BOOT
Height-securing device with
a memory function
INTENDED USE
The height-securing device BOOT is part of per-
sonal protective equipment (PPE) of category III
to prevent falls from heights. It only serves as
an adjustable connector for restraint and ar-
resting on platforms, roofs etc. The individual
adjustment of the pull-out length prevents falls
over edges.
The height-securing device BOOT only serves to
secure persons. This equipment may only be
used by persons familiar with personal fall pre-
vention equipment and the risks associated
with working in areas where there is a risk of
falling.
Maximum number of users: person
Maximum user weight including clothing and
equipment: kg
All other uses are deemed improper. The com-
pany BORNACK will not be liable for any ensu-
ing damages. The user bears the sole risk.

Always check every time
before use!
• The personal protective equipment (PPE) may
no longer be used in the case of even very mi-
nor faults.
• Faulty PPE components may only be tested or
repaired by BORNACK or in a workshop au-
thorised in writing by BORNACK.
• Regular inspections are essential because the
safety of the user depends on the eciency
and durability of the PPE.
• The user must have completely read and un-
derstood the User Manual before use.
VISUAL INSPECTION
• PPE complete: all components in place.
• Check that the system is undamaged. All
seams are undamaged. There are no visible
signs of damage to the textile components
nor can faults be felt with the hands.
• Are there no obvious signs of damage to the
fittings, D-rings, buckles or connectors acc. to
EN .
• Product identification legible.
• The last inspection by an expert was carried
out within the past months.
FUNCTION TEST
• The fasteners and locks of the connectors acc.
to EN are functional.
• The lanyard (harness strap) can be pulled out
completely.
• Slider for the setting function of the pull-out
length min. / max. works.
• The memory function for repeated pull-out to
the set length works.
• Blocking function when jerked is activated,
also for maximum length adjustment.
INFORMATION BEFORE USE
EN
PREPARATION
A Anchor points must be adequately strong
(observe kN according to EN and/or
DGUV Regulation -) and should be lo-
cated above the user.
CAUTION: RISK TO LIFE!
If this PPE is used as an arrester system (free fall
is possible), only full body harnesses that com-
ply with EN may be used.
ATTENTION:
If sand or dirt enter the device, this may impact
on its function and cause damage.
ATTENTION:
Ensure that there no transverse loads are exert-
ed onto the swivel element D-ring e.g. due to an
edge.
CAUTION: RISK TO LIFE!
No extension by means of a connecting rope or
additional connectors acc. to EN !

SETTING THE MEMORY FUNCTION
B Place the slider in the first position. Length
setting approx. . m.
C Correct the length: If the length needs to be
corrected during work, the extended slider
can be moved as required. Slider down-
wards – harness strap is lengthened, slider
upwards – harness strap is shortened. Set
required length. Max. . m. For the restraint
function, the length must be selected so that
the fall edges cannot be reached.
D The device can now only be extended to the
set length and rolls up automatically when
moved back to prevent slack.

DISMANTLING
E Return the device to the basic position after
use. Place the slider at the top. The device can
no longer be pulled out.
ATTENTION:
The height-securing device BOOT may not be
‘wound around a structural element.
VERTICAL USE
F If possible, the device must be positioned
perpendicularly above the head of the se-
cured person to prevent swinging in case of a
fall. When attaching the device, ensure that
it is possible to adjust it to dierent belt di-
mensions.
G When positioned above the user, the clear
height below the user must be . m.
H Once the device has been attached to the an-
chor point, the end of the extendible lanyard
(safety karabiner on the tape energy absorb-
er) of the BOOT must be hooked to the rear
arresting D-ring of the full body harness or
on the end of the rear D-ring extension.
ATTENTION:
The energy absorber always needs to be at-
tached to the full body harness and not to the
attachment point.

HORIZONTAL USE
The height-securing device BOOT has also been
tested successfully for horizontal use and a re-
sulting simulated fall over the edge. An edge
radius r = . mm was used. Based on this test,
the height-securing device BOOT is suitable for
use on similar edges, for instance on rolled steel
profiles, wooden beams or rounded parapet
panels.
Regardless of this test, if the device is used hori-
zontally or at an incline where there is a risk of
falling over an edge, the following information
must always be taken into account.
ATTENTION:
If the height-securing device is used on an an-
chor element of type C acc. to DIN EN with
a horizontal flexible anchor line, the swivel
range of the anchor equipment also needs to
be taken into account when determining the
clear height below the user. Observe the infor-
mation in the User manual of the attachment
equipment here.
Carry out a risk assessment:
• Is the fall edge > . mm?
• Is the edge burr-free?
If this is not the case, precautions should be
taken:
• Use a retention system to rule out a fall.
• Attach a suitable edge protection.
ATTENTION:
If used on slanted levels, note that the brake
function may be delayed.
BOOT IN USE
EN
BOOT IN USE
I Anchor points must be adequately strong
(observe kN according to EN and/or
DGUV Regulation -)! The anchor point
must lie above where the person is standing.
J The deection at the edge must be at least
90°.
K Ensure adequate space of at least 4.0 m be-
low the edge.
L To prevent swinging after a fall, the work are-
as or side movements from the middle axles
on both sides must be limited to max. . m.
In other cases, no individual attachment
points should be used, instead e.g. attach-
ment devices of the type C (only if approved
for joint use) or D according to EN should
be used.
ATTENTION:
When falling over an edge there is a risk of inju-
ry during the fall by banging into the building
or parts of the construction.
In the event of a fall over an edge, special meas-
ures need to be defined and practised.
