Warnings and Limitations
Before installation of any anchorage connector, carefully inspect to ensure that it is in
useable condition. Check for missing or damaged parts. Do not use this equipment if
any component does not operate properly or if the unit appears to be damaged in any
way. Refer to the inspection section of this manual.
The ShadowLite Beam Anchor is designed for use with Miller approved components.
Substitution or replacement with non-approved component combinations or subsystems or
both may affect or interfere with the safe function of each other and endanger the compatibility
within the system. This incompatibility may affect the reliability and safety of the total system.
Fall arrest systems used with the anchorage connector must be rigged in accordance to
regulatory requirements. [All instructions and warnings provided with the components of
the personal fall arrest system must be read, understood, and followed.]
Make sure that all connections within the fall arrest system are compatible.
Use only locking carabiners, locking snap hooks or other Miller approved connectors or
connecting devices to attach to this equipment.
The anchorage connector must be compatible with the snap hook or carabiner of the
connecting device and must not be capable of causing a load to be applied to the gate/
keeper. Never use an anchorage connector which will not allow snap hook or carabiner
gate/keeper to close.
Anchor and system must be installed and used in such a manner as to minimize the potential
struck should a fall occur. When selecting an anchorage point, always remember that
shock absorbers will elongate when subjected to fall arrest forces. Refer to the labels and
This device must only be used on beams where a fall will not cause the device to slide
along the beam and increase the fall distance.
The device shall be connected such that it will not slide off the end of a beam and should
safety factor of at least two.
Anchorage requirements based on ANSI are as follows:
anchorage strengths must be multiplied by the number of personal fall arrest systems
attached to the anchorage.
[Note: If the system is used by an employee having a combined tool and body weight between
310 lbs. (140.6 kg) and 400 lbs. (181.4 kg), then the employer must appropriately modify the
criteria and protocols to provide proper protection for such heavier weights, or the system will
not be deemed to be in compliance with the requirements of OSHA 1926.502(d)(16).]
