Apejuwe

• The FT-X® EdgeCore™ Class 2 Leading Edge SRL-P is a self-retracting device for those working at height and may be subject to fall hazards, including leading edge hazards.
• This manual includes one Appendix containing figures and tables specific to the FT-X® EdgeCore™ SRL-P discussed in this manual.
• The SRL discussed in this manual may be attached to an overhead anchorage, i.e., from directly over the user’s head, or to an anchorage at a maximum of 5′ below the user’s FBH dorsal D-ring.

Leading edge means the unprotected side and edge of a floor, roof, or formwork for a floor or other walking/working surface (such as deck) which changes location as additional floor, roof, decking, or form work sections are placed, formed, or constructed; see Figure 1.

As shown in Figure 2 below, the FT-X EdgeCore has a nylon housing that contains a synthetic lifeline wound onto a spring tensioned drum. The FT-X EdgeCore lifeline is equipped with a lifeline stop and a leg-end connector. When the user is attached, the lifeline extends and retracts with the user movement, automatically maintaining taut lifeline. If a fall occurs, a centrifugal pawl system engages, stopping the lifeline payout. In a fall event, the SRL-FBH Connector will break away from the Shear Connector, and the integral Energy Absorber (EA) will deploy, gradually slowing and arresting the fall.

The Arrest Distance is the total vertical distance required to arrest a fall. The Arrest Distance includes the deceleration distance and the activation distance. The Average Arrest Force is the average of the forces applied to the body and the anchorage by the fall protection system. The Maximum Arrest Force is the maximum amount of force that may be applied to the body and the anchorage by the fall protection system. In addition to the above tests conducted in ambient conditions, the units must be tested for average and peak forces under certain environmental conditions, where the units are cooled, then tested, heated, then tested, or saturated in water and tested again. Separate units may be used for each test. All test results are recorded.

• Classification information found on product labels is based on test results. Table 1B in Appendix A provides test performance results for the SRD discussed in this manual. Akiyesi: Arrest distance is one of several parts of the Minimum Required Fall Clearance (MRFC). MRFC is discussed in detail in Section 5.
• OSHA requires an SRD limit the free fall to 2 feet (0.9 m) or less. If the maximum free fall distance must be exceeded, the employer must document, based on test data, that the maximum arresting force will not be exceeded, and the personal fall arrest system will function properly. The SRD discussed in this manual was successfully tested for horizontal use and falls over a steel edge without burrs, as found on steel shapes and metal sheeting, and may be used in situations where a fall may occur over similar edges, such as found on steel shapes or metal sheeting. Additional testing has been conducted on a concrete edge substrate, outside and beyond the scope of ANSI Z359. Contact FallTech for more information on this testing.

Canadian Standards Organization (CSA):
The FT-X SRL-LE described in this manual, when used per the instruction in this manual meets or exceeds CSA Z259.2.2-2017(R2022). CSA requires that all SRDs be classified according to their respective type, and are classified either as; Class SRL, Class SRL-LE, Class SRL-LE, or Class SRL-LE-R. The FT-X SRL-LE Self Retracting Device in this manual is Class SRL-LE.

CSA Test Parameters used in this manual are:

• Ijinna idaduro (AD)
• Agbofinro Agbofinro (AAF)
• Agbara imuni ti o pọju (MAF)

The Arrest Distance is the total vertical distance required to arrest a fall. The Arrest Distance includes the deceleration distance and the activation distance. The Average Arrest Force is the average of the forces applied to the body and the anchorage by the fall protection system. The Maximum Arrest Force is the maximum amount of force that may be applied to the body and the anchorage by the fall protection system. In addition to the above tests conducted in ambient conditions, the units must be retested for average and peak forces under certain environmental conditions, where the units are cooled, then tested, and saturated in water and tested again. Separate units are used for each test. All test results are recorded.

This test data is then used to establish the basis for fall clearance guidelines published in the user instruction manual. See Table 1C.

Ibamu Awọn Asopọmọra:
Connectors are considered to be compatible with connecting elements when they have been designed to work together in such a way that their sizes and shapes do not cause their gate mechanisms to inadvertently open regardless of how they become oriented. Contact FallTech if you have any que stions about compatibility. Connectors must be compatible with the anchorage or other system components. Do not use equipment that is not compatible, see Figure 4. Non-compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage. Connectors must be compatible in size, shape, and strength. Selfclosing, self-locking connectors are required by ANSI and OSHA.

