General Conditions Of Use - neofeu NELFF Manual Del Usuario

products and the applicable standards relating to the anti-fall
system are applied. It is important to particularly ensure that
the safety function of any of the components is not affected
by the safety function of another and that they do not interfere
with each other.
- Before every use of a fall-arrest system, the empty space
(clearance) required under the user must be verified so that, in
case of a fall, there is no collision with the ground, or with a fixed
or moving obstacle that is within the fall trajectory.
- Conduct a visual examination before, during and after use
to ensure that the equipment is in good condition and that
there are no defects: condition of the straps, seams, connectors.
Check to ensure that there is/are no wearing, cuts, fraying,
initial signs of breaking, deformation, traces of oxidation, knots
or discolouration and ensure that all the markings are legible
(identification and/or date of validity).
USE :
- During use, check the equipment on a regular basis. Its
components must be protected from any environmental
stress: mechanical stress (impacts, sharp edges, etc.), chemical
stress (projection of acids, bases, solvents, etc.), electrical stress
(short-circuit, electric arcs, etc.) or thermal stress (hot surfaces,
blowtorches, etc.).
- The anti-fall system has to be connected to the dorsal D-ring
of the harness, or at the end-point of the extension strap if it has
one, or to the two sternal rings simultaneously. These points are
identified by the letter A (single fastenings) or A/2 (mandatory
to connect these points together).
- After a fall, the anchor strap must be destroyed and replaced.
- The anchor strap, which constitutes the anchorage point on
the structure where the fall arresting system will be fixed, must
be above and close to the user; the maximum load that is likely
to be transmitted to the structure is 8,8 kN. Try not to distance
yourself too much from this anchor point in order to limit the
impact of a possible pendulum fall.

GENERAL CONDITIONS OF USE :

- The equipment must be inspected periodically by a proficient
INTERPRETATION OF THE MARKING (#4):
- 1 Ref : Product reference.
- 2 Length of the product in m.
- 3 Individual Production No.
- 4 Date of manufacture.
- 5 Expiry date.
- 6 Pictogram specifying that the anchorage device must only
be used by a single person.
- 7 Pictogram requesting to read the instructions before use.
This product is compliant with Regulation 2016/425. It meets the requirements of harmonized standard EN795 : 2012.

inspector in order to ensure the safety of the user, which
is linked to maintaining the efficacy and resistance of the
equipment. A compulsory annual inspection will validate the
condition of the equipment, and it will be retained in service
only after an approval is obtained in writing.
- Do not expose these products to temperatures less than -30°C
or more than +50°C.
- This equipment must not be used in any way contrary to these
specifications and under no circumstances should its limits be
exceeded.
- Storage: the product must be stored in a dry and well-
ventilated area, sheltered from any direct or indirect source of
heat and from ultra-violet rays. Drying wet equipment must be
performed in the same conditions.
- Cleaning and disinfection: exclusively with water and a neutral
soap.
- Packaging: use rot-proof and watertight protective packaging.
- Transport: packaged and sheltered from impacts or pressure
caused by the environment.
- The product must not be modified or repaired.
- Ensure that the identification sheet and the maintenance
monitoring table is kept up to date from the time of the
commissioning and during each inspection.
- Service life: Fall-protection PPE are designed to last for
several years in normal conditions of use and preservation.
The service life depends on the use. Certain environments
that are particularly aggressive, marine, siliceous or chemical
can reduce the service life of PPE. In these cases, special care
must be taken regarding protection and the inspections before
use. The mandatory annual inspection will validate the correct
functioning of the mechanism and it can only continue to be
used on obtaining a written agreement from the manufacturer
or its representative.
We recommend indicating the date of the next inspection
using a label stuck to the side of the identification label.
- As concerns what has been mentioned above, the rough
estimate of the service life of the products, as recommended
by the marketing authority, is 10 (ten) years.
- 8 Logo and address of the marketing authority.
- 9 CE Marking / Notified body no.
- 10 Identification of the notified body that intervened in the
inspection and production phase.
- 11 Reference standard and year of issue.
- 12 Do not climb above the PPE.
- 13 Remain below it to avoid the pendulum effect.
