Miller Cable Falcon
Normal condition of use:
Vertical application, with the self-retracting lifeline mounted above the worker's head.
Specific condition of use (Miller Falcon horizontal):
The Miller Falcon (MP) series of self-retracting lifelines are approved for use in horizontal applications. Horizontal
use application requires the use of a steel anchorage sling, part number 1002897, (6.4mm dia. x 1 meter long)
attached between the lifeline snap hook and the user's harness attachment point.
Warning:
Not using the steel anchorage sling in a horizontal use application could result in lifeline cable shear due
to the 90 degree bend of the lifeline over a sharp edge .
The following should be considered during Miller Falcon horizontal use:
• The maximum arrest distance recorded in testing is 2.25m.
• There could be in increased swing fall potential.
• The locking speed of the SRL may vary in the event of a fall, due to friction between the lifeline and the platform
edge.
• The SRL may lock up quicker than the workers walking pace and thus cause a fall by jerking the worker off
balance.
• Lifeline abrasion on work platforms and/or surfaces.
Warning:
Do not mount self-retracting lifelines below foot level .
Inclined use:
Miller self-retracting lifelines are not approved for inclined use.
