7.1. Advance arrangements for
GB
installation
1. The installation of the mobifor™ anchor point must
be performed by a trained and competent person.
2. The installation and use of the mobifor™ anchor
point must be in compliance with the country's laws
and regulations.
3. The installer must have the preliminary study file
(§ 6).
7.2. Checks prior to installation
Before installation, check that:
1. The length of the shock absorber is less than 200
mm (Fig. 4).
2. The absence of significant damage to concrete
blocks and the presence and legibility of all
markings.
3. The block bearing arms and the central structure do
not exhibit significant deformation and/or corrosion.
4. That all the associated products are used according
to the recommendations of their respective
instructions for use.
5. That the mobifor™ anchor point has been reviewed
periodically over the past 12 months.
6. The air draft (Fig. 4, T) is compatible with the
intended fall arrest system.
"DANGER": In the event of an anomaly noted
during these checks, the mobifor™ anchor point must
be suspended from use to prevent any accident and
must be repaired by a trained and competent person
(see § 10).
7.3. Installation
Depending on the type of waterproof covering of the
terrace roof, the installer must proceed as follows:
7.3.1. For bitumen waterproofing loaded with a
mineral layer (ballast)
Step 1:
Clear the terrace roof on a surface around the anchor
point equivalent to the Sg surface (Fig. 2).
Step 2:
Clean the unobstructed area using appropriate
resources. After cleaning, the surface must be free of
all dirt such as dust, oil, grease, mould, algae, moss,
leaves or other.

7. Installation
Step 3:
Installation of the anchor point (Fig. 5).
7.3.1.1. Installation of the galvanised steel central
structure (Fig. 1, rep. 3):
This structure is equipped with 4 Sp surface mounting
pads (Fig. 3) in order to avoid any risk of deterioration
of the waterproof coating. However, it is recommended
that the installer place it gently on the ground and not to
step on it or to deposit masses on this central structure,
which could lead to the deterioration of the waterproof
coating.
7.3.1.2. Installation of the 4 galvanised steel block
bearers (Fig. 1, rep. 2) following this
procedure:
1. Take an arm by its folded end and introduce the
right end of the arm into one of the 4 rectangular
openings of the central structure. Then insert it into
the rectangular hole in the lower part of the central
post (Fig. 5, rep. 1 and 2).
2. Place the arm on the floor, taking care to insert the
locking pin of the central structure into the hole of
the block bearer arm (Fig. 5, ref. 3).
3. First block bearer arm installed.
4. Continue with the installation of the 3 other arms
following the same procedure (Fig. 5, rep. 4).
7.3.1.3. Installation of the 4 central concrete blocks:
IMPORTANT: Before placing the concrete blocks
on the arms, the installer must ensure that the
installation surface of the Sm (FIG 3) block does not
present any sharp edges, deterioration or foreign body
to deteriorate the waterproof coating of the roof.
1. Take a first block with both hands at the clearances
and position it on the first arm taking care to place
the arm in the groove of the block intended to
receive it (Fig. 5, rep. 5).
2. Lift the central structure slightly until the arm stops
at the bottom of the groove of the block and slide
the block in order to bring it into abutment against
the face of the folded leg of the central structure
(Fig. 5, rep. 6).
3. First central block placed.
4. Do the same for the other 3 blocks.
→ Four central blocks in place (Fig. 5, rep. 7).
7.3.1.4. Installation of the 4 external concrete blocks:
1. Take a first block with both hands at the clearances
and position it on the first arm taking care to place
the arm in the groove of the block intended to
receive it (Fig. 5, rep. 8).
