Step 2:
The SW-EX8000 allows for safe and hands free climbing on vertical structures. In the event of an accident, any fall will be immediately arrested. It is necessary to
use this device in combination with a shock absorber to be ANSI Z359.15-2014 compliant. The user must always ensure they are at a lower level than the
SW-EX8000. Maximum working angle between user and device must not exceed 30°.
User must ensure the VLL does not come into contact with any sharp or abrasive surfaces. The SW-EX8000 will automatically trail the user as they move up and
down the VLL. To stop the trailing function of the SW-EX8000 rotate the locking wheel to REST position. As the user needs to move up or down the VLL, they must
rotate the locking wheel back to the GO position.
To remove the SW-EX8000 from the VLL, disconnect the carabiner from the connection slot of the grab and rotate the sliding plate open. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
DISCONNECT WHILE IN USE!!

12.5 TRAILING ROPE GRAB INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
1.
User must inspect the 021-7022 for any obvious signs of damage or defects prior to each use.
2.
User must be aware of, and seek to minimize, any swing fall hazards that may exist.
3.
Ensure adequate fall clearance exists for the equipment being used and associated work operations
4.
When used with an ANSI compliant Energy Absorbing Lanyard (EAL), the energy absorber attaches directly to the users appropriate D-ring, with the opposite
end of the lanyard attaching to the grab.
5.
Rotate the sliding plate open and verify that the position of the rope lock is in the GO position (Step 1).
6.
Insert the rope ensuring the device remains the correct vertical orientation (Step 2).
7.
Rotate the sliding plate closed (Step 3).
8.
Install an ANSI Z359.12 compliant connector through the connection slot (Step 4).
9.
Pull upward on the connector to verify that the rope grab moves freely along the lifeline (Step 5).
10. Proper function of the 021-7022 can be tested by again pulling up on the connector, and then rapidly pulling downward to ensure the grab locks onto the rope
and stops (Step 6). Figure 12 illustrates proper installation of the 021-7022.
