1.0 APPLICATIONS

1.1 PURPOSE: Hauling Kits are to be used as components in Personal Fall Protection Systems, designed to provide

mechanical advantage for raising or lowering a load. More information on hauling kits and engineered systems can be

found in NFPA 1500 and NFPA 1983. Also refer to ANSI Z359.1, Z359.4 and local governing regulations for safe rescue

operations. Hauling Kits are typically used as part of a Rescue or Controlled Descent system (see Figure 2):

AFall Arrest (AS/NZS1891.4): Personal fall arrest systems typically include a Full Body Harness and a connecting subsystem

(Energy Absorbing Lanyard, Self-Retracting Device, etc.). Maximum arresting force must not exceed 6 kN (1,349 lb). Maximum

free fall distance 2m (6.6 ft). Anchorage Strength: Selected anchorage must sustain loads of 15 kN (3,372 lb) for single person use

or 21kN (4721 lb) or greater for 2 person use.

BWork Positioning (AS/NZS1891.4): Work positioning systems typically include a Full Body Harness, positioning lanyard, and a

back-up personal fall arrest system. For work positioning applications, connect the work positioning subsystem (example: lanyard,

Y-lanyard, etc.) to the lower (hip level) side or belt mounted work positioning attachment anchorage elements (D-Rings). Never

use these connection points for fall arrest. Maximum free fall distance 0.6m (2 ft)Anchorage Strength: Selected anchorage must

sustain loads of 12 kN (2698 lb) for single person use or 18kN (4047 lb) or greater for 2 person use.

CClimbing (AS/NZS1891.3): The Full Body Harness is used as a component of a climbing system to prevent the user from falling

when climbing a ladder or other climbing structure. Climbing systems typically include a Full Body Harness, vertical cable or rail

attached to the structure, and climbing sleeve. For ladder climbing applications, harnesses equipped with a frontal D-Ring in the

sternal location may be used for fall arrest on ﬁxed ladder climbing systems. Sternal. Anchorage Strength: Structure to which the

climbing system is attached must sustain the loads required by the climbing system manufacturer’s documentation.

DRescue: Rescue systems are conﬁgured depending on the type of rescue. For limited access (conﬁned space) applications,

harnesses equipped with D-Rings on the shoulders may be used for entry and egress into conﬁned spaces where worker proﬁle is

an issue.

EControlled Descent: For controlled descent applications, harnesses equipped with a single sternal level D-Ring, one or two

frontal mounted D-Rings, or a pair of connectors originating below the waist (such as a seat sling) may be used for connection to a

descent or evacuation system.

FRestraint (AS/NZS1891.4): The Full Body Harness is used as a component of a restraint system to prevent the user from

reaching a fall hazard. Restraint systems typically include a Full Body Harness and a lanyard or restraint line.

1.2 STANDARDS: The Hauling Kits included in this manual conform to the standard(s) identiﬁed on the front cover of

this instruction. If this product is resold outside the original country of destination, the re-seller must provide these

instructions in the language of the country in which the product will be used.

1.3 TRAINING: It is the responsibility of the user and the purchaser of this equipment to assure that they are familiar with

these instructions, trained in the correct care and use of, and are aware of the operating characteristics, application limits,

and the consequences of improper use of this equipment.

1.4 LIMITATIONS: Always consider the following application limitations before using this equipment:

• CAPACITY: The Hauling Kit is rated to 59-282kg (130-620lb), minimum breaking strength of 36 kN (8093 lb). Make

sure all of the components in your system are rated to a capacity appropriate to your application.

• FREE FALL: Personal fall arrest systems used with this equipment must be rigged to limit the free fall to 2 m (6.6 ft)1.

Restraint systems must be rigged so that no vertical free fall is possible. Work positioning systems must be rigged so

that free fall is limited to 0.6 m (2 ft) or less. Personnel riding systems must be rigged so that no vertical free fall is

possible. Climbing systems must be rigged so that free fall is limited to 0.46 cm (18 in) or less. Rescue systems must

be rigged so that no vertical free fall is possible. See subsystem manufacturer’s instructions for more information.

• FALL CLEARANCE: Figure 3 illustrates the components of a Fall Arrest. There must be sufﬁcient Fall Clearance (FC)

to arrest a fall before the user strikes the ground or other obstruction. Clearance is affected by a number of factors

including: (A) Lanyard Length, (B) Lanyard Deceleration Distance or SRL Maximum Arrest Distance, (C) Harness

Stretch and D-Ring/Connector Length and Settling (typically a Safety Factor of 1 m (3.3 ft). Refer to the instructions

included with your Fall Arrest subsystem for speciﬁcs regarding Fall Clearance calculation.

