SRD Inspect for loose bolts and bent or damaged parts.
(Figure 13)
Inspect Housing (A) for distortion, cracks, or other damage.
Inspect the Swivel Eye (B) for distortion, cracks, or other damage. The Swivel Eye should be attached
securely to the SRD, but should pivot freely.
The Lifeline (C) should pull out and retract fully without hesitation or creating a slack line condition.
Ensure device locks up when lifeline is jerked sharply. Lockup should be positive with no slipping.
The labels must be present and fully legible (see Figure 19).
Look for signs of corrosion on the entire unit.
Swivel Snap Hook & Impact Inspect the Swivel Snap Hook for signs of damage, corrosion, and working condition. Swivel should
Indicator rotate freely. Inspect the Impact Indicator. If the Red Band is displayed (Indicated Mode), impact
(Figure 14 loading has occurred and the SRD must be removed from service and inspected. Do not attempt to
reset the Impact Indicator. Return the SRD to an authorized service center for resetting. NOTE: The
Swivel will not turn freely when the Impact Indicator is in Indicated Mode.
Wire Rope Lifeline Inspect wire rope for cuts, kinks (A), broken wires (B), bird-caging (C), welding splatter, (D) corrosion,
(Figure 15) chemical contact areas, or severely abraded areas. Slide the cable bumper (E) up and inspect ferrules
(F) for cracks or damage and inspect the wire rope for corrosion and broken wires. Replace the wire
rope assembly if there are six or more randomly distributed broken wires in one lay, or three or more
broken wires in one strand in one lay. A "lay" of wire rope is the length of wire rope it takes for a
strand (the larger groups of wires) to complete one revolution or twist along the rope. Replace the
wire rope assembly if there are any broken wires within 1 inch (25 mm) of the ferrules.
Reserve Lifeline Inspect the reserve lifeline payout. If a fall has been arrested with most of the lifeline out, the reserve
(Figure 16) lifeline may have been deployed. Pull the lifeline out of the SRD until it stops. If a red band (G) is
visible, the reserve lifeline is spent and the unit must be serviced by an authorized service center
before reuse.
SRD-LE Energy Absorber On Self-Retracting Devices with Leading Edge capability (SRD-LEs) verify that the integral Energy
(Figure 17) Absorber has not been activated. There should be no webbing pulled out of the cover (A). The cover
should be secure and free of tears (B) or other damage.
Retrieval Integral Rescue Hand Inspect the Crank Arm (A) for distortion or other damage. Ensure that the Retrieval Handle (B) can be
Crank folded out and secured in the cranking position.
(Figure 18)
Ensure the Retrieval Shift Knob (C) can be pulled out to the unlocked position and then released,
locking the Crank Arm in both the engaged and disengaged positions.
Test the retrieval feature for proper operation by raising and lowering a test weight of at least 75 lbs
(34 kg). When the Retrieval Handle is released, the weight should not move and the Retrieval Handle
should remain in position (no movement). A 'clicking' sound should be audible when raising the load.
