They must not be used to belay persons and have
the following max. load carrying capacity (static):
Gear loop (Pic. 15-16):
2 kg max. per loop
(e.g., to transport carabiners, ascenders, aluminum
pulleys)
Tool bag attachment ring (Pic. 17)
10 kg max. per ring
(for attaching one tool bag to 2 rings each)
CAUTION! Falls can result in dynamic loads that
exceed these acceptable values (this requires ad-
ditional protection of the parts carried on them
against falling down or protection of the endangered
zones under the work site).
Lanyard Storage (Pic. 18) - only for Energy Pro
Evo: For storing the carabiner snap hooks of a con-
necting piece while this is not in use, tears in case
of strain due to falling
4. How to put on the harness correctly:
Put on the harness like a jacket
�
� Close the waist belt, the chest belt, and the leg
loops
� Adjust the leg loops, waist belts and shoulder-
straps (it should be possible to put a flat hand
between the belt and the body), the fall arrest

eyelets (designated "A") in front of the breast
bone, the holding eyelets at the front center and/
or laterally at the waist belt..
� For Energy Pro Evo only: Adjust the length of the
connecting straps between sub-pelvic strap and
leg straps to the respective work requirements
� For Energy Pro Evo only: Adjust the lateral elastic
straps (lateral connections between the front fall
arrest eyelet to the waist belt) - should be stret-
ched just loosely
5. How to select an anchor point:
According to EN 795, the anchor point (anchor de-
vice) for personal protective equipment against falls
from a height must be able to withstand a force of
12 kN and meet the requirements specified in the
user's guide of the fall protection system used. The
anchor point should always be located above the
user.
The connection between the harness and anchor
point must be suitable for the standard covering the
respective type of use and must have been certified
to it.
� Fall arrest system (e.g., energy absorber to
EN 355, guided type fall arresters to EN 353-
1/2, retractable type fall arresters to EN 360)
Restraint system (e.g., lanyards to EN 354 or
�
EN 358)
� Work positioning system (e.g., lanyards to
EN 354 or EN 358)
� Rope access system (e.g., rope adjustment
device to EN 12841, rope to EN 1891)
It is crucial to safety to select the position of the
anchor point and the way how the work is done
such that the free fall and the height of a fall are
restricted to a minimum. It is crucial to safety to
ensure prior to any work assignment that there is
enough free space at the work site under the user
(prevention of an impact on the ground or on an
obstacle).
Only a fall arrest harness may be used as the
body holding device in a fall arrest system.
Lanyards must not be placed across sharp edges!
Pendulum motions during falls must be avoided
by selecting a suitable anchor point.
