Insert the fall arrester into the lower end of the Söll GlideLoc system guide rail (Fig. 3) or in
the recess (Fig. 4) (that should always be positioned at chest height or lower). The laterally
protruding safety pin (Pos. 1) must be on the right side and the engraved arrow must point
upwards.
The safety pin (Pos.1) together with the end stop (Pos.2) prevent the incorrect use of
the fall arrester and unintended slipping from the guide rail.
Warning:
Sliding the fall arrester beyond the end stops is allowed only
• In the areas without the risk of a fall from heights or
