Maintenance And Storage - Honeywell MILLER 550 Manual De Instrucciones Para El Usuario


Evidence of deployed or activated fall load indicators.
All harnesses are equipped with one of the following
fall load indicators:
D-Ring Pad Load Indicator:
The D-ring pad has built-in fall load indicators with
pairs of arrows indicating the location to inspect. If
the harness is exposed to fall arrest forces, the pad
will be broken or stretched between ONE OR BOTH
of the pairs of arrows.
Webbing Load Indicator:
Folds sewn into each of the webbing shoulder straps
below the back D-ring pad serve as load indicators.
If the harness is exposed to fall arrest forces, the
stitching on ONE OR BOTH of the webbing load
indicators will rip, and the webbing will unfold.
When inspection reveals defects in or damage to equipment, inad-
equate maintenance of equipment, or evidence of equipment having
been exposed to fall arrest forces or loading, the equipment shall be
tagged as "unusable", removed from service, and immediately discard-
ed in such a manner as to prevent inadvertent further use.

8.2 Maintenance and Storage

Basic care of equipment will prolong its service life and will contribute toward the performance of
its vital safety function. Maintenance and storage of equipment shall be conducted by the user's
organization in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Unique issues, which may arise
due to conditions of use, shall be addressed with the manufacturer.
Periodically, clean harnesses using a sponge and mild solution of water and commercial soap
or detergent, to remove any dirt, corrosives, or contaminants. Hang freely to dry, but away from
excessive heat, steam, or long periods of sunlight.
When not in use, equipment shall be stored in a manner as to preclude damage from
environmental factors, such as temperature, light, UV, excessive moisture, oil, chemicals and their
vapors, or other degrading elements. Honeywell recommends hanging the harness by its back
D-ring to help it keeps its shape and prevent straps from tangling, so that it will be ready for the
worker to don when needed.
