer! The technical building regulations must be complied with. No
modifications are allowed to the anchor device and only original parts may be
used with the LUX-top
When using the system in Germany, the information provided in the national
technical approval Z-14.9-789 must be observed.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:

• When using the anchor device as part of a fall arrest system, for safety reasons it is
essential to ensure the necessary clearance below the user at the workplace before
each use, so that in case of a fall it is not possible for the user to hit the ground or any
other obstacle!
• During the fall of a person secured to the
resulting deformation/deflection of the anchor device (up to 2.5 m with a
recommended distance of 10 m between the anchor points - exact values can be
obtained from the manufacturer) must be considered for the fall arrest distance.
The minimum clear space required below the system user is calculated from:
Deformation/deflection of the anchor device (up to 2.5 m)
+ Tear length of the energy absorber according to its instructions for use
respective PFPE)
+ Elongation of the lanyard due to extension
+ Displacement of the full body harness on the body
+ Height of the user
+ safety clearance of 1.0 m
• The anchor device must be installed and used in such a way that the stainless steel
rope does not come into contact with a sharp edge or any other objects which can
damage the stainless steel rope due to its deflection during a fall-arrest incident.
• If there is insufficient clearance below the user, the anchor device may only
be used with a restraint system and must be labelled accordingly. For this
purpose, also observe the instructions for use of the other personal fall protection
equipment (PFPE).
• For horizontal use, only lanyards that are suitable for this type of application and
which are tested for the load due to the corresponding edge design may be used.
• The anchor device may only be used by trained and instructed persons, who are
familiar with these user instructions and the handling of personal fall protection
equipment and are physically and mentally suitable for the task. Health restrictions
(e.g. cardiovascular problems, taking medication) can endanger the safety of the
system user when working at heights.
