Intended Use (Fig. I)

- This shock absorbing lanyard is primarily used to connect to a suitable anchorage as part of a fall arrest system.

Usage Limitations

WARNING: Fall arrest gear is designed to arrest a fall from height ONLY ONCE! If subjected to an arrested fall, the gear must be withdrawn from service and rendered unusable.

• Manual-locking or self-closing gates should only be used where the user does not have to attach and remove the connector frequently, i.e. many times during a working day
• This equipment is designed for use by one person with a combined total weight no greater than 140kg, including clothing, tools, and other user borne objects
• Acidic, alkaline, or other environments with harsh substances may damage the hardware of the karabiner. DO NOT expose the karabiner to corrosive environments for prolonged periods of time. Organic substances and salt water are particularly corrosive to metal parts
• Do not use in environments with temperatures lower than -40^ / -40^ or greater than 80^ / 176^
• Avoid contact with rough, abrasive surface, sharp edges, cutting tools etc.
• Equipment must be shielded when used near welding, metal cutting, or other activities that produce large amounts of heat
• Use extreme CAUTION when working near energised electrical sources. Metal hardware conducts electric current. Maintain a safe working distance (at least 3m) from all electrical hazards
• A full body harness is the only acceptable body holding device that can be used in a fall arrest system
• Never exceed a total sub-system length of 2m with an energy absorber, including lanyard, terminations and connectors
• Never use a lanyard for fall arrest purposes without an Energy Absorber (3)
  • Always minimise the amount of slack in the lanyard near a fall hazard
  • Always move to an area where there is no fall hazard to adjust the lanyard length
• Never use separate lanyards each with energy absorbers parallel to each other in a fall arrest system. Otherwise, they may become entangled and prevent the Energy Absorbers from functioning

Unpacking your Product

• Carefully unpack and inspect your product. Fully familiarise yourself with all its features and functions
• Ensure all parts of the product are present and in good condition. If any parts are missing or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this product

Before Use

Pre-use checks

• An inspection must be carried out before every use. All parts of the gear must be inspected in an area with appropriate light conditions
• Check correct function of Karabiner (2) and Scaffold Hook (1), and smooth operation of their safety mechanisms
• Check the Lanyard (4), Rope Thimble (5) and the Energy Absorber (3) including its protective sheath for damage

Note: Refer to the 'Maintenance' section for further advice on inspection and fault conditions.

- If the risk assessment shows that loading over an edge is possible, take appropriate precautions to ensure safe use of the Lanyard

Connecting to other fall arrest system components

⚠ WARNING: Karabiners and other connectors must ALWAYS be used with the gate closed and securely locked

- When used as part of a fall arrest system, connect to dorsal attachment point of harness, combined with a suitable shock absorber

Clearance

Fall clearance (Fig II):

- Before use, it is essential to verify the clearance required beneath the user. This clearance must be sufficient to prevent the user from hitting the ground or another obstacle, in the event of a fall

Swing falls (Fig. III):

WARNING: The force of striking an object in a swing fall may cause serious injury or death.
- Swing falls occur when the anchorage is not located directly above the point where a fall occurs
- Minimise swing falls by working as close as possible to the anchorage
- DO NOT enter a situation where a swing fall could occur, if it is likely to result in an injury

Note: The risk of swing falls significantly increases the clearance required when using a self-retracting lifeline or another variable length connecting system.

WARNING: When connectors are poorly positioned, the attachment D-rings could act as a lever on the gate of a karabiner and subsequently damage it when sudden tension comes on to the rope. ALWAYS ensure connectors remain safely positioned during use.

