III. Use Warnings, Restrictions and Cautions
a. Purpose
This device is designed to be used as a temporarily installed (not
for permanent installation) anchorage connector on wood frame
structures. This anchorage connector may be used as part of a
personal fall arrest or restraint system. Do not attach a lifeline
between two or more roof anchors (i.e. horizontal lifeline system).
Do not hang, lift or support tools or equipment from this roof anchor
or attach guylines for antennas, phone lines, etc.
1. FALL ARREST APPLICATION: In this application, the roof
anchor is used as part of a complete fall arrest system. Such
systems typically include a full body harness and some form of
connecting subsystem, such as an energy absorbing lanyard.
Maximum permissible free fall is 6 feet. This type of system is
used where a free fall is possible before the fall is arrested.
2. RESTRAINT APPLICATION: In this application, the roof anchor
is used as part of a complete restraint system. Such systems
typically include a full body harness and a lanyard or restraint
line used to restrain or tether the user from reaching a hazard
(i.e. leading edge roof work). This type of system is used where
no vertical free fall is possible.
b. Rated Capacity
1. Capacity: 310 lbs. For one person with a combined weight
(person, clothing, tools, etc.) of no more than 310 lbs. Only one
personal protective system may be connected to the roof anchor
at any time.
2. Minimum Breaking Strength: 5000 lbs. when loaded within the
loading direction limitations. This anchor satises the OSHA
and ANSI strength requirements when used in accordance
with OSHA, ANSI local regulations and the manufacturer’s
instructions.