• SWING FALLS: Swing Falls occur when the anchorage point is not directly above the point where a fall occurs (see Figure

4). The force of striking an object in a swing fall may cause serious injury or death. Minimize swing falls by working as

directly below the anchorage point as possible. Do not permit a swing fall if injury could occur. Swing falls will signiﬁcantly

increase the clearance required when a Self-Retracting Device or other variable length connecting subsystem is used.

• EXTENDED SUSPENSION: A Full Body Harness is not intended for use in extended suspension applications. If the

user is going to be suspended for an extended length of time it is recommended that some form of seat support be

used. 3M recommends a seat board, suspension work seat, seat sling, or a boatswain chair. Contact 3M for more

information on these items.

• ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS: Use of this equipment in areas with environmental hazards may require additional

precautions to prevent injury to the user or damage to the equipment. Hazards may include, but are not limited to;

heat, chemicals, corrosive environments, high voltage power lines, gases, moving machinery, and sharp edges.

• ENVIRONMENT: This equipment is design for use between -40° and 60°Celsius (-40 and 140° F).

1 Fall Arrest Free Falls: Free falls greater than 2 m (6.6 ft) may be permitted when users are secured to the anchorage with a connecting subsystem which limits

maximum arresting force to 6 kN (1,349 lb) and is authorized for such use (i.e., 3M Force 2™ Lanyards).

2.0 SYSTEM USE

2.1 RESCUE PLAN: When using this equipment and connecting subsystem(s), the employer must have a rescue plan and the

means at hand to implement and communicate that plan to users2, authorized persons3, and rescuers4.

2.2 INSPECTION FREQUENCY:

The Hauling Kit shall be inspected by the user before each use and by a competent person

other than the user at intervals of no more than 12 months

. Inspection procedures are described in the User Instruction

Manual’s “Inspection and Maintenance Log”. Results of each Competent Person inspection should be recorded on copies of

the “Inspection and Maintenance Log” . If the unit is dropped or impact-load during use the product should be removed from

service and inspected by a competent person immediately.

Where required by 3M, due to complexity or innovation of the equipment; or where critical knowledge is needed

in dismantling, reassembly, or assessment of the equipment, periodic examinations shall only be conducted by 3M or

persons or organizations authorised by 3M.

2.3 COMPATIBILITY OF COMPONENTS: 3M equipment is designed for use with 3M approved components and subsystems

only. Substitutions or replacements made with non-approved components or subsystems may jeopardize compatibility of

equipment and may effect the safety and reliability of the complete system.

2.4 COMPATIBILITY OF CONNECTORS: Connectors are compatible with connecting elements when they have been

designed to work together in such a way that their sizes and shapes do not cause their gate mechanisms to inadvertently

open regardless of how they become oriented. Contact 3M if you have any questions about compatibility. Connectors

(hooks, carabiners, and D-Rings) must be capable of supporting at least 22.2 kN (5,000 lb). Connectors must be

compatible with the anchorage or other system components. Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Non-

compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage (See Figure 5). Connectors must be compatible in size, shape,

and strength. If the connecting element to which a snap hook (shown) or carabiner attaches is undersized or irregular in

shape, a situation could occur where the connecting element applies a force to the gate of the snap hook or carabiner.

This force may cause the gate to open, allowing the snap hook or carabiner to disengage from the connecting point. Self-

locking snap hooks and carabiners are required.

2.5 MAKING CONNECTIONS: Use only self-locking snap hooks and carabiners with this equipment. Use only connectors that

are suitable for each application. Ensure all connections are compatible in size, shape and strength. Do not use equipment

that is not compatible. Ensure all connectors are fully closed and locked.

3M connectors (snap hooks and carabiners) are designed to be used only as speciﬁed in each product’s user’s instructions.

See Figure 6 for inappropriate connections. 3M snap hooks and carabiners should not be connected:

A. To a D-Ring to which another connector is attached.

B. In a manner that would result in a load on the gate.

C. In a false engagement, where features that protrude from the snap hook or carabiner catch on the anchor, and

without visual confirmation seems to be fully engaged to the anchor point.

D. To each other.

E. Directly to webbing or rope lanyard or tie-back (unless the manufacturer’s instructions for both the lanyard and

connector specifically allows such a connection).

F. To any object which is shaped or dimensioned such that the snap hook or carabiner will not close and lock, or that

roll-out could occur.

G. In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under load.

2.6 CONNECTING SUBSYSTEMS: Connecting subsystems (self-retracting lifeline, lanyard, rope grab and lifeline, cable sleeve,

etc.) must be suitable for your application (See section 1.1). See the subsystem manufacturer’s instructions for additional

information.

2 User: A person who performs activities at heights while protected by a personal fall protection system.

3 Authorized Person: A person assigned by the employer to perform duties at a location where the person will be exposed to a fall hazard.

4 Rescuer: Person or persons other than the rescue subject acting to perform an assisted rescue by operation of a rescue system.

