3.1 PLANNING: Plan your fall protection system prior to installation of the Toggle Anchor. Account for all factors that may
affect your safety before, during and after a fall. Consider all requirements, limitations and specifications defined in
Section 2 and Table 1.
;
The Saflok Toggle Anchor should not be used in hollow block, grout, stone, wood, or other substrates. Do not use in
®
wet or uncured concrete. The Toggle Anchor should never be pulled at an angle greater than 90 degrees.
3.2 PREPARING TO INSTALL THE TOGGLE ANcHOR: To ensure effective installation of the Saflok
observe the requirements defined and refer to Installation Requirements and the corresponding figure.

PERFORM THE FOLLOWING STEPS TO PREPARE FOR INSTALLING THE TOGGLE ANcHOR:
1. Mark the mounting hole location for the Toggle Anchor. Adhere to the material and location Installation Requirements.
2. Drill a 19.05 mm (3/4 inch) or 20 mm (0.79 inch) diameter hole through the mounting material at the location
marked in Step 1.
;
If the Toggle Anchor will be secured in an existing hole, always inspect the hole for deformation, correct
material thickness, and correct hole diameter prior to installation.
;
Before drilling holes, inspect the hole location to prevent drilling into power transmission cables or other live
utilities.
;
When installing in pre-cast concrete, ensure the mount structure is free of cracks or damage.
3.3 TO INSTALL THE TOGGLE ANcHOR: Refer to Figures 7, 8, 9 according to the anchoring material. Figure 7 is the Steel
Flange, Figure 8 is the Pre-Cast Concrete, and Figure 9 is the Pre-Cast Hollow Core Concrete.
1. With your thumb inserted through the Swivel Ring and two fingers under the Hole Plug, squeeze the Spring until the
Hole Plug is fully retracted.
2. Insert the Toggle Anchor through the mounting hole and release the Hole Plug. The Hole Plug should seat in the
inside wall of the mounting hole. Reference Figure 10 for Hole Plug detail.

3. Pull the Swivel Ring to ensure the Toggle is activated and the Toggle Anchor is secured in the mounting hole.
Reference Figure 11 for Red Warning Tube detail.
;
Always inspect the Activator Cable and Red Warning Tube after installation (see Figure 11). If the top of the
Activator Cable (A) is positioned adjacent to the Red Warning Tube (B), the Toggle has not flipped into the secure
position. If the Toggle is not secured; repeat installation steps, but push down on the top of the Activator Cable
after releasing the Hole Plug to help the toggle flip into the secure position.
