Connecting to the Harness
Always connect the lifeline end snap hook with
attached SofStop LE Shock Absorber to the
back D-ring of the full-body harness. Verify
that the snap hook is completely closed and
locked.
WARNING
Never use this device in a reverse con-
figuration whereby the body of the re-
tractable unit is attached to the worker's
back D-ring.
Installing to the Anchorage
NOTE:
Overhead mounting of a self-
retracting lifeline is typically recommended.
However, Miller MightyLite Leading Edge Self-
Retracting Lifelines have been specifically
designed and extensively tested for horizontal
leading edge use. In accordance with ANSI
Z359.14, Miller MightyLite Leading Edge
SRLs have been successfully tested for
horizontal use and falls over a steel edge
without burrs. As a result, these devices
may be used in situations where a fall may
occur over similar edges, such as found on
steel shapes and metal sheeting.

Instruction Manual.
Honeywell
Industrial
recommends a minimum set-back distance
of 9 ft. (2.7m) from the edge for leading edge
installation applications. When using a set-
back distance of 9 ft. (2.7m) or greater, the
lateral edge distance (work zone) must be
limited to 12 ft. (3.7m) from perpendicular to
the anchor point (see Fig. 2). Miller MightyLite
Leading Edge Self-Retracting Lifelines may
be anchored at a set-back distance less than
9 ft. (2.7m) as long as the worker remains
within the set lateral edge distance/work
zone limits as specified in the Fall Clearance
Table.
These guidelines are designed to
ensure maximum worker safety by minimizing
potential free fall and swing fall and reducing
the need for excessive fall clearance. Refer
to the diagrams below and the fall clearance
section of this manual for further clarification.
Install the leading edge self-retracting lifeline
to
the
approved
connector by the anchorage attachment
using a locking carabiner or other Honeywell-
approved connector. Verify that the connector
is completely closed and locked.
