USE AND PRECAUTIONS:
A harness is a piece of personal protection equipment; it should be allocated to a single user (it can only be used by one person at a time). A harness
should first be adjusted to the size of the operator. The straps should be adjusted once and for all so that the sub-pelvic strap is in position and the back
plate is properly positioned between the shoulder blades. A harness should be adjusted as close as possible to the body, without excess, so as to leave
the operator freedom of movement. Observe the following steps:
Before use for the first time the user should carry out a comfort and adjustability test, in a safe place, to ensure that the harness is the correct size and
has been adjusted correctly. On a harness the attachment points marked A can accept a fall arrest system, the attachment points marked A/2 can be
connected together to be connected to a fall arrest system. In general, it is recommended to use the back attachment point whenever possible because
this is the best configuration for the human body to absorb forces.
Attachment points that are not marked with either A or A/2 must not be used for connecting a fall prevention device.
The ventral attachment point, as well as the attachment points located at the side of the belt are for work positioning only. During use make sure to
check all fastenings and adjustment elements regularly. A harness should be connected to a fall arrest system by EN362 connectors.
SPECIAL CASE: harnesses with special marking.
The use of a harness in a zone for which it has not been certified is entirely at the user's risk.
Product markings should be checked periodically for legibility.
A harness may include a work positioning belt (EN 358). Observe the instructions applying to it. The harness anchorage point should be situated above
the user and must comply with EN 795:2012 (minimum strength: R>12kN). Make sure that the work is done in such a way as to limit the pendulum
effect, as well as the risk and the height of a fall. For safety reasons and before each use, make sure that in the event of a fall there is no obstacle
obstructing the normal deployment of the fall arrest system (free space under the user's feet). The clearance under the user's feet should be a minimum
of: refer to the fall arrest system manual.
