To reduce the risks associated with working with a Full Body Harness which, if not avoided, could result in
serious injury or death:
-
Inspect the device before each use, at least annually, and after any fall event. Inspect in accordance with the User
Instructions.
-
If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, remove the device from service and destroy it.
-
Any device that has been subject to fall arrest or impact force must be immediately removed from service and
destroyed.
-
Ensure the harness is worn correctly, appropriately sized, and properly adjusted.
-
Ensure all connecting subsystems (e.g. lanyards) are kept free from all hazards including, but not limited to,
entanglement with other workers, yourself, moving machinery, or other surrounding objects.
-
Ensure that fall protection systems/subsystems assembled from components made by different manufacturers are
compatible and meet the requirements of applicable standards, including the ANSI Z359 or other applicable fall
protection codes, standards, or requirements. Always consult a Competent or Qualified Person before using these
systems.
•
To reduce the risks associated with working at height which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or
death:
-
Ensure your health and physical condition allow you to safely withstand all of the forces associated with working at
height. Consult with your doctor if you have any questions regarding your ability to use this equipment.
-
Never exceed allowable capacity of your fall protection equipment.
-
Never exceed maximum free fall distance of your fall protection equipment.
-
Do not use any fall protection equipment that fails pre-use or other scheduled inspections, or if you have concerns about
the use or suitability of the equipment for your application. Contact 3M Technical Services with any questions.
-
Some subsystem and component combinations may interfere with the operation of this equipment. Only use compatible
connections. Consult 3M prior to using this equipment in combination with components or subsystems other than those
described in the User Instructions.
-
Use extra precautions when working around moving machinery (e.g. top drive of oil rigs), electrical hazards, extreme
temperatures, chemical hazards, explosive or toxic gases, sharp edges, or below overhead materials that could fall onto
you or your fall protection equipment.
-
Use Arc Flash or Hot Works devices when working in high heat environments.
-
Avoid surfaces and objects that can damage the user or equipment.
-
Ensure there is adequate fall clearance when working at height.
-
Never modify or alter your fall protection equipment. Only 3M or parties authorized in writing by 3M may make repairs to

Do not use a body belt for fall arrest applications. Use only a Full Body Harness.
-
Minimize swing falls by working as directly below the anchorage point as possible.
-
If training with this device, a secondary fall protection system must be utilized in a manner that does not expose the
trainee to an unintended fall hazard.
-
Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment when installing, using, or inspecting the device/system.
