and 3/16" galvanized wire cable/1" Polyseter Webbing. SRL also comes with a Karabiners and tag line to be used with the device
to avoid improper use.
9. PRODUCT APPLICATION INFORMATION: The SRL is used in a stationary or mobile manner. As a stationary device, the SRL would be
mounted to an approved xed anchorage connector directly overhead. The SRL would extend as the user moves away from the anchor
point and it retracts as the user moves back towards the anchorage point. As the SRL is used in a mobile manner, the device should be
traveling on a steel cable, rope or xed rail traveling from one anchorage connector to the other.
10. LIMITATIONS: Consider the following application limitations before using this equipment.
ŸCapacity: The SRL is to be used by an individual with a combined weight (person, clothing, tool, etc.) of 90 lbs.(41 kg) minimum
and no more than 310 lbs.(140 kg) maximum. No more than one person may be connected at one time.
ŸCorrosion: Leaving the SRL in an environment for long periods of time that could cause corrosion of metal parts is not warranted
in any way and must not be done. Use caution when working around corrosive compounds such as ammonia, sewage,
fertilizers, seawater or other corrosive environments. when using in such environment the product may require more frequent
inspections or servicing. These increased inspections and servicing are required to ensure corrosive damage is not impacting
the performance of the SRL.
ŸChemical Hazards and Heat: Extreme caution must be taken when working in or around environments containing acid or
caustic chemicals, particularly at elevated temperatures. Damage will result to in this environment. Chemical damage is difcult
to detect and it is recommended that the lifeline be replaced periodically to ensure safety of the workers.Additionally, this SRL is
not to be used in high temperature environments. The SRL must be protected when using near welding, metal cutting, or similar
activities. Hot sparks and slag can damage this equipment. Users must inspect SRL prior to each use.
Ÿ Electrical Hazards: For web and wire rope models, there is a possibility of an electric current owing through the lifeline.
Moisture absorbed by the lifeline may provide a path for electrical current to ow, resulting in electrical shock. Use caution where
the lifeline may contact high voltage power line.
Ÿ Locking Speed: Extreme caution should be taken when using this device whereas an obstructed fall could occur as well as when
someone must perform work in a conned or cramped space. Working in these types of environments could limit the speed at
which the locking mechanisms engage. Extreme caution should be taken when working on low pitched roofs, where a worker
may slide instead of fall. A clear path is required to ensure positive locking of the SRL.

16. PERSONAL FALL ARREST INFORMATION:
Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS): Personal fall arrest systems used with this equipment must meet applicable state, federal, OSHA,
and ANSI requirements. A full body harness must be worn when this equipment is used as a component of a personal fall arrest system.
As required by OSHA, the personal fall arrest system must be capable of arresting the user's fall with a maximum arresting force of
1,800 lbs., and limit the free fall to six feet or less.
WARNING:
Do not alter or intentionally misuse this equipment. Consult with TheHarnessDepot when using this equipment
incombination with components or subsystems other than those described here in this manual and or other information.
Use caution when using this equipment around moving machinery, electrical and chemical hazards, and sharp edges.

15. OPERATION, USE AND PLAN:
ŸAnchorage: The anchorage to which the SRL is attached must sustain static loads applied in the directions permitted by the fall
arrest system of at least 3,600 lbs. with certication of a qualied person, or 5,000 lbs. without certication. Refer to OSHA and
ANSI for specic denition. This device is only to be used by one person. When more than one personal fall arrest system is
attached to the same structure, the strength requirements stated above must be multiplied by the number of personal fall arrest
systems attached to the structure.
ŸHorizontal Systems and Tripods: In applications where the SRL is used in conjunction with a horizontal system or with
Megapod, ensure the support structure and or the horizontal system components are compatible.
ŸHorizontal systems must be designed and installed under the supervision of a qualied engineer.
Ÿ Anchorage Selection: Select an anchorage point capable of support is at least 5,000 lbs. Additionally, select a location for
anchorage of the SRL that will avoid a free fall and swing fall hazards. To prevent an increased free fall distance, do not work
above the anchorage location.
ŸFree Fall: Avoid slack in the line and do not lengthen the SRL by connecting a lanyard or other snap hooks directly to the
retractable.
ŸDo not use this device at or below your feet. This will increase your free fall distance beyond the allowable limits set by OSHA and
exceed the capabilities of the SRL to safely arrest a fall
Ÿ Swing Falls: Swing fall will occur when the anchorage point is not directly over the head of the worker or directly above the point
where a fall occurs. The force of striking an object in a swing fall may cause serious injury including death. Minimize swing falls
by working as directly below the anchorage point as possible. In all situations where a swing fall can occur, the likelihood of an
injury can occur. Please contact TheHarnessDepot Fall Protection if you have questions on a particular application involving
one of our retractable.
Ÿ Fall Clearance: Ensure that there is always adequate clearance in the path of a fall to avoid striking an object or lower level. A
minimum of six feet from the working level to the lower level or nearest obstruction is recommended as long as the SRL is
attached directly over head of the worker and the worker is not in danger of insult as a result of a swing fall hazard.
ŸSharp Edges: Unprotected and sharp edges can damage the lifeline. Please make sure to avoid working where this can occur
and provide protection where possible. A TheHarnessDepot manufactured energy absorbing device can be added to aid in
reducing the impact forces on the entire device. For more details contact TheHarnessDepot.
16. INSPECTION OF SELF RETRACTING LIFELINES:
ŸBefore each use of this equipment inspect it according to the following guidelines: A formal inspection of fall protection
products/components must be performed at least every six months by a competent person other than the user. The frequency of
formal inspections should be based on conditions of use or exposure. Record the inspection results in the inspection and
maintenance log at the end of this manual. OSHA 1910.66, OSHA 1926.502 and ANSI Z359.14 requires an inspection of
equipment before each use. Before using this equipment, record the serial number information from the label in the inspection
and maintenance log at the end of this manual.
ŸAnnually: ANSI requires a formal inspection of the SRL be completed by a competent person other than the user at least twice a
year. More formal and frequent inspections may be required based upon the severity and environmental conditions of the
workplace. TheHarnessDepot Retractable, unless otherwise marked, are required to be recertied every two years from the
date of rst use.
WARNING:
If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, remove the product from service and send product back to
TheHarnessDepot authorized service center.
10

