shows the specific instruction only.
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS EN 360.
Any activity carried out at a height of more than two metres requires the use of Per-
sonal Protection Equipment (PPE) as a protection against the risk of a fall. Before ac-
cessing the work station, all the risk factors must be evaluated (environmental, con-
comitant, consequential).
0) FIELD OF APPLICATION.

3) TRACEABILITY (Fig. 4). The device includes an individual serial number (AAAA-
MM-YYYY) composed by progressive number (AAAA), month of manufacture (MM)
and year of manufacture (YYYY).
4) CHECK LIST. Before and after each use carry out the following inspection: 1)
Make sure the attachment points don't show any distortions, rust or wear. 2) Visual-
ly inspect the outer shell for cracks, deformations, burns or signs of corrosion. 3)
Check that all the screws and nuts are in place and properly tightened. 4) Check the
good condition of the mechanical splicing's. 5) Make sure the connectors lock pro-
perly and the levers move freely and efficiently. 6) Check the fall indicator. Atten-
tion! Do not use the device with the fall indicator activated (Fig. 5.13)! 7) Pull out
the line to the available length to ensure that it pays out and recoils smoothly. Check
for signs of abrasion or damage.
5) WARNINGS. The device has been designed to be used in weather conditions
that can normally be withstood by humans (operating temperature range between
-40°C and +50°C). All the materials and treatments are hypoallergenic and do not
cause skin irritation or sensitivity. During the use, it is essential for your own safety,
that the device and the anchor points are always correctly placed, and that the work
is organized in such a way, to minimize the risk of a fall from a height. Only anchor
points that comply with the EN 795 standard can be used (minimum strength 12 kN
or 18 kN for non-metallic anchors) that do not have sharp edges. Only use connec-
tors that comply with standard EN 362. Connect only to the sternal or dorsal con-
nection points EN361 of the harness.
6) INSTRUCTIONS OF USE.
The retractable fall arresters are conceived for temporary works at height and they
allow to the operator to climb to and to descend from the working site in safety,
arresting any possible fall.
6.1 - Instructions of use EN 360.
Before use: 1) Check the line return functions correctly, always holding it during the
rewinding. 2) Pull sharply the line to engage the brake. Attention! Before and during
use, consider how a safe and efficient rescue can be carried out.
Installation: 1) Connect the device to a proper anchor point conforming to EN 795.
2) Connect the lower connector to the sternal or dorsal EN 361 attachment point
of your full body harness. Attention! Only for models 8G600 and 8G700, it is
possible to use the device on the opposite side: the upper carabiner must be con-
nected to the dorsal or sternal ring of a fall arrester harness EN 361, and the lower
carabiner must be connected to an anchor point EN 795 (Fig. 6.2). 3) Verify that
the connectors employed are safely locked. 4) Make sure you always operate with
an adequate clearance underneath, in case of a fall, over the feet. 5) Consider the
pendulum effect operating the unit in non-vertical situations. 6) When the unit is used
not vertically, make sure you never risk a fall over sharp edges which can seriously
ENGLISH
damage the line or, in extreme cases, cut it. In case of doubt about the good state
of the line, require immediate servicing and do not use the device. Attention! A
full body harness EN 361 is the only body-retaining device that can be applied in
a fall arrest system. Attention! The minimum distance needed under the feet of the
operator in order to avoid the collision with the structure or the ground, in case of a
fall from a height is equal to 2,5 metres.
7) PERIODIC CHECK.
At least every 12 months (6 months for usage in the sea), a rigorous check of the
device must be carried out by the manufacturer or expert staff expressly certified by
the manufacturer. This frequency can vary depending on the frequency and intensi-
ty of usage. Performing periodic checks on a regular basis is essential to ensure the
continued efficiency and durability of the device, on which the safety of the user de-
pends. The results of the checks will be related on the appropriate sheet that is sup-
plied with every device and that must accompany the device. Warning! If the sheet
