WARNINGS
READ CAREFULLY SOMEONE’S LIFE DEPENDS ON IT
-The building or structure for the anchorages should be assessed by an engineer, unless it is clear to a
competent height safety installer that the structure is adequate.
-SafetyLink Height Safety Systems must only be installed as per our installation guides, to structures as
specified in the installation manual for each product.
-All safety procedures must comply in accordance with the current safety code(s) of practice(s) for working
at heights. Ensure safety at all times by being attached to suitable anchor points and approved safety
equipment or approved scaffolding.
-Installation is to be carried out by, or under the supervision of a competent height safety installer.
-To prevent galling of non-permanent or adjustable stainless-steel components use nickel anti-seize or
similar boundary layer lubricant.
-Recommended waterproofing for roof tiles: Sika Flex Co-Polymer Sealant.
-Recommended waterproofing for metal roof: Silicone Sealant Neutral Cure.
-Recommended chemical anchor: Fischer FIS-V as per Fischer Product Supplement Data sheets.
-A personal energy absorber or a fall-arrest device with a personal energy absorber must be used in
conjunction with all SafetyLink Anchorages and Lifeline systems.
-Install SafetyLink horizontal lifeline systems on roof pitches no greater than 15 degrees and across roof
pitches no greater than 25 degrees.

MAINTENANCE –PERIODIC INSPECTIONS
All items of height safety equipment which are in regular use shall be subjected to periodic inspection and
servicing.
These regular scheduled inspections and servicing must be carried out by a competent height safety installer (refer
to AS/NZS 1891.4:2009 if clarification required or contact SafetyLink).
SafetyLink Anchorages (In accordance with AS/NZS 1891.4:2009)
ALL ANCHORAGES MUST BE INSPECTED EVERY 12 MONTHS.
Procedures to be followed at inspection time:
-Visually inspect anchors for signs of deterioration.
-The FrogLine End, Intermediate and Corner anchor points have energy absorbing regions and stabilising
joins. If these energy absorbing regions are expanded this will indicate the anchor point has arrested a fall
and should be replaced. Similarly, if the stabilising joins have been broken this would also indicate the
anchor point has arrested a fall and should be replaced. (The design features of the FrogLine’s curved profile
provides the initial shock absorbing capabilities in the event of a fall. Further extension is provided in the
serpentine shapes which progressively dissipate and absorb energy whilst retaining their strength. This
lessens the force on the person falling and the structure the anchor is attached to).
-Visually inspect the components of the anchor for corrosion, superficial surface marking is permitted while
deeper corrosion or pitting would require attention.
-Manually (by hand) check the 16mm bolt securing the FrogLine Base to the Plate for rigidity and tightness.
If the Bolt can turn in the anticlockwise direction it will require attention.
-Visually inspect the attachment component of the anchorage where practically possible.
-Visually inspect the parent structure for modifications or deterioration which might lead to loss of
anchorage strength.
-Check the full length of the stainless-steel cable for any evidence of wear, cuts, looseness, extension, inter-
strand wear, corrosion, stiffness, brittleness or fraying.
-Check the integrity of cable terminations and that lifeline tensioners are correctly adjusted
(80kg/0.8kN/800N) and lock nuts are tensioned correctly.
-Check for the presence of contaminants or exposure to corrosive or extreme environment signs may include
discoloration, crystallisation or oxidation. These could significantly reduce the safe working load of the
Lifeline.
-Run the FrogLine Shuttle along the full length of the lifeline to verify its correct function.
-For Concrete Installation Only: To comply with Australian Standards, each ConcreteLink must be tested after
installation and at every recertification inspection. Ensure you wait the recommended curing time as
specified by the chemical anchor instructions. The pull test can be done using a 16mm threaded eyebolt.
Test consists of ultimate pull out force proof loading to 50% of design purpose of anchorage.
IN ADDITION TO SAFETYLINK PTY LTD EQUIPMENT, ALL ANCILLARY EQUIPMENT MUST BE INSPECTED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND THE MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS.

