height". Maximum lanyard length is 2 m (6.5 ft).
The maximum permissible fall height for lan-
yard (tether strap) must not exceed 2 m (6.5 ft).
2. Use only with lanyards appropriate for this tool
type and rated for at least 7.0 kg (15.4 lbs).
3. Do not anchor the tool lanyard to anything on
your body or on movable components. Anchor
the tool lanyard to a rigid structure that can
withstand the forces of a dropped tool.
4. Make sure the lanyard is properly secured at
each end prior to use.
Inspect the tool and lanyard before each use
5.
for damage and proper function (including
fabric and stitching). Do not use if damaged or
not functioning properly.
6. Do not wrap lanyards around or allow them to
come in contact with sharp or rough edges.
Fasten the other end of the lanyard outside
7.
the working area so that a falling tool is held
securely.
Attach the lanyard so that the tool will move

away from the operator if it falls. Dropped tools
will swing on the lanyard, which could cause injury
or loss of balance.
Do not use near moving parts or running

machinery. Failure to do so may result in a crush
or entanglement hazard.
10. Do not carry the tool by the attachment device
or the lanyard.
11. Only transfer the tool between your hands
while you are properly balanced.
12. Do not attach lanyards to the tool in a way that
keeps guards, switches or lock-offs from oper-
ating properly.
13. Avoid getting tangled in the lanyard.
14. Keep lanyard away from the cutting area of the
tool.
15. Use multi-action and screw gate type carabineers.
