GENERAL INFORMATION

1. 1 TECHNICAL DATA
Maximum rope length
Fixing span
Maximum number of users
The safety distance between the users must not be less than 3 m (10 ft).
The maximum dynamic load in case of a fall from a height is 6 kN (1345.8 lbf) for one person and + 1 kN (224.8 lbf) for every additional person,
using the system.
Every user of the Söll Vi-Go vertical arrest system must read and understand this guide before using the system. Actions contravening this guide
may put people's lives at risk. Users must be trained based on the operating instructions and this user information before starting work and at
regular intervals, however they must be trained no less frequently than once per year.
The operating company of the Söll Vi-Go vertical arrest system and the user of the fall arrester must ensure that this guide is kept along with the
corresponding fall arrester on a dry and readily accessible place.
The Söll Vi-Go vertical arrest system must be used only with fall arresters of Söll Vi-Go vertical systems depending on cable diameter and type
of the intermediate brackets used as follows.
The operating company must present this guide at the request of the manufacturer Honeywell Fall Protection Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG
or one of its authorized dealers).It must be supplied with the adequate fall arresters of Söll Vi-Go vertical arrest systems . The fall arrester that
comes with the Söll Vi-Go system must be operated only in original Söll Vi-Go fall protection systems that have the Söll Vi-Go type ANSI/CSA
prototype test certificate. Using systems of other manufacturers may hamper the functioning of the fall arrester. In such cases, Honeywell
Fall Protection Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG and its authorised dealers shall refuse product liability. The operating company shall then be
completely responsible.
The fall protection system must be used only in conjunction with full body harnesses that have been checked and approved in accordance with
ANSI Z359.11/CSA Z259.10 and are equipped with a climbing attachment point.
The fall arrester of Söll Vi-Go vertical arrest system must always be attached to the climbing attachment point of the full body harness. The fall
protection system must be handled with care.
The rope attachment points of the Vi-Go system must not be used as a transport anchor or for fastening loads. Functional capability of the sys-
tem must be inspected visually before and while using the installed fall protection system. The operating company of the fall protection system
must ensure that a rescue plan (that takes into account all possible emergencies which may occur when working) is available.
Operating temperature: –40 °C to +70°C (-40 °F to +158 °F); here, ensure that the system is free of greases, oils and ice.
The user must be in good health and must not be under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medicines. Corresponding instructions must be
followed if other personal protective equipment is used.
The checklist (page 88) must be filled by the manager of the installation company completely and properly using an indelible pen.
In case of a test mass of 100 kg (220 lbs) and a situation where the falling factor is 2 (conditions of the most unfavourable fall), a height of at
least 2.0 m (6.6 ft) is required below the user's feet.

Important!

Before using the fall protection system, ensure that the required free space of 2.0 m (6.6 ft) under the user's feet is available. The user may
not be sufficiently protected against hitting the ground or obstacles if he/she is at a height of less than 2.0 m (6.6 ft).