Anchorage requirements (Fig. IV)

• According to EN795 the minimum strength of any anchorage is 10kN
• Check anchorage for signs of deterioration
• Like all fall arrest gear, anchorages must be subjected to regular inspections through a competent person. Inspect at least once every three months, and record findings in a dedicated service record
• Check that the karabiner is the correct size for the anchorage to be used. If the karabiner is too small, use an anchor sling to connect to the anchorage

Anchorage position

- The anchorage of the system should preferably be located above the user's position

Use as part of a fall arrest system

• Anchorages selected for fall arrest systems should be capable of sustaining a static load, applied in the directions permitted by the system of at least:
  • 22kN for non-certified anchorages, or
• 2 x the maximum arrest force for certified anchorages
• If more than one system is attached to one anchorage, the required strength shall be multiplied by the number of systems attached

Compatibility

- This karabiner is compatible with miscellaneous fall arrest systems and safety gear, including but not limited to the following Silverline products:

• Fall Arrest Harness
  • Restraint & Fall Arrest Harness

Notes:

• Connecting hardware must be compatible in size, shape, and strength. Non-compatible connectors may accidentally disengage and lead to serious injury or even death
• Only use connectors, such as D-rings, snaphooks, karabiners and other equipment with a minimum rating of 22kN
• ALWAYS take the length of the karabiner (see 'Specification') into consideration, when planning the layout of a fall arrest system, as it will influence the total length of the fall

WARNING: Always verify that the connecting karabiner and the D-ring on the harness or anchorage connector are compatible

Operation

Note: This equipment must ONLY be used by competent operators. All users must be trained in its safe use. Inexperienced users must receive instruction prior to using this equipment. A risk assessment must be carried out before undertaking any operations requiring fall arrest equipment.
WARNING: ALWAYS wear personal protective equipment appropriate for the work area and type of activity, including but not limited to eye protection, gloves, hard hat, protective shoes and hearing protection.

Opening and closing the screw gate Karabiner

• To open, turn the knurled locking sleeve anticlockwise until the gate opens
- Push the gate inwards to open the karabiner
- To close, release the mechanism, let the gate return to its closed position, and turn the knurled locking sleeve all the way clockwise, into the locked position

WARNING: This karabiner must ALWAYS be used with the Gate closed and fully locked. To check whether the Gate is securely locked, ensure that the Locking Sleeve has been turned clockwise all the way, so it prevents the Gate from opening when pushed.

Opening and closing the Scaffold Hook

1. Push the locking lever (see Fig. V: "1") towards the hook's spine

2. The gate (see Fig. V: "2") is now unlocked and can be pushed in to open

3. Release gate and locking lever to close

WARNING: This scaffold hook must ALWAYS be used with the gate closed and fully locked! To check whether the gate is securely locked, try pushing the gate open from the outside; it must not open without the locking lever being operated first.

Making connections (see Fig. IV & VI)

WARNING: Never apply multiple loads to a single karabiner.

- When using a karabiner to connect to an anchorage, or when connecting components of a fall arrest system together, ensure that accidental disengagement ('rollout') cannot occur

Note: Rollout is possible when interference between a karabiner and the mating connector causes the karabiner's gate or keeper to accidentally open and release.

- DO NOT use connectors that will not completely close over the anchor point

• DO NOT make knots in a lanyard

• DO NOT hook a lanyard back on to itself

• DO NOT attach two or more karabiners to each other

• DO NOT attach two or more karabiners into one D-ring

• DO NOT attach karabiners directly to a horizontal lifeline

• DO NOT choke hitch the lanyard

⚠ WARNING: ALWAYS follow the manufacturer's instructions supplied with each system component.

Proper alignment of the Karabiner under load

- The karabiner must be installed so that the loads are applied in the area designed for greatest strength (see marking on the product and Fig. VII)

- The anchorage or anchorage connector should be seated in the radius of the Karabiner opposite the gate

• DO NOT apply loads across the Gate (Fig. VI)

- The karabiner must be able to move freely and without interference during use. ANY constraint or external pressure is DANGEROUS (Fig. VI)

- Be aware that some equipment combinations may reduce the effective strength of the karabiner (e.g. when connecting to wide straps)

Note: Regularly check connections with other equipment in the system during use, and ensure various system components are correctly positioned with respect to each other. This may save your life!

