INSPECTION

Frequency

Full Body Harnesses must be inspected prior to each use, and annually by an OSHA deﬁ ned

"competent person" other than the user.

Criteria

Warning: If inspection reveals any defect, inadequate maintenance, or unsafe condition,

remove from service and destroy.

Warning: After a fall occurs, or if any part of the load indicator warning is showing, the

Full Body Harness must be removed from service and destroyed immediately.

All components of the Full Body Harness must be inspected.

To inspect webbing, bend a portion of the webbing 6-8 inches into an upsidedown 'U' shape.

Continue along all webbing inspecting for tears, cuts, fraying, abrasion, discoloration, burns,

holes, mold, pulled or broken stitches, or other signs of wear and damage. Adjust all keepers,

buckles, padding and D-ring to inspect webbing hidden by these components.

Sewn terminations must be secure, complete, and not visibly damaged.

All markings must be legible and attached to the product.

All hardware must be free of cracks, sharp edges, deformation, corrosion, or any evidence of

defect.

CLEANING, MAINTENANCE, STORAGE

Caution: Wear proper Personal Protective Equipment when performing Inspection,

Cleaning and Maintenance procedures. Safety glasses & gloves are recommended.

Cleaning

Full Body Harnesses can be wiped down with a mild detergent and clean water solution, and

rinsed with a dampened clean cloth to remove detergent. The hardware can also be wiped down

to remove grease, or dirt with a clean dry cloth.

Maintenance

Any Full Body Harness requiring maintenance must be tagged "unusable" and removed

from service.

Warning: Only 3M, or persons or entities authorized in writing by 3M, shall make

repairs or alterations to the equipment.

Cleaning maintenance may be performed by the user.