5 Competent Person: One who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the surroundings or working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous,

or dangerous to employees, and who has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.

6 Inspection Frequency: Extreme working conditions (harsh environments, prolonged use, etc.)may require increasing the frequency of competent person inspec-

tions.

3.0 INSTALLATION AND USE

3.1 BEFORE EACH USE of this equipment inspect it according to the “Inspection and Maintenance Log” (Table 1).

3.2 PLAN your system before use. Consider all factors that will affect your safety during use of this equipment. The following

list gives important points to consider when planning your system:

• Anchorage: Select an anchorage capable of sustaining the Static Load requirements of the intended fall protection

application (see Section 1.1). The anchorage location should address Free Fall, Fall Clearance, Swing Fall, and

Environmental limitations described in Section 1.4.

• Sharp Edges: Avoid working where system components may be in contact with, or abrade against, unprotected

sharp edges.

• After A Fall: Components which have been subjected to the forces of arresting a fall must be removed from service

and destroyed.

• Rescue: The employer must have a rescue plan when using this equipment. The employer must have the ability to

perform a rescue quickly and safely.

• Rescue Harness: Rescue Harnesses are intended to be worn during normal work activities. Before using rescue

attachment elements for the ﬁrst time, the user should carry out a suspension test in safe conditions to ensure the

harness is sized and ﬁtted for optimal comfort during suspension.

3.3 ANCHORAGE REQUIREMENTS: The Riggersmate Hauling Kits should be attached to a suitable anchorage or anchorage

connector capable of supporting the required loads. As per AS/NZS 5532: 2013 the anchorage connector should be rated

to a minimum of 12kN for single person use and 18kN for 2 person use.

3.4 INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS:

1. Attach the Hauling Kit to a suitable anchorage connector as per section 3.3, using the connector provided

on the head unit.

2. The travel assembly end of the device can then be attached to the load using the connector provided.

3.5 RAISING:

1. Raise a load by pulling the tail end of the rope.

2. Whilst the load is being raised, the locking cam will engaged and disengaged once every revolution of the

top pulley, making a clicking sound.

3. Continue pulling the tail end of the rope until the load reaches the required position.

4. Slow release the tail end of the rope. If the rope tail tries to pull back through the device, raise the load

another 50mm to engage the locking cam.

5. The travel assembly should never be raise to interfere with the rope termination.

3.6 LOWERING:

1. To lower the load, pull on the tail end of the rope until the locking cam disengages.

2. Slowly allow the tail end of the rope be pulley back through the device by the raise load.

3. To stop lowering, pull on the tail end of the rope and raise the load 50mm to engage to locking cam.

3.7 MAKING CONNECTIONS: When using a hook to connect to an anchorage or when coupling components of the system

together, ensure roll-out cannot occur. Roll-out occurs when interference between the hook and mating connector causes

the hook gate to unintentionally open and release. Self-locking snap hooks and carabiners should be used to reduce the

possibility of roll-out. Do not use hooks or connectors that will not completely close over the attachment object. See

subsystem manufacturer’s instructions for more information on making connections.

3.8 OVER-SPEED LOCK: All Riggersmate Hauling Kits are equipped with an internal over-speed lock. If at any point during

operation the load becomes uncontrolled or the tail end of the rope released, this feature will automatically lock and

prevent the load from falling to the ground. If the over-speed lock is activated, follow the lowering procedure, section

3.6, to continue operation. As soon as possible after an over-speed lock the unit shall be inspected as per section 5 of this

manual. Do not continue to use this product after an over-speed lock unless completing a rescue.

4.0 INSPECTION

4.1 INSPECTION FREQUENCY: The Hauling Kit must be inspected at the intervals deﬁned in Section 2.2. Inspection

procedures are described on the “Inspection and Maintenance Log” (Table 1).

4.2 DEFECTS: If inspection reveals a defective condition, is deemed unsuitable for use by a competent person or has been

involved in a fall, remove unit from service immediately and destroy.

4.2 PRODUCT LIFE: The functional life of Hauling Kit is determined by work conditions and maintenance. As long as the

product passes inspection criteria, it may remain in service for up to 10 years from the date of manufacture.

5.0 MAINTENANCE, SERVICING, STORAGE

5.1 CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS: Clean the Rollgliss Technical Rescue Hauling Kit as follows:

A) Wash Haul Kits in clean water only. Attention should be given to the locking cam and cam follower to ensure any

grit is removed and they are moving smoothly. If you need to remove grit or more stubborn dirt and grime that often

causes stiffness in the operation of the cam, a light cleaning agent such as WD40 or equivalent may be used. When

a cleaning agent is used, ensure that all remnants are washed off and that the cleaning agent does not come into

contact with the rope.

B) After washing, dry the unit with a soft cloth and hang the rope in a well ventilated area out of direct sunlight, to

allow for proper drying.
