Fall Arrest Attachment Element (D-ring) Extender

An attachment element extender is not to be attached directly to an anchorage or anchorage connector for fall
arrest. An energy absorber must be used to limit maximum arrest forces to 1800 pounds (8 kN). The length of
the attachment element extender may affect free fall distances and free fall clearance calculations.
Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death.
Pass hitchloop through back D-ring, then pull lanyard through hitchloop and pull taut. For fall arrest, always
attach other elements of a personal fall arrest system to the free D-ring at the end of the extender. Do not
attach anything to the harness back D-ring.
