KEPERLUAN SISTEM

• Compatible Connectors: To use Frontline Fall Protection Anchors, connecting devices must include a compatible connector. Compatible connectors must be approved Snaphooks or carabiner which meet OSHA and ANSI standards to be compatible with the member to which they are connected to prevent unintentional disengagement. Snaphooks or carabiners shall be of the locking type designed and used to prevent disengagement of the Snaphooks by the contact of the Snaphooks keeper by the connected member. Frontline PFAS equipment must be used with Frontline equipment only. If a qualified person deems that other manufacturer equipment is compatible, it is under the sole discretion and responsibility of that qualified person, and Frontline assumes no responsibility for any issues arising from any incompatibilities or any liability should there be an incident, fall, or accident.
• Structural Requirement: It is the requirement of the installer and user of the equipment that the substrate where the anchor is being installed can withstand a minimum breaking strength of 5,000 lbs per person or as part of a complete personal fall arrest system, which maintains a safety factor of at least two, and under the supervision and approval of a qualified person.
• Anchorage Substrate Connection: Frontline has tested its product to comply with OSHA and/ or ANSI under a controlled environment and with certain substrates. Frontline cannot and does not guarantee the same performance for different substrates. Frontline anchors will meet or exceed OSHA and/or ANSI requirements, but it’s ultimately up-to the end user/installer/owner of the product to ensure that their specific substrate will resist and withstand the required loads as stated by OSHA and/or ANSI or other governing safety entities. OSHA and/or ANSI anchor compliance and testing covers only the anchor and does not extend to the substrate to which the anchorage or connector is attached. Please contact info@frontlinefall.com jika anda mempunyai sebarang soalan mengenai perkara ini.
• Making connections: When making the anchor connecting device connection, ensure that the connecting equipment is compatible and meets or exceeds OSHA and ANSI standards. Once connected, visually inspect the connection and perform a pull test to ensure that the equipment is locked and fully functioning. If equipment is not working properly or the safety integrity is in question, do NOT use it and consult with a Qualified Person. No more than one PFAS may be connected to a Fall Arrest Anchor at one time.

Ensure all connections are compatible in size, shape, and strength. Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Ensure all connectors are fully closed and locked, and that there’s only one connection point per anchor per person. Perform a few pull tests to verify that the connection has been effective.   Frontline connectors (Snaphooks and carabiners) are designed to be used only as specified in each product’s user instructions.

RAJAH 2 – SAMBUNGAN TIDAK SESUAI

NOTA: Large snap hooks must not be connected to objects, which will result in a load on the gate if the hook twists or rotates, unless the snap hook complies with ANSI Z359.1-2007 or ANSI Z359.12 and is equipped with a 3,600 lb (16 kN) gate. Check the marking on your snap hook to verify its compatibility.

• Personal Fall Arrest System: All PFAS used with this equipment must meet OSHA and ANSI Z359 requirements. A full body harness, along with a compliant connecting device, must be worn when this equipment is used as a component of a PFAS. As required by OSHA, the PFAS must be able to arrest the user’s fall with a maximum arresting force of 1,800 lbs (8 kN) and limit the free fall to 6 ft (1.8 m). Once equipment is subject to a fall or an impact, it must be removed from service.
• Structure Mounting Selection: When selecting a mounting structure, there are various factors to consider.

Some of which are described below, but not all inclusive:

• The type of work being done, the application, and the particular anchor being used
• Select a structural component that can withstand a minimum breaking strength of 5,000 lbs, or as part of a complete personal fall arrest system which maintains a safety factor of at least two, and under the supervision and approval of a qualified person.
• Select a work area that will be free of obstructions.
• Select a work area that will be free of any other recognizable safety hazards.
• Select and overhead anchor when possible. If an overhead anchor is not possible, ensure that all the equipment used to connect the anchor is rated for below the waist tie-off.
• Ensure there are no swing hazards.

If the user is unable to determine whether the anchorage meets the manufacturer’s specification, please contact Frontline at info@frontlinefall.com. Before working with your PFAS: It is required that, before using PFAS, a fall protection plan should be in place and used, including the working conditions and equipment to be used.

Here are some aspects, but not all inclusive, of the items that need to be included in a fall protection plan:

• End user training on the safe use, care, and maintenance of equipment and jobsite conditions before commencing work.
• Prosedur pemeriksaan.
• Kelegaan jatuh dan potensi ayunan jatuh.
• Struktur/substrat berlabuh yang betul untuk menahan beban minimum yang diperlukan.
• A rescue plan in case the end user or someone is subject to a fall.

Jumlah Kelegaan Kejatuhan untuk PFAS: According to OSHA, the total fall clearance distance is the minimum vertical distance between the worker and the lower level that is necessary to ensure the worker does not contact a lower level during a fall. The total fall clearance distance needs to be calculated by the user/employer before a decision is made to use a PFAS. If the available distance is not greater than the total fall clearance distance, it is inappropriate to use the PFAS, and a fall restraint system might be used instead. Total fall clearance distance calculations are simple to perform based on several factors, including but not limited to:

• Lanyard/Self-Retracting Lifeline length, which may vary depending on the device being used and its specifications. See the connecting device user manual for more information.
• Ketinggian di mana lanyard dilabuhkan berbanding dengan tempat hujung yang satu lagi melekat pada abah-abah pekerja.
• Jarak yang akan dilalui oleh pekerja apabila peranti nyahpecutan menyerap tenaga daripada kejatuhan (iaitu, memperlahankannya.)
• Ketinggian pekerja.
• Anjakan D-ring dan faktor keselamatan.

Di bawah ialah ilustrasi untuk membantu membimbing pengguna untuk menentukan kelegaan jatuh minimum dan bahaya hayunan:

RAJAH 3

This information is for reference only; it’s ultimately up to the employer/user of the product to make the correct fall clearance calculations, as there are varying factors that can impact the distance.

Ayunan Jatuh: Swing fall hazards or pendulum effect occur when the anchorage is not directly overhead and/or there is some lateral distance away from the falling worker. In cases where the anchorage is not completely directly overhead, or behind/underneath, if the anchor is anchored below the waist or at foot level, the total fall distance and pendulum struck by hazards can increase significantly. Users must always be anchored overhead and working directly underneath the anchor. When the anchor is installed at waist or foot level, then users must work within approved working angles anddirection loading as per specific anchor requirements.

Employer/user must avoid swing hazards at all times. See Direction Loading and approved angles for the specific anchor to avoid swing hazards or even anchor failure.

KEPERLUAN PEMERIKSAAN
This anchor and any other PFAS shall be inspected BEFORE each use. The program administrator, authorized user, and/or rescuer inspecting the product shall have the proper training on the use, maintenance, care, and inspection of this product.