Rescue plan

WARNING: A suitable and sufficient risk assessment must be carried out before commencing with any kind of work at height, or any work that requires the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) as a control measure.

- The user must have a rescue plan and the means at hand to implement it

- The plan must take into account the equipment and special training necessary to effectively conduct prompt rescue under all foreseeable conditions

Accessories

• Additional fall arrest equipment, workwear and other personal protection equipment is available from your Silverline stockist

Maintenance

Note: All fall arrest equipment must be regularly inspected, cleaned and maintained by a competent person, in accordance with local laws and regulations. Maintenance must be recorded in a dedicated service record (see end of this manual).

⚠ WARNING: Carry out a visual and tactile inspection of all components, every time the equipment is used. Carry out a detailed examination if the equipment has not been used for some time.

Note: A thorough, detailed examination of the equipment must be carried out at regular intervals, at least once annually, or more frequently depending on use.

WARNING: It is ILLEGAL to carry out any kind of repair or modification to fall arrest equipment. WARNING: Should any damage be detected, remove the equipment from service immediately. It must then be rendered unusable and discarded.

Inspection procedure

- The following procedure helps detect defects potentially resulting in degradation and/or weakening of the Karabiner (2) and Scaffold Hook (1):

1. Inspect for missing or altered parts. Refer to the image in 'Product Familiarisation' for identification. Verify each item is present and has not been tampered with

2. Inspect the entire karabiner or hook for cracks, nicks or breaks in the metal. Inspect every millimetre

Note: If necessary, clean before inspection, to be able to detect even small hairline cracks.

1. Inspect for deformation, bent or dented parts. Open the gate and inspect the nose of the karabiner or hook for signs of wear, distortion or damage

2. Inspect the metal surface for any signs of corrosion. Steel karabiners and hooks may show red dust as evidence of corrosion, aluminium karabiners may develop pitting or scales

3. Inspect for heat damage, which can usually be seen as discoloration or darkening of the metal surfaces

4. Perform a functional test: The locking mechanism must function easily, and the karabiner or hook must fully open and close smoothly and easily. When locked, the gate MUST NOT open under pressure from any direction

- Slowly pass the rope through your hands to detect small defects, abrasions and twist damage. Feel for softening and hardening of fibres and look for ingress of contaminants

- The following defects potentially result in degradation and/or weakening of the lanyard:

- Cut/broken fibres or nicks

- Kinks, knots (other than those intended by the manufacturer) or hockling (unravelling due to constant turning of the rope in the same direction, or due to shock loading)

• Brittle, fuzzy or worn fibres, fraying or abrasions

• Overall deterioration or discolouration

• Any kind of modification/attempted repairs

- Hard or shiny spots, fused fibres or strands

- Heat or friction damage indicated by fibres with a glazed appearance which may feel harder than surrounding fibres

- Burnt, charred or melted fibres or strands

- Change in diameter, compared to the original diameter (see 'Specification')

- Rope marked with paint or a permanent marker

- Loose, missing, deformed or damaged Rope Thimble (5)

- Eye damage (cuts, nicks, fraying, fusing, abrasion etc.)

• Damage to protective covers/sleeves/sheaths

- Splices starting to unravel, or showing signs of damage or deterioration

- Partially deployed energy absorber (e.g. short pull-out of tear webbing)

- Damage to stitching

- Chemical attack potentially resulting in local weakening and softening (often indicated by flaking of the surface)

- UV-degradation which is difficult to identify, particularly visually, but there may be some loss of colour (if dyed) and a powdery surface

- Contamination (e.g. with dirt, grit, sand etc.) which may result in internal or external abrasion

- Damaged, oxidised or deformed fittings (e.g. karabiners, screw link connectors, scaffold hooks)

- Inspect all other components or subsystem of the fall arrest equipment according to manufacturer's instructions

- Record inspection date and results in a dedicated service record (see end of this manual)

Note: Refer to 'Service life and product obsolescence' if any damage or other defects are detected during inspection.
