System Compatibility
Vi-Go Vertical Cable Lifeline Systems are designed for
use with Miller approved components. Substitution or
replacement with non-approved component combina-
tions, sub-systems, or both, may affect or interfere
with the safe function of each other and endanger the
compatibility within the system. This incompatibility
may affect the reliability and safety of the total system.
Vi-Go Systems must be used in conjunction with a
Vi-Go Cable Sleeve with auto-locking carabiner (or
other Miller approved connector) and a Miller full-body
harness equipped with a front attachment point desig-
nated for ladder climbing.
[NOTE: All instructions and warnings provided with
the cable sleeve, connector and harness must be read
and understood before using the equipment.]
System Capacity
A maximum of four users may simultaneously be
connected to a Vi-Go Vertical Cable Lifeline System so
long as the load-bearing capacity of the base structure
is adequate. For Vi-Go Systems using the 10 ft. (3m)
top bracket assembly, the number of users is limited to
two.
The distance between users must not be less than
5-1/4 ft. (1.6m) to ensure that, in the event of a fall,
the person falling will not strike a user below. (Note:
According to ANSI A14.3, only one worker may be on
the system between cable guides.)
Fall Clearance
Ensure that adequate clearance exists in the fall path
to avoid striking a lower level, some other object, or
another user.
2.2 System Warnings and Limitations
Environmental Hazards
Use of this equipment in areas where environmental
hazards exist may require additional precautions to
limit the possibility of injury to the user or damage
to the equipment. Hazards may include, but are not
limited to, extreme temperatures, caustic chemicals,
corrosive environments, high voltage power lines,
explosive or toxic gases, moving machinery, and sharp
edges. Do not expose the equipment to any hazard
which it is not designed to withstand. Consult the
manufacturer in cases of doubt.
• Ensure that the system is free of grease, oil and ice.
• Cable lifeline must be kept clean.
• Use of this system is not suitable when the user
is positioned on an unstable surface, fine-grain
material, or particulate.

3.0 System Requirements
Before installation of a Vi-Go System, the structure or ladder on which the system is to be afxed must be certied
to be capable of withstanding the potential loads that may be applied in the event of a fall arrest and must meet
the specied ladder requirements.
Ladder Requirements
A ladder must be a xed ladder with rungs having outer diameters between 3/4 inch and 1-1/8 inches. According
to ANSI A14.3, the minimum width of the ladder should be 18 inches from inside rail to inside rail.
A system may be attached to square, diamond or L-shaped (angle iron) rungs so long as the rungs meet the mini-
mum 3/4 inch and maximum 1-1/8 inches outer diameter requirements. A spacer may be required for angle iron
installations. Please contact Miller Technical Services at 800-873-5242 for additional information and installation
assistance.
Top Bracket
Connection loads include system pretension and forces generated by arresting a fall. The load requirements vary
due to number of users on the system and installation to the structure (i.e., number of rung clamp assemblies
used).
For calculation purposes in determining the load each ladder rung must be able to withstand, assume the maxi-
mum load on each bracket is distributed evenly throughout the number of top bracket rung clamp assemblies.
[Example: Based on a single-user system with the top bracket installed with three rung connections, the assumed
load for each rung would be 1,100 lbs. (3,300/3).] An additional top bracket rung clamp assembly can be pur-
chased separately and used to spread the load requirements over four (4) rungs rather than three (3). [Example:
For a system with two (2) users the loads transmitted to each rung is reduced from 1,267 lbs. (3,800/3) to 950 lbs.
(3,800/4).]
Number of Simultaneous Users Maximum Load (lbs.)*
For Vi-Go AUTOMATIC and MANUAL Systems:
1 3,300 lbs.
2 3,800 lbs.
3 4,300 lbs.
4 4,800 lbs.
*The maximum load calculations provide a 2:1 safety factor.
Bottom Bracket
The bottom bracket connection must be capable of supporting a system load of 750 lbs. in the direction of loading.
