2. Use
Activities that require use of this product can often be
dangerous. Therefore observe the safety notices. Please
contact our customer service if you have any doubts or nd
the information difcult to understand. Ensure that the fall
space is calculated so that in the event of a fall you do not

2.1 Intended use
This product may only be used for the purpose described
in this instruction manual (see Point 2.1.1) and only in
conjunction with tested and approved components. It must
not be combined with other components, as this could put
your safety at risk. MARK Secure 2 must be used with
Knauf system components or with similar products with the
same properties.
You may only use this product if you are physically and
mentally capable of doing so, i.e., for example, not if you
are under the inuence of drugs or alcohol, are suffering
from mental strain or have other mental or physical
impairments. In any case, the intended use as protection
against a fall from height requires full physical and mental
aptitude.
2.1.1 Purpose of the product as an anchor device
according to EN 795:2012 type A
The product may be used within the intended use conditions
on the specied wall and attachment shell systems from
Knauf Gesellschaft m.b.H., or similar products with the
same properties, for the intended purpose as protection
against a fall from height.
Note:
This product is an anchor device, the purpose of which
is to protect the user from a fall from height, either by
preventing a fall (restraint system) or by arresting a
free fall (fall arrest system).
The MARK Secure 2 anchor point is intended for use as
an anchor device in conjunction with personal protective
equipment (PPE) recommended by MARK Save A Life
GmbH (retractable fall arrest blocks, safety overalls and
connectors from MARK Save A Life).
Classed as tested accessories: Test standard
Descender and rescue devices
Lifting devices
Retractable fall arrest blocks
Guided-type fall arresters on
flexible anchor lines
Energy absorbers
Carabiners
Safety harnesses
Safety nets

If it seems unsafe to continue using this product, (see Point
8.1) you must not use it again under any circumstances.
Before every use of the product, the user must carry out
a visual inspection according to Point 7 of this manual to
ensure that the product is in serviceable condition.
2.1.2 Use of the anchor point
In order to use the anchor point, the buckle is released
from the lock and folded up. The connector of the PPE can
be suspended.
In principle, the load from a fall from height may be in any
direction protruding from the wall surface or parallel to the
wall.
The total position change of the anchor point to be
expected in the event of a fall from height (consisting of
the deformation of the metal stud partition or attachment
shell and the anchor point itself) is a maximum of 15 cm
in the event of a vertical load direction parallel to the wall
surface.
If there is a fall-related load when a person falls vertically
to the wall surface (e.g. in the event of an unintentional
redirection of the load), it must be anticipated that there will
be a total position change of the anchor point (consisting
of the deformation of the metal stud partition or attachment
shell and the anchor point itself) of a maximum of 15% of
the respective wall height.
In principle, the product may be installed at any position
of the specied Knauf or similar metal stud partitions and
attachment shells that is selected as being sensible for the
intended use.

When using the product, the user must be kitted out
with equipment that limits the maximum dynamic forces
that impact on their body during a fall arrest process to a
maximum of 6 kN.
2.2 Service life and duration of use
This product has an unlimited service life. In practice,
however, its duration of use depends on several factors.
• Extreme operating conditions, environmental factors,
contamination, damage, storage and transport can
all reduce the service life of this product.
• The product features a fall indicator, which clearly
shows whether the anchor device has been
subjected to the stress of a fall and must therefore
be disposed of as per Point 8.
• The visual and functional inspection described in
Point 7 shows every user whether the anchor device
has been deformed by a previous fall and therefore
can no longer be used.
If the anchor point buckle will no longer engage easily
in its home position or move easily from its home
position to its working position, then the anchor
device has been deformed by a previous fall and must
no longer be used.
2.3 Qualication of persons
This product may only be used by people who have read
and understood this instruction manual, or by people who
are being supervised by a trained, skilled person.
2.4. Training

training. If you are interested, please contact us:

2. Measure the separation height of the suspended
ceiling (distance between lower edge of unfinished
ceiling and upper edge of suspended ceiling).
Cut UA profile Jto this measurement.
1. Mark the position of anchor point Aon the unfinished
ceiling. In the case of grid ceilings, in each case the

8. Tighten M8 screws Hon the top and bottom
(tightening torque 27 Nm).
9. Adjust the ceiling cladding or acoustic plate, calibrate
the central point of the absorber Band cut out an
opening with a hole cutter.
If necessary, first cut out a hole roughly the size of a
coin at the calibrated position, align the hole cutter
with the central hole of the absorber Band cut out
the circular hole. Secure ceiling cladding and level
out or insert the acoustic plate.
10. Completion:
