CLEANING, MAINTENANCE & STORAGE

Cleaning: Cleaning after use is important for maintaining

the safety and longevity of the Ergodyne Travel Restraint

Lanyard. Spot clean and rinse the harness with plain water

and a mild soap solution to remove all dirt, corrosives

and contaminants from the lanyard before and after each

use. Water used for wash and rinse must not exceed 160

degrees Fahrenheit. Wipe off hardware with a clean, dry

cloth. NEVER clean the Ergodyne Travel Restraint Lanyard

with any corrosive substance.

Maintenance: If the Ergodyne Travel Restraint Lanyard

fails inspection in any way, immediately remove it from

service and contact Ergodyne to inquire about its

return or repair. Additional maintenance and servicing

procedures beyond spot cleaning with plain water and

a mild soap solution must be completed by a factory

authorized service center. Authorization must be in writing

from Ergodyne. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit.

Storage: Store and transport the Ergodyne Travel

Restraint Lanyard in a cool, dry, clean environment out

of direct sunlight. Avoid areas where chemical vapors

may exist. Thoroughly inspect the harness after extended

storage.

WARNINGS

Read, understand and follow all information contained

on warning tags, labels and literature furnished with all

Ergodyne fall protection equipment.

Fall protection equipment is for use by properly trained

users only.

Employer — instruct employee as to proper use and

warnings before use of equipment.

Fall protection equipment must only be used for the

specific purpose for which it is designed and intended.

Connecting devices must be destroyed if subjected to

impact loading.

Always visually check that: 1) each snap hook freely

engages D-ring or anchorage, 2) the snap- hook keeper

(gate) is completely closed with each use. Never rely

solely on the feel or sound of a snap hook engaging.

Before each use check that: 1) unit is free of burns, cuts,

abrasions, kinks, knots, broken strands and excessive wear,

2) hooks, D-rings and buckles (if any) are not distorted

or cracked, 3) hook keepers are not bent, and are free

of burrs, clean and functioning properly, 4) breakaway

jacket on deceleration units has no broken stitches, tears,

stretch marks or other evidence of impact loading, 5)

for deceleration lanyards and deceleration units, check

that red-lettered warning label is not uncovered (the

uncovering of this label indicates that a severe impact

force has occurred), 6) Remove from service, destroy

and discard unit if it does not pass this inspection and

replace it immediately.

Make sure each snap hook is positioned so that its keeper

(gate) is never load bearing.

For personal use only; do NOT use for towing or hoisting.

NOT for recreational or sporting use.

Always attach snap hook to proper anchorage for

the intended use or the proper (center back) D-ring

of harness.

Never disable locking keeper on hook, punch holes in

or alter a connecting device in any way.

Never join snap hooks together. They are NOT meant

to be used that way and could twist apart.

Never attach multiple snap hooks onto a D-ring.

Must be rigged so that a worker cannot free fall

more than 2 feet.

Never wrap a rope lanyard around a beam or other

sharp structure. The rope can be cut or damaged. Instead,

use an aircraft-cable lanyard or a webbing lanyard.

Never attach a lanyard back onto itself.

Never allow a rope or webbing lanyard to contact high-

temperature surfaces, welding or other heat sources.

Use an aircraft-cable lanyard.

Never attach multiple lanyards together.

Never tie knots in lanyards. Knots can reduce the strength

of the lanyard up to 50%.

Never work without independent fall-arrest protection

if there is danger of a fall.

Do not alter the equipment.

Do not misuse the equipment.

Do not use combinations of components or sub-systems,

or both, which may affect or interfere with the safe

function of each other.

Do not expose the equipment to chemicals, heat, flames

or other environmental conditions which may produce a

harmful effect. Consult the manufacturer in case of doubt.

Do not use the equipment around moving machinery and

electrical hazards.

Do not use the equipment near sharp edges or

abrasive surfaces.

Exposure to light can lead to UV degradation.

Store and transport the equipment in a cool, dry,

clean environment out of direct sunlight.