FROGLINE SURFACELINK –INSTALLATION
Step 1
Place the Clamps over the roofing profile and secure
each clamp with two set screws (if required to tighten
set screws located under the plate, remove bolt and
plate, tighten then replace plate).
Step 2
Ensure bolts connecting plate to the Clamps have
Loctite applied and tightened correctly.
NOTE: All bolt threads must be applied with Loctite 243 thread-locker prior to assembly. (IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before applying Loctite 243 use Loctite 7471 primer to activate the surface according to manufacturer’s
instructions).
INSPECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE STRUCTURE AND ROOF SHEETING
-Installation of anchors can only be made to roof sheeting strong enough to support the anchor point.
-MINIMUM roof sheet gauge is 0.42mm for steel and 0.7mm for aluminium.
-Roof sheets must be inspected thoroughly for splits, rust, corrosion damage and correct installation.
-Ensure the roof sheeting and structure is secured in accordance with Kingspan Insulated Roof Panel
Installation Guide.
BROWNBUILT / KLIP-LOK ROOF PROFILES
Surface Mounted Anchor systems installed on concealed fix roof types may require additional roof fixings.
Additional securing can be made to roof sheets with 12 gauge roofing screws through the roof sheeting into the
purlin/batten, four (4) above or four (4) below the anchor, on the side of the anchor that falls under two metres
from an edge. This secures the roof sheeting in place to the purlins/battens to prevent horizontal movement in
the event of a fall. Note: screws may be required on both sides of the anchor depending on the individual
situation.
Surface Mounted Anchor systems installed on concealed fix roof types may require additional roof fixings,
please check individual roof sheet type installation manuals.
FrogLine intermediate anchors must only be spaced at a maximum of 10 metres apart.
If any doubt exists as to the strength of the structure an engineer should make the assessment.
During installation you must be safe at all times.

APPENDIX A –SWAGELESS/SWAGED FITTINGS INSTALLATION
Make sure that the cable matches the terminal.
The SS terminal use only for 8mm 7x7 and 7 x 19 Stainless Wire.
Do not reuse jaws or house.
1Slide the jaw housing in place on the cable.
2Slide the jaws onto the cable, ensuring there is equal space between the jaws.
3Place the brass pressure ring on the end of the cable. Make sure that the distance from the
pressure ring to the end of the cable is 5-8mm.
4Slide the jaw housing over the jaws.
5The terminal can now be assembled. Screw the head on the jaw housing with a torque
wrench –min. 58 Nm (43Lbf ft), Tighten the lock nut with min. 50 Nm (36 Lbf ft).
Note: after the first dynamic load the terminal MUST be tightened again. When assembling
Swageless Terminals the breaking strength of the cable will be reduced by 0-15%.
The user is responsible for choosing the proper cable, and for correct assembly.

APPENDIX B –CRIMPED FITTINGS INSTALLATION
1. Insert the cable into the open end of the fitting to be swaged, mark the cable where the cable and
the fitting meet. Remove the cable and check that the mark is at least 84mm from the cable end.
2. Re-insert the cable into the fitting to distance previously marked. Start swaging the fitting from the
closed end as shown above. Continue to swage as indicated above 5 times, first swage is 6mm from
the depth indicator.
3. Ensure that you can no longer see the mark that was made in Step 1. Check the crimped sections are
within the allowable tolerances using Vernier Callipers. (Allowable tolerances = 11.10 + - 0.2mm).
IMPORTANT NOTES TO REMEMBER
Ensure marked cable as indicated in step one is a minimum of 84mm.
Ensure all crimped sections (flat) are with 11.10mm, with a tolerance level of + or - 0.2mm. This distance
should be the case of all 8mm 1x19, 7x19 and 7x7 cable. The measurement should be taken with Vernier
Callipers to ensure accuracy. If your measurements are outside the acceptable tolerance range this can be
a sign of either a loss of pressure in your swaging tool or an indication that your dies are worn or
incompatible. Any swaging that occurs outside the acceptable tolerances will need to be restarted using
the appropriately amended tools.
When swaging terminations, the mark made in step 1 will disappear during the final swage due to the
lengthening of the material during the swaging operation.
The swaged end has a mark indicating the end of the solid section (depth indicator) of the unit and the
start of the hollow section. Start swaging 6mm from the mark indicating the solid section.
When completed the swaged section should be a minimum of 80mm long. The dies are made with a 9mm
wide section to crimp. These 9mm crimping sections need to completed 5 times, leaving five flat sections
along the swaged end. In between each crimped section you need to maintain a distance of between 5 and
6mm.
DO NOT swage the solid section indicated by the mark on the unit this will damage the swaging tool and the
dies.