ŸAfter a Fall Arrest: Inspect the impact indicator on the snap hook of the SRL and look for an exposed red color band. Do not
attempt to reset the impact indicator. Remove the retractable from service immediately and return to TheHarnessDepot or an authorized
repair center. If using a retractable with a webbed lifeline, then inspection of the shock pack is required. Remove retractable from
service if there are any deformation, elongation or other signs of the shock pack being torn or deployed. If inspection reveals an
unsafe condition, remove unit from service immediately and destroy, or contact an authorized service center for repair.
ŸInspecting The Self Retracting Lifeline:
STEP 1: Inspect for loose screws and bent or damaged parts.
STEP 2: Inspect housing for distortion, cracks or other damage Ensure
the swivel eye is not damaged or distorted in anyway. Make sure
the swivel eye turns freely.
STEP 3: The lifeline must fully extend and retract without hesitation or
creating a slack line condition.
STEP 4: Ensure the device locks up when lifeline is jerked sharply.
STEP 5: Ensure the labels must be present and fully legible with
inspection log information completed.
STEP 6: Look for signs of corrosion on the entire unit.
STEP 7: Wire rope inspection must include identifying cut kinks, broken
wires, bird-caging, corrosion, welding splatter, chemical
damage, or severely abraded areas. Check all thimbles etc…
for excessive wear including cracks or separation of metal
components.
STEP 8: Webbed lifeline inspection must include identifying frayed
strands, broken webbing, burns, cuts, and abrasions. Inspect
for excessive heat, paint build-up, soiling rust, or chemical
damage indicated by brown or discolored areas.
STEP 9: Inspect connecting hooks or Karabiners for signs of damage,
corrosion or excessive wear.
STEP 10: Record inspection results in the inspection and maintenance
log found in this manual. Clearly check off month the SRL was
inspected on the label of the housing.
17. CABLE INSPECTION: When inspecting SRL's that utilize cable lifelines, it is critical
to look for the following damages and deterioration that will result in malfunction of
the unit and potentially unsafe conditions.
Ÿ Crushing: The cable will often get crushed or bent while being used on a job
site. Cable that is crushed or bent will damage the retractable and thus the
unit should be immediately taken out of service and returned to
TheHarnessDepot or authorized repair center.
ŸCutting: Movement over sharp edges or other objects while the cable is under tension results in damaged strands and broken
wires. If, through inspection of the retractable lifeline prior to each use, it is found to have any broken strand, immediately remove
from service and return to TheHarnessDepot or an authorized repair center.
ŸAbrasion: Abrasion can result from normal wear. Particular attention must be paid to the outer wire strands as they with each
use, it is found have damage or deterioration from abrasion, immediately remove from service and return to TheHarnessDepot or an
authorized repair center.
ŸKinking: Any deformation in the cable whereas the lifeline appears to be bent, requires the retractable to be immediately removed
from service and returned to TheHarnessDepot or an authorized repair center.
ŸCorrosion, Arc or Heat Damage: Extreme caution must be taken to avoid any potential damage as a result of using a retractable
within an environment where corrosive compounds, welding, or high heat may exist. Corrosive damage could cause the cable to
crack. Welding damage would result in fused wires and thus change the characteristics of the strength with regards to the wire. If
the retractable is used in these environments, the retractable lifeline needs to be closely examined for damage.
18. PLAN THE FALL PROTECTION SYSTEM: Before installation plan your system. 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:
ŸAnchorage: Select a rigid anchorage capable of supporting the loads no less than 5,000 lbs per worker attached.
ŸSharp Edges: Avoid working where system components may be in contact with, or abrade against, unprotected sharp edges.
11

ŸAfter a Fall: Components which have been subjected to the forces of arresting a fall must be removed from service and
destroyed. Retractable must be returned for servicing to TheHarnessDepot or an authorized repair center.
ŸRescue: The employer must have a rescue plan when using this equipment. The employer must have the ability to perform
rescue quickly and safely.
19. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS: The following requirements outline the proper installation procedures to be followed
ŸLocation:
ŸSelect a location on an appropriate strength anchorage that will provide overall safety and proper loading. The anchorage
must be free of deformities or defects that may weaken the structure. The anchorage to which the SRL is attached must be
capable of sustaining static load in the directions applied by the personal fall arrest systems of at least 3,600 lbs. with
certication of a qualied person, or 5,000 lbs. without certication.
ŸWhen more than one person is attached to the same structure, the strength requirements stated above must be multiplied
by the number of personal fall arrest systems.
ŸDo not work above the anchorage point. While using an SRL, always ensures that there is constant tension on the cable.
Slack in the cable could result in an increase in fall distance. Movenormally as sudden jerky movements will allow the
locking mechanism to engage.
ŸDo not install in an area where a swing fall hazard potentially could exist. Failure to do so can result in injury or
possibly death.
ŸKeep these instructions for reference.