Figure 4-Non-Compatible Connections

• A Never connect two active components (snap hooks or carabiners) to each other.
• B Never connecttwo active components (snap hooks or carabiners) to a single D-ring at the same time.
• C Never connect in a way that would produce a condition of loading on the ga te.
• D Never attach to an object in a manner where by the gate (ofthe snap hook or cara biner) would be prevented from fully closing and locking. Always guard against false connections byvisually ins pecting for closure and lock.
• E Never attach explicitly to a constitue nt subcomponent (webbing, cable or rope) unless specifically provided for by the manufacture ‘s instructionsfor both subcomponents (snap hook or carabiner and webbing cable,or (ope).
• F Never attach in a manner where an element of the connector (gate or release lever) may become caught on the anchor there by producing additionalrsk of false engagement.
• G Never attach a spreader snap hook totwo side/positoning D-rings in a manner whereby the D-rings will engage the gates; the gates on a spre ader must always be facing away from the D-rings during work positoning.

Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Visually ensure all connectors are fully closed and locked. Connectors are designed to be used only as specified in each product’s user instructions.

 Eto Idaduro Isubu Ti ara ẹni:
A PFAS is an assembly of components and subsystems used to arrest a person during a fall event. A PFAS is typically composed of an anchorage and a FBH, with an energy absorbing connecting device, i.e., an SAL, an SRL, or a Fall Arrester Connecting Subsystem (FAC55), connected to the dorsal D-ring of the FBH. PFAS components used in conjunction with this SRL should comply with ANSI Z359 re quire ments and applicable OSHA regulations.

Agbofinro Imudani ati Ijinna Idaduro:
Table 1Band 1C in Appendix A provide test data on typical performance attributes ofthe three principal parameters: Arrest Distance, Average Arrest Force, and Maximum Arrest Force, listed by modelnumber and class. Testing is con ducted under various environmental conditions, at ambient temperature, hot, cold, and wet conditions. In manufacturer’s tests, worst case performance attributes of the SRL, connected 5′ below dorsal D-ring in a Leading Edge application are:

The Competent Person may find this data useful with planning anchorage location and calculating fall arrest loads and distances fromthe walking/working level to the nearest obstruction or lower level.

Wo Abala 5.
NOTE: Arrest distance is one part of the Minimum Required Fall Clearance (MRFC). The MRFC is determined by consideration of multiple factors in fall protection. Attachment below the level of the FBH D-ring willre quire additional fall clearance. MRFC is discussed in detail in Section 5.

Agbara Idaduro Eto Idaduro Isubu Ti ara ẹni:
An anchorage selected for PFAS application must have the strength to sustain a static load applied in the direction permitted bythe PFAS of at least:

Attachíng to an Anchorage
Examine the work area for possible hazards. Take caution to avoid overhead hazards such as cranes, poles, overhead power cables, and walking/working surface hazards such as power cables, welding leads, air and fluid hoses, including obstruction hazards such as vertical columns and stacks of materials on the lower level. Eliminate hazards where possible. Ensure the anchorage provides the Minimum Required Fall Clearance (MRFC) in the fall path belowthewalking/working surface to prevent striking the lower level or an obstruction during a fall event. Take action to avoid swing falls, which occur when the anchorage is not directly above the point where the fall occurs.

Fall clearance and swing falls are subject to variable conditions. Anchor height, lateral movement, and setback distance all affect anchor location with regard to fall clearance and swing falls. The 5RL may be attached to an overhead anchor, i.e., above the user’s FBH dorsal D-ring, or a nonoverhead anchor, i.e., below the user’s FBH dorsal D-ring. A non-overhead anchor may be a maximum of 5′ (1.5 m) belowthe user’s FBH dorsal D-ring. Non-overhead anchor locations result in greater contact between the lifeline and the edge and present greater abrasion risk hazards. Use ofa below D-ring anchorages should be as a last resort, when no other anchor option exists. Performance testing has shown thata fall event over a leading edge will alter SRL performance characteristics and fall clearance requirements. When anchored below the FBH back D-ring, fall events will result in greater fall clearances. Reduced setback distances willalso increase clearance re quire ments. Non-overhead anchorage when the SRL is set back lessthan 5′(1.5 m) will result in the greatest MRFC and the least amount of worker mobility due to swing fall. Greater set back distances of 5′ (1.5 m) or more will reduce the overall MRFC and allow for more lateral movement ofthe worker when atta ched to a non-overhead anchorage. If job site geometry allows it,a setback distance of 5′(1.5 m) is recommended to take full advantage of the SRL performance. In addition, the Angle of Redirection of the lifeline, i.e.,the angle of the lifeline as it passes over the edge, must be at 90 degrees or more, never less, see Figure б. Do not attach the anchorage connector in a manner that places the edge higher than the connector, see Figurе 6.

