InstallatIon

Important:

The Flexiguard SafRig Fall Arrest System must be installed by a Qualified Person and the installation must be certified

by a Qualified Person as: meeting the criteria for a Certified Anchorage, or capable of supporting the potential forces that could be

encountered during a fall.

Important:

Do not alter or intentionally misuse this equipment. Consult Capital Safety when installing or using this equipment in

combination with components or subsystems other than those described in this manual. Some subsystems and component combinations

may interfere with the operation of this equipment.

3.1

PLANNING: Plan your fall protection system prior to installation of the Flexiguard SafRig Fall Arrest System. Account

for all factors that may affect your safety before, during, and after a fall. Consider all requirements, limitations, and

specifications defined in Section 2 and Table 1.

Refer to Figure 2 for identification of SafRig system components.

system setuP, steel Outrigger Base models 8530579 and 8530607:

Install Boom on the Vertical mast: See Figure 7. Bolt the plate at the end of the boom to the plate at the top of the

vertical mast with the supplied hardware. Torque hardware to 60 ft*lbs.

Assemble steel Outrigger Base: See Figure 8. Position the center section of the base. Set the two outriggers in place

and attach with the supplied hardware. Torque hardware to 60 ft*lbs.

Install Drive Over Guards : See Figure 9. Position the drive over guards. Attach with the supplied hardware. Torque

hardware to 45 ft*lbs.

system setuP, Concrete-filled Counterweight Base models 8530595 and 8530606:

Install Boom on the Vertical mast: See Figure 7. Bolt the boom to the vertical mast. Use supplied hardware. Torque

hardware to 60 ft*lbs.

Install Leveling Jacks: If included with the Concrete Filled Counterweight Base supplied with your Flexiguard SafRig

Fall Arrest System, install Leveling Jacks as instructed in the included Installation Instruction 5903386. (Leveling Jacks kit

part number is 8530563.)

INstALL tHe FLexIGuArD sAFrIG FALL Arrest system ON tHe BAse:

1. POsItION cOuNterweIGHt BAse: See Figure 10. Before proceeding further, lubricate the Hitch Ball Post pivot

ball (A) liberally with grease.

2. POsItION tHe VertIcAL mAst OVer tHe BAse: See Figure 10. Lift the assembled Vertical Mast by slinging (B)

the Boom with a Forklift or Crane. Position the Vertical Mast so the mounting socket in the bottom of the Vertical Mast

is directly over the Hitch Ball Post.

3. LOwer tHe VertIcAL mAst ONtO tHe BAse: Lower the Vertical Mast onto the Base until the Hitch Ball fully

seats in the Vertical Mast mounting socket.

3.5

INstALL OPtIONAL rescue AND retrIeVAL KIt: See Figure 13.

AttAcH tHe wINcH: Attach the winch or 3-way SRL (A) to the winch mount bracket (B). Secure the winch into

position with the positive locking detent pin (C).

2. rOute wINcH cABLe: Run the cable (D) over the Vertical Mast pulley (E), then over the Boom pulley (F).

note: the pulley detent pins (G) will need to be removed to allow the snap hook or carabiner to pass through.

3.6

trANsPOrtING tHe system: Prepare and transport the system as follows:

1. rOtAte tHe uPrIGHt AssemBLy: See Figure 8. Remove the Rotation Lock Pin (A), rotate the Vertical Mast for

best clearance during transport, and then reinsert the Rotation Lock Pin (A) to prevent the Vertical Mast from rotating

during transport.

2. trANsPOrt tHe system: Transport the Flexiguard SafRig Fall Arrest System to the desired work location using a

Forklift or Pallet Jack and the Lifting Channels.

CaUtIon:

Never transport the system without the Rotation Lock Pin inserted.

WarnInG:

Do not transport at speeds exceeding 5 mph (8 kph). Never transport the system on slopes greater than 10°. Excessive

speeds or slopes may cause system and tow vehicle tip-overs resulting in serious injury or death.

WarnInG:

When transporting the SafRig System, be aware of overhead obstructions and electrical hazards which may result in

serious injury or death.

3.7

POsItIONING tHe system: Figure 11 illustrates positioning and preparation of the Flexiguard SafRig Fall Arrest

System for work. Position and prepare the system as follows:

1. POsItION tHe system: Place the Flexiguard SafRig Fall Arrest System near the work area on a surface with 1° or

less of slope.

surface. Leveling Jacks may be installed in the Leveling Jack Mounts on the Counterweight Base for purposes of leveling the system on a

surface that is not level. Extend the Leveling Jacks until they contact the ground. Crank the Leveling Jacks up or down as needed until all

Slope Indicators indicate less than 1° of slope.

The Concrete Filled Counterweight Base is equipped with three Slope Indicators (C) for verification of a level
