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 anchor system.
When using the system in Germany, the information provided in the national
technical approval Z-14.9-789 must be observed.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:

 If using the anchor device as part of a fall arrest system, for safety reasons, before
each use it is essential to ensure the necessary clear space below the user at the
workplace, so that in case of a fall it is not possible for them to hit the ground or any
other obstruction!
 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)
+ Fully open length of the shock absorber according to its instructions for use
+ 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
cable does not come into contact with a sharp edge or any other objects which can
damage the stainless steel cable due to its deflection during a fall-arrest incident.
 If there is insufficient clear space below the user, the anchor device may only
be used with a restraint system and must be labelled accordingly. To this end,
also note and follow the instructions for use for the other personal fall protection
equipment (PFPE).
 In case of horizontal use, only use lanyards, which are suitable for this type of use and
which are tested for the applicable loading and stressing due to the corresponding
edge design.
 The anchor device may only be used by trained and instructed persons, who are
familiar with these user instructions and with handling PSA against falls from a height
and are physically and mentally suitable for the task. Health restrictions (e.g.
cardiovascular problems, medication) can endanger the safety of the system user
when working at heights.
