WARNING
This Flexiguard System is part of a personal fall protection or rescue system. It is expected that all users be fully trained in the safe installation and
operation of the complete system. Misuse of this system could result in serious injury or death. For proper selection, operation, installation,
maintenance, and service, refer to all Product Instructions and all manufacturer recommendations, see your supervisor, or contact 3M Technical Service.
To reduce the risks associated with transporting a Flexiguard system which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death:
-
Ensure the system is properly secured or configured prior to transport. Refer to the User Instructions for detailed transportation requirements.
-
Only transport below 5 mph (8 km/h) and at inclines of 10° or less, or as outlined in the User Instructions.
-
Ensure the system will not contact overhead objects or electrical hazards while transporting or in use.
To reduce the risks associated with working with a Flexiguard system which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death:

Never work outside the safe work area as defined by the User Instructions.
-
Do not connect to the system while it is being transported or installed.
-
Always maintain 100% tie-off when transferring between anchor points on the system.
-
Use caution when installing, using, and moving the system as moving parts may create potential pinch points.
-
Ensure proper lockout/tagout procedures have been followed when applicable.
-
Only connect fall protection subsystems to the designated anchorage connection point on the system.
-
When drilling holes for assembly or installation of the system, ensure no electric lines, gas lines, or other critical materials or equipment will be
contacted by the drill.
-
Ensure that fall protection systems/subsystems assembled from components made by different manufacturers are compatible and meet the
requirements of applicable standards, including the ANSI Z359 or other applicable fall protection codes, standards, or requirements. Always
consult a Competent or Qualified Person before using these systems.
To reduce the risks associated with working at heights which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death:
-
Ensure your health and physical condition allow you to safely withstand all of the forces associated with working at height. Consult with your
doctor if you have any questions regarding your ability to use this equipment.
-
Never exceed allowable capacity of your fall protection equipment.
-
Never exceed maximum free fall distance of your fall protection equipment.
-
Do not use any fall protection equipment that fails pre-use or other scheduled inspections, or if you have concerns about the use or suitability
of the equipment for your application. Contact 3M Technical Services with any questions.
-
Some subsystem and component combinations may interfere with the operation of this equipment. Only use compatible connections. Consult
3M prior to using this equipment in combination with components or subsystems other than those described in the User Instructions.
-
Use extra precautions when working around moving machinery (e.g. top drive of oil rigs) electrical hazards, extreme temperatures, chemical
hazards, explosive or toxic gases, sharp edges, or below overhead materials that could fall onto you or the fall protection equipment.
-
Use Arc Flash or Hot Works devices when working in high heat environments.
-
Avoid surfaces and objects that can damage the user or equipment.
-
Ensure there is adequate fall clearance when working at height.
-
Never modify or alter your fall protection equipment. Only 3M or parties authorized in by 3M may make repairs to the equipment.

-
If a fall incident occurs, immediately seek medical attention for the fallen worker for the worker who has fallen.
-
Do not use a body belt for fall arrest applications. Use only a Full Body Harness.
-
Minimize swing falls by working as directly below the anchorage point as possible.
-
If training with this device, a secondary fall protection system must be utilized in a manner that does not expose the trainee to an unintended
fall hazard.
-
Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment when installing, using, or inspecting the device/system.
