Warning Label - DBI SALA 2100050 Manual De Instrucciones

FROM OSHA 1926.500 AND 1910.66: Anchorages used for attachment of a personal fall arrest system shall be independent of any anchorage being used to
support or suspend platforms, and must support at least 5,000 lbs. (22.2 kN) per user attached; or be designed, installed, and used as part of a complete personal
fall arrest system which maintains a safety factor of at least two, and is supervised by a qualified person.
B. RESTRAINT: The structure to which the anchorage connector is attached must sustain static loads applied in the directions permitted by the restraint system of
at least 3,000 lbs. (13.3 kN) When more than one restraint system is attached to an anchorage, the strengths stated above must be multiplied by the number of
restraint systems attached to the anchorage.
3.0 InstallatIon and Use
WarnIng: Do not alter or intentionally misuse this equipment; your safety depends on it. Consult with DBI-SALA if using this equipment with components or subsystems other
than those described in this manual. Some subsystem and component combinations may interfere with the operation of this equipment.
WarnIng: Consult with your doctor if you doubt your fitness to safely absorb the shock from a fall arrest. Conditions which could affect your safety include: heart disease, high
blood pressure, blackouts, and vertigo. Age and fitness can seriously affect your ability to withstand falls. Pregnant women and minors must not use this equipment.
3.1 PLAN your system before installation. Consider all factors that will affect your safety during use of this equipment. The following gives important points to consider when
planning your system: A) Select an anchorage that meets the requirements specified in section 2.0. B) Avoid working where system components may be in contact with, or
abrade against, unprotected sharp edges. Inspection frequency should be increased when an anchorage connector is installed around sharp edges. C) Components which
have been subjected to the forces of arresting a fall must be removed from service and destroyed. D) The employer must have a rescue plan when using this equipment.
The employer must have the ability to perform a rescue quickly and safely.
3.2 EMBEDDED CONCRETE ANCHOR INSTALLATION: All three models of anchorage connectors install in the same manner. Select
a location for the anchorage that will provide the best safety to the user. Once a section of concrete column, or a shear wall has
been poured and allowed to cure, place the loop end of the concrete anchor over an exposed section of steel reinforcing bar.
The anchoring rebar must be at least 4 in. (10 cm) from the outside face of the poured concrete. Once the concrete anchor is in
place, forming of the floor or column may continue. The concrete anchor will be secured by making the next pour, and allowing
the concrete to cure. Once forms are removed and the concrete has cured, anchors will remain on the face of a column, or on the
seam between shear wall and bottom side of the floor. See Figure 5.
If the rebar cage has already been completed the single loop anchor strap may be choked around the internal rebar. See Figure 6.
All other stipulations of this manual must still be followed, specifically regarding anchorage strength, position, and concrete curing
before use. This method is for the single loop model only; do not choke the double loop model onto an anchor.
WarnIng: Do not use this anchorage until it is embedded in cured concrete. The concrete is an essential part of the anchorage
strength and using it without concrete support may cause the anchorage connector to fail and could result in serious injury or death.
3.3 REMOVAL OF EMBEDDED CONCRETE ANCHOR: Once the fall hazard has been removed, the embedded concrete anchor must
be removed. Use a knife or scissors to cut the concrete anchor at the concrete seam. When removing a double loop concrete
anchor, make sure the cut is made between the line marked on the attached label and the poured concrete. See Figure 7.
WarnIng: The single loop embedded concrete anchor is not reusable. It must be removed and disposed of once the fall hazard has
been eliminated. The double loop embedded concrete anchor is not meant for more than two (2) installations. Using this product after
removing it from two installations may cause the anchorage connector to fail and could result in serious injury or death.
3.4 SECOND LOCATION INSTALLATION: To install the double loop embedded concrete anchor at a second site, place the loop
created between the end of the wear sleeve and the end stitching over the rebar. Once the anchorage connector is in place,
concrete may be poured into the forms. See Figure 8.
3.5 CONNECTING TO THE ANCHORAGE CONNECTOR: If the installed anchorage connector has a D-ring connector, attach to the
D-ring with a self-locking snap hook or carabiner only. If the installed anchorage connector has a web loop, attach to the web loop
with a self-locking carabiner only. Do not pass the lanyard or lifeline through the anchorage connector D-ring and hook back into
lanyard or lifeline. Ensure connections are fully closed and locked. See Figure 9 for connection of typical fall arrest or restraint
equipment to the anchorage connector. When using an energy absorbing lanyard, connect the energy absorber pack end to the
harness. Ensure self retracting lifeline is positioned so that retraction is not hindered. Always protect the lifeline or lanyard from
abrading against sharp or abrasive surfaces in your work area. Ensure all connections are compatible in size, shape, and strength.
Never connect more than one personal protective system to a single anchorage connector.
4.0 traInIng
It is the responsibility of the user to assure they are familiar with these instructions, and are trained and competent in the
correct care and use of this equipment. The user must also be aware of the operating characteristics, application limits, and the
consequences of improper use of this equipment.
IMPortant: Training must be conducted without exposing the trainee to a fall hazard. Training should be repeated periodically.
5.0 InsPectIon
B efore each use, inspect the D-ring. It must not be damaged, broken, distorted or have any sharp edges, burrs, cracks, worn areas,
or corrosion. Inspect the webbing for fraying, cuts, or discoloration due to exposure to chemicals, fumes or ultraviolet damage. The
equipment should be withdrawn from use immediately if any doubt arise about its condition for safe use or it has been used to
arrest a fall.
Before second installation of a double loop embedded concrete anchorage, inspect the anchorage for any sign of damaged
webbing, stitching, or hardware. If inspection reveals any damage, the anchorage must not be used and must be disposed
of immediately. The
