MODES OF USE
A work positioning system must always be maintained as taut as possible from the anchor
�
point to the belayed person (avoid rope slack).
When working in fall arrest note that
�
- an energy absorber according to EN 355 is needed that reduces dynamic forces to max.
6 kN.
- the lanyard including fall arrest systems and connection elements must not exceed 2 m.
- a clearance of 7m underneath the user is needed to avoid ground impact.
MODES OF USE
This anchor device can be used in six different configurations:
It is the responsibility of the user to have sufficient understanding of the structure being clim-
bed to ensure that suitable anchor points are selected for fall protection. The user is responsi-
ble for selecting the appropriate configuration of pulleySAVER for the anchor point selected.
1. Double strand – Swinging
2. Choked
3. Double strand – Wrapped
4. Double strand – Constricted
5. Double strand – using the Prusik loop with thimble
6. Equalising anchor – using the equaLIZA
CAUTION!
Please make sure that the Pinto pulley and the thimble on the Prusik loop do not
contact one another, but that they are spaced at a distance from one another. Other-
wise, the thimble might be pulled into the pulley and damage it. (Fig. 0A and 0B )
Ad 1. Double strand – Swinging
fig. 1
In this configuration the pulleySAVER is placed around the structural anchor and the pulley is
passed through the soft eye. The Prusik loop does not pass through the soft eye. The pulley-
SAVER therefore grants great freedom of "swinging" movement in the tree. Note that the form
of the structure (e.g. a branch junction) retains the pulleySAVER in place.
