MAS BFD FlexBelt Twin Instrucciones Para El Uso página 11

Irrespective of this test, the following instructions must be observed in the event of horizontal
or inclined use where there is a risk of falling over an edge:
1. If a risk assessment carried out before starting work reveals that the edge is
"
especially cutting
sheet or sharp concrete edge), the following measures must be observed:
•
before starting work, appropriate steps must be taken to prevent falling over
the edge, or
some form of edge protection must be installed before starting work, or
•
the manufacturer must be contacted.
2. The lanyard has been tested over an edge with an angle of 90 degrees. The user
should be aware of the increased risks that exist when it is possible to fall over an
edge with an angle of less than 90 degrees (measured between the two legs of the
lanyard, for example, when the anchorage point is below the feet of the user, or in
case of a roof rising at an oblique angle) and that additional precautionary measures
or additional tests might be required.
3. The necessary clearance below the edge is:
➢ for all types: with a total weight of 100 kg
➢ for the XXL type: with a total weight of 136 kg
4. This part of the system must always be used in such a manner as to prevent the rope
from becoming slack when being in the vicinity of areas where there is a potential risk
of falling. Only adjust the length of the lanyard when the user is not moving towards
an area where there is a risk of falling.
5. In order to prevent falling and subsequent swinging, the working area and the lateral
movement from the central axis to both sides must be limited to a maximum of 1.50
m.
6. If this BFD Twin lanyard with integrated stretch-type shock absorber is used with a
class C anchor device in accordance with EN 795, the deflection of the horizontal
flexible anchorage line is also to be taken into account when calculating the required
height below the user.
7. Note: When falling over an edge, there is a risk of injury as the person falling may
bounce against other parts or components of the building.
8. For the event of a fall over an edge and subsequent swinging movement, special
rescue measures must be laid down and exercised.