Using the FT-X® EdgeCore™ Class 2 Leading Edge SRL-P

• Before each use, inspect the FT-X EdgeCore™ in accordance with Section 7. Remove the device from service if the inspection shows damage or any malfunction.
• Don the FBH (with the FT-X EdgeCore™ attached) in accordance with the harness manufacturer’s instructions. Follow the instructions contained in this manual and on the labels. Failure to follow instructions may result in serious injury or death.
• Connect the leg end connector to an approved anchorage point. Ensure the connector closes and locks. In a Twin-leg configuration,attach the unused leg end connector to the FBH’s lanyard keeper.
• Ensure all connections are compatible. Normal operation willa llow the working length ofthe lifeline to extend and retract as the worker moves about.When using a Twin-leg configuration, it is possible to move laterally between anchor points with 100% tie-offas shown in Figure 7.

• Avoid sudden or quick movements during the normalwork operation, as this may cause the 5RL pawl system to engage and possibly cause loss of balance, which may cause injury or death. If a fall occurs, the pawl system will engage and lock the life line. The EA will deploy to arrest the fall and limit arrest forces on the user.

Ilana Titiipa:
The 5RD utilizes an a cceleration based locking mechanism. The locking function requires a certain payout rate during a fallevent to function correctly. Certain situations, confined or cramped spa ces, shifting footing such as sand, gravel, grain, or a sloped surface may not allow the lifeline to reach sufficient speed to activate the lock me chanism.A clear path is re quired to assure positive locking of the SRD. Ensure the lock is functioning properly. Pull the lifeline out a short distance and give it a sharp tug. The lifeline must lock. If it fails to lock, remove it from service immediately. Ensure the work zone remains within stated parameters. Beware of Leading Edge hazards.

Atọka wiwo:
The primary visual indicator is the shear connector. The shear connector halve s will se parate if the SRL-P has been subjected to fall arrest forces, as shown in Figure 8, Image B. Ifthe shear connector is separate d, remove the unit from service. For deployed visual indicators, both SRDs and the energy absorber shall be removed from service and destroyed. 5RD units shall not be salvagedand re-used with other energy absorber(s).

Lẹhin Isubu kan:
A fall event over an edge may require special rescue equipment and measures. Ensure a written rescue plan, method and system is in place and rea dily available to all users for rapid response. Ensure all users are trained in rescue procedures. If a fallevent occurs, remove it from service, and store it separately. Remove from service any unit that has been subjected to fallarrest forces or that exhibitsdamage consistent with such forces. For questions, contact FallTech.

 Using the 5RD:

• Do not use the SRD if inspection shows damage or any malfunction. Don the FBH in accordance with the FBH manufacturer’s instructions. Follow the instructions contained in this manual and on the labels. Failure to follow instructions mayresult in serious injury or death. Connect the SRL-FBH Connector to the dorsal D-ring on the FBH. Ensure the connector closes and locks. Attach the leg-end carabiner to the chosen anchorage and ensure the leg-end connector closes and locks. Ensure all connections are compatible.
• Normaloperation willa llow the working length ofthe lifeline to extend and retract as the worker moves about. A certain amount of tension must remain on the cable at all times to ensure proper operation of the internal brake. Do not allow the life line to become slack. If the lifeline becomes slack, remove the 5RD from service for inspection. See Section 7.

The diagram in Figure 14 is calculated using the performance data ofthe SRD and includes all four metrics listed previouslyto determine the MRFC.

The leading edge/below D-ring condition minimum required fall clearance (MRFC) is calculated using five metrics, measured from the walking-working surface: SRD Deceleration Distance, D-Ring Shift and Harness Stretch [1 ft (0.3m/)], Safety Factor [1.5 ft (0.5m)], Dorsal D-ring Height [5 ft (1.5m)], and Swing Fall. Dorsal D-ring height is added to account for the below D-ring tie-off compared to the overhead condition.

Maíntenance, Service, and Sto rage

Itọju:
Ensure the SRL is kept free of excess paint, grease, dirt or other contaminants as this may cause the lifeline or retracting mechanism to malfun ction. Ensure no debris enters the housing. Clean the exterior of the unit as required with a detergent/water solution. Do not allow water or other corrosion causing elements to enter the housing. After cleaning, pull the lifeline all the way out, allow the unit to air dry, then retract the lifeline into the unit. Clean labels as required.