FROGLINE SHUTTLE
Product Code: STAT.SHUTL003
CONNECTING TO THE LIFELINE SYSTEM
1. Remove the Karabiner from the FrogLine Shuttle. The supplied Karabiner is a SafetyLink
steel trilock and needs three distinct movements to be removed from the shuttle (Slide
gate up, twist gate, depress gate).
2. Slide the inner component of the FrogLine shuttle to the right or left of the shuttle body.
This will put the two shuttle karabiner connecting holes adjacent to each other and widen
the mouth of the shuttle. The shuttle is now in the open position and can be placed face
down onto the lifeline cable.
3. To lock the shuttle onto the cable, push the inner component from its position to the right
or left back across the shuttle body. This will re-align the karabiner connection holes and
narrow the mouth of the shuttle.
4. Insert the SafetyLink Karabiner through both connecting holes. This locks the shuttle body
and inner component of the shuttle together and ensures the shuttle remains in the closed
position. Check that the Karabiner has locked correctly. The Shuttle is now secured to the
lifeline system.
5. It is a requirement when connecting a lanyard between the users harness and FrogLine
shuttle/lifeline system that a personal tear web energy absorber be used. This tear web
energy absorber needs to be at the harness end of the lanyard to ensure maximum energy
absorption.
MAKE SURE YOU ARE SAFE AT ALL TIMES WHILST ATTACHING OR DETACHING FROM THE
FROGLINE LIFELINE SYSTEM.
A FALL RESCUE PLAN SHOULD BE DEVELOPED PRIOR TO USING SAFETYLINK EQUIPMENT.
ENSURE YOU USE THE SAFETYLINK KARABINER SUPPLIED ONLY.
PROGRESSING ALONG THE LIFELINE SYSTEM
1. Always progress the system manually. Do not progress in any vehicle or motioning device.
2. When progressing towards a corner, to ensure the FrogLine Shuttle continues on a smooth path avoid cutting the
corner sharply.
3. Do not place any tools or equipment onto the lifeline system.
DISCONNECTING FROM THE LIFELINE SYSTEM
1. If you are attaching to an alternative fall arrest system, ensure you are attached to that system before
disconnecting from the FrogLine System.
2. Unlock Karabiner and detach it from the FrogLine Shuttle.
3. Slide the inner component of the FrogLine shuttle to the right or left of the shuttle body. This will put the two
shuttle karabiner connecting holes adjacent to each other and widen the mouth of the shuttle. The shuttle is
now in the open position and can be removed from the lifeline cable.
4. Slide inner component of the Shuttle into original position and insert Karabiner through the two connecting
holes to store.
REMEMBER YOU MUST BE SAFE AT ALL TIMES.
Where a risk of a fall exists on entering or exiting the lifeline system additional fall prevention measures must exist.
Where additional fall prevention exists on entry and exit the user must ensure:
1. Attachment is correctly made to the lifeline system before detaching from the additional fall prevention system.
2. DO NOT detach from the lifeline system unless correct attachment is made to the additional fall prevention
system.

A FALL RESCUE PLAN SHOULD BE DEVELOPED PRIOR TO USING SAFETYLINK EQUIPMENT.
PERSONS WORKING AT HEIGHTS SHOULD NOT WORK ALONE.
It is critical that before using any SafetyLink Systems a fall rescue plan is in place for any persons suspended mid-
air following a fall. Serious injury or death can occur in a matter of minutes, particularly if a person’s movement
or breathing is restricted or loss of consciousness has occurred. In accordance with your fall rescue plan and
appropriate first aid procedures it is essential to remove the person from the suspended position as quickly as
possible.
IN ACCORDANCE WITH AS/NZS 1891.4:2009 CLAUSE 9.5
EQUIPMENT WHICH HAS ARRESTED A FALL OR SHOWS A DEFECT
Any piece of equipment including both personal and permanently installed items, which has been used to
arrest a fall or which shows any defect during operator or periodic inspection shall be withdrawn from service
immediately and a replacement obtained if necessary. A label indicating the condition or defect should be
attached to the equipment, and it should be examined by a competent height safety installer who will decide
whether the equipment is to be destroyed or repaired if necessary and returned to service. In the latter case,
details of any repair shall be documented, and a copy given to the operator.
