Guardian Vertical Lifeline Assemblies, and Guardian Rope Assemblies with fall arrest components such as
Rope Grabs and positioning devices, are designed for use as a Personal Fall Protection System (PFAS). The
equipment must be inspected before each use.
Attach only to approved anchorages suited for the applications and meeting OSHA and any other
applicable standards.
The maximum free fall distance allowed with this system is six (6) feet unless components are designed
for extended free falls. The system is rated for 5,000 lbs., although is a shock absorber pack is
incorporated in the system, the arrest forces on the body are limited to under 1,000 lbs. when properly
used.
The maximum worker weight, including tools, for use with this lifeline is 310 lbs.
The Positioning Device is locked until the cam lever is depressed, which allows the unit to slide along the
rope. Once the worker is at their location, they can release the Positioning Device so that it locks onto the
rope.
DO NOT grab the Positioning Device in the event of a fall, accidentally depressing the cam lock can open
up the unit and cause it to slide on the rope.
In order to work properly, the lanyard attached to the Positioning Device or Rope Grab must allow the
device to engage on the rope in its intended locking method. Users should familiarize themselves with the
Positioning Device before using.
The shock absorber pack on the lifeline system, if your system has a shock absorber permanently attached
to the end of the rope, is designed for attachment at the anchor point. If the shock absorber is built into
the leg of the rope grab, positioning device, or fall arrester, that portion must be attached to the user’s
approved body harness.
DO NOT tie knots in rope lifelines. Knots in rope significantly reduce the rope’s strength properties.
Limiter knots are permitted at the end of the system to limit the amount of Positioning Device travel.
