SO MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. USERS SHOULD
BE FAMILIAR WITH PERTINENT REGULATIONS GOVERNING THIS
EQUIPMENT. ALL INDIVIDUALS WHO USE THIS PRODUCT MUST
BE PROPERLY INSTRUCTED ON HOW TO USE THE DEVICE. AVOID
CONTACT WITH PHYSICAL HAZARDS (THERMAL, CHEMICAL,
ELECTRICAL, ETC.). MAKE ONLY COMPATIBLE CONNECTIONS.

User Instructions must always be available to the user and are not to be removed except by the user of this equipment. For proper
use, see supervisor, User Instructions, or contact the manufacturer.
Compliant fall protection and emergency rescue systems help prevent serious injury during fall arrest. Users and purchasers of
this equipment must read and understand the User Instructions provided for correct use and care of this product. All users of this
equipment must understand the instructions, operation, limitations and consequences of improper use of this equipment and be
properly trained prior to use per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.66 and 1926.503 or applicable local standards.
Misuse or failure to follow warnings and instructions may result in serious personal injury or death.
PURPOSE
The PV-HD26226 is an anchorage connector designed to function as an interface between the anchorage and a fall protection, work
positioning, rope access, or rescue system for the purpose of coupling the system to the anchorage. Any references to “anchorage
connector” in this manual include, and apply to, the PV-HD26226.
USE INSTRUCTIONS
1. A user must be of sound mind and body to properly and safely use this equipment in normal and emergency
situations. Users must have a physician ensure they are clear of any medical conditions that may aect the proper
and safe use of this equipment in normal and emergency situations.
2. Before using a personal fall arrest system, user must be trained in accordance with the requirements of OSHA 29
CFR 1910.66 in the safe use of the system and its components.
3. Use only with ANSI/OSHA compliant personal fall arrest or restraint systems. The anchorage must have the
strength capable of supporting a static load, applied in the directions permitted by the
system, of at least 10,000-lbf (44kN) in the absence of certication.
4. The user shall be equipped with a means of limiting the maximum dynamic forces exerted on the user during the
arrest of a fall to a maximum of 8 kN (1800-lbf). In the EU these forces must be limited to 6 kN (1350-lbf.)
5. Use of this product must be approved by an engineer or other qualied person to be compatible with any and
all structural & operational characteristics of the selected installation location and system to be connected to this
anchorage connector.
6. The anchorage connector must be inspected prior to each use for wear, damage, and other deterioration. If
defective components are found the anchorage connector must be immediately removed from service in
accordance with the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.66 and 1926.502.
7. The anchorage connector should be positioned in such a way that minimizes the potential for falls and the
potential fall distance during use. The complete fall protection system must be planned (including all components,
calculating fall clearance, and swing fall) before using.
8. A rescue plan, and the means at hand to implement it, must be in place that provides the prompt rescue of users
in the event of a fall, or assures that users are able to rescue themselves.
9. After a fall occurs the anchorage connector must be removed from service and destroyed immediately.
USE LIMITATIONS: The anchorage connector shall not be used outside its limitations, or for any purpose other than that
for which it is intended.
1. The anchorage connector is designed for single user, with a capacity up to 310 lbs (140 kg) including
clothing, tools, etc.
2. The anchorage connector may only be loaded in acceptable directions shown in the LOADING CONDITIONS
DIAGRAM.
3. The anchorage connector is designed to be used in temperatures ranging from -40ºF to +130ºF (-40°C to +54°C).
4. Do not expose the anchorage connector to chemicals or harsh solutions which may have a harmful eect.
5. Do not alter or modify this product in any way.
6. Caution must be taken when using any component of a fall protection, work positioning, rope access, or rescue
system near moving machinery, electrical hazards, sharp edges, or abrasive surfaces, as contact may cause
equipment failure, personal injury, or death.
7. Do not use/install equipment without proper training by a“competent person”as defined by OSHA 29
CFR 1926.32(f).
8. Do not remove the labeling from this product.
9. Additional requirements and limitations may apply depending on anchorage type and fastening option utilized
for installation. All placements must be approved by an engineer or other qualied person.
10. This anchorage connector should not be used as part of a horizontal lifeline system that has not been designed
and or approved to be used with 10,000-lbf anchorage connectors.
11. The anchorage connector should only be used for personal fall protection and not for lifting equipment.
COMPATIBILITY LIMITATIONS
Anchorage connector must only be coupled to compatible connectors. OSHA 29 CFR 1926.502 prohibits snaphooks from being
engaged to certain objects unless two requirements are met: it must be a locking type snaphook, and it must be “designed for”
making such a connection. “Designed for” means that the manufacturer of the snaphook specifically designed the snaphook to be
used to connect to the equipment listed. The following connections must be avoided, because they can result in rollout* when a
nonlocking snaphook is used:
• Direct connection of a snaphook to horizontal lifeline.
• Two (or more) snaphooks connected to one D-ring.
• Two snaphooks connected to each other.
• A snaphook connected back on its integral lanyard.
• A snaphook connected to a webbing loop or webbing lanyard.
• Improper dimensions of the D-ring, rebar, or other connection point in relation to the snaphook dimensions that
would allow the snaphook keeper to be depressed by a turning motion of the snaphook.
*Rollout: A process by which a snaphook or carabiner unintentionally disengages from another connector or object
to which it is coupled. (ANSI Z359.0-2007)

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE LOG
Inspection:
A. Product shall be inspected by a competent person prior to each use.
B. Official periodic inspection must be made alongside the structure's TIA-222 Annex J maintenance and
condition assessment schedule. The inspection must be performed by a qualified person other than the
intended user.
1. Inspect swivel to make sure it is ush with mounting surface.
2. Make sure all labeling is axed to the unit.
3. Make sure the unit can rotate 360° and D-ring can ip from side to side.
4. When reusing a previously drilled hole, inspect for for debris or wallowing.
5. Inspection results may be recorded in the space provided above.
*If any damage that could aect the strength or operation of the device, or unsafe condi-
tions are found, proper disposal is required. The anchorage connector must be rendered
unusable and then properly discarded.
