Usage Limits; Shelf Life; Storage Instructions - Deltaplus LV120 Notice D'utilisation Et D'entretien

WARNING: Any static or dynamic overload may damage the PPE.
The device may only be used by one person at a time, according to EN795. This device has been tested to be used
up to 2 users simultaneously, according to CENTS 16415.
The weight of the user, including his clothing and equipment must not exceed the maximum weight of a person
(100kg according to fall arrest standards).
WARNING:
It is dangerous to create your own fall arrest system as each safety function may interfere with another safety
function.
No modification or addition or repair of the PPE may be made without prior written consent from the manufacturer
nor without using their procedures.
Do not use beyond the area of use defined in the instructions for use.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for any direct or indirect accident after a modification or use other than
that provided in this manual.
Should the anchoring device be used solely for personal protective equipment against falls and not for lifting
equipment.
When the anchor is used as part of a fall arrest system, the user must be equipped with means for limiting the
maximum dynamic forces exerted on the user during a fall arrest, to a maximum of 6 kN.
Provide a safe distance from power lines or areas with an electrical hazard.

USAGE LIMITS:

Before any PPE implementation operation, set up a rescue plan to deal with any emergency that may occur during
the operation.

SHELF LIFE:

Metal products and mechanical products (self retracting fall arrest device, sliding,
work on ropes, anchors etc. ...): Maximum duration of 20 years from the date of
manufacture (including storage and use).
The shelf life is given as an indication. The following factors can cause it to vary
greatly:
- Non-compliance with the manufacturer's instructions for transport, storage and
use
- "Aggressive" work environment: marine atmosphere, chemicals, extreme
temperatures, sharp edges...
- Particularly intensive use
- Shock or significant constraint
- Disregard for the product item's history.
Warning: these factors can cause damage invisible to the naked eye.
Warning: certain extreme conditions can shorten the shelf life by a few days.
If in doubt, always remove the product for it to undergo either:
- a review
- destruction
The shelf life is not a substitute for periodic verification (minimum annually) which
will assess the condition of the product.

No modification or addition or repair of the PPE may be made without prior
written consent from the manufacturer nor without using their procedures.
Do not use beyond the area of use defined in the instructions for use.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for any direct or indirect accident after a
modification or use other than that provided in this manual.
Do not use this equipment beyond its limits.
PERIODIC REVIEW of PPE:
An examination should be performed at least every twelve months by the manufacturer, or a competent person or
a competent organization, authorized by the manufacturer. This very important check is related to the
maintenance and efficacy of the PPE and hence the user's safety. A written document authorising reuse should be
obtained during this audit in order to reuse the PPE. This document will clarify that the user's safety is linked to
maintaining the efficiency and resistance of the equipment.
Replace the PPE if necessary.
In accordance with European regulations, the identification form must be completed prior to the first use of the
product and then updated and kept with the product as well as the manual by the user.
The legibility of the product labelling should be checked periodically.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS:

During transport and storage:
- keep the product in its packaging
- keep the product away from any sharp, abrasive, objects etc...
- keep the product away from sunlight, heat, flames, hot metal, oil, petroleum products, harsh chemicals, acids,
dyes, solvents, sharp edges and structures of small diameter. These items can affect the performance of the fall
arrest device.

To ensure its working condition and therefore the safety of the user, the product
should be checked systematically:
1/ visually inspect the following points:
- State of the strap or rope: no fraying, no boot cut, no visible damage at seams,
no burning and no unusual narrowing.
- Condition of the metal parts: no wear, no deformation, no corrosion or oxidation.
- General condition: look for any possible damage due to ultraviolet radiation and
other climatic conditions.
- State of the anchoring device: its compliance to installation instructions and
recommendations,
- Condition of fasteners: tightening torques (kN) observed,
- That the general disposition of the work situation reduces the fall risk, the drop
height and the pendulum movement in the case of a fall.
- Correct operation and locking of connectors (EN362).
Specific conditions such as humidity, snow, ice, mud, dirt, paint, oil, glue,
corrosion, wear of the strap or rope, etc.. can significantly reduce the operation of
the fall arrest device.
2/ in the following cases:
- Before and during use
- if in doubt.
- in the case of contact with chemicals, solvents or fuels that could affect
operation.
- if it has been subjected to stress during a previous fall.
- at least every twelve months by the manufacturer or a competent organization,
mandated by them.
