WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS
1.0 Descripon - The FallTech For Tools™ Tool Tethers are used to connect to the tool or tool aachment to FallTech® Wrist Aachments and Tool Anchors.
2.0 Applicaon - The FallTech For Tools™ Tool Tethers are designed to be used as a component in a dropped object prevenon program. The tool tethering system
is an assembly of components and subsystems to arrest a tool from an accidental drop. The system typically consists of tool aachment, a tool tether, and a tool
anchor. See product labels for maximum load capacity and maximum tether length.
3.0 System Requirements - The FallTech For Tools™ Tool Tethers is designed for use by a single tool with a combined weight no greater than 15 lbs (6.8 kg), based
on the rang of the aachment. DO NOT exceed the capacity of the lowest rated component in the system.
3.1 Compability of Components: Equipment is designed for use with approved components and subsystems only. Substuons or replacements made
with non-approved components or subsystems may jeopardize compability of equipment and may aect the safety and reliability of the complete system.
3.2 Making Connecons: Only use locking connectors with this equipment. Only use connectors that are suitable to each applicaon. Ensure all connecons
are compable in size, shape, and strength. Do not use equipment that is not compable. Visually ensure all connectors are fully closed and locked.
4.0 Installaon
4.1 Pre-Use Inspecon: Inspect the tool tethers thoroughly for missing or damaged parts before aaching it to the tool. Inspect the webbing, looped ends,
and stching for cuts, fraying, and signs of damage to the materials from excessive wear or abrasion. Inspect the carabiners and speed clips for excessive wear,
cracks, or deformies. If any of these condions exist, remove from service.
4.2 Installaon Procedure: Ensure the tool aachment is clean and free of oil, grease, or debris, which could prevent adequate aachment onto the tool or
tool aachment. The Tool Tether should be placed away from the funconal parts of the tool and the connecon point should face away from the center of
gravity if connect directly to the tool. See the gures below for the installaon steps by type of aachment.
4.2.1 Hard Hat Tether Installaon Procedure (Stretch Coil Type): Locate a secure locaon on the inner suspension, an open hole, or slot on the shell
to install the FallTech® Hard Hat Tether. Feed the looped end into the hole or slot and pass the anchorage end connector through the loop to choke
down onto the hard hat, see Figure 1. Open the metal clip and securely aach it to a suitable anchor point such as a full body harness.
4.2.2 Hard Hat Tether Installaon Procedure (Stretch Web Type): Locate a secure locaon on the inner suspension, an open hole, or slot on the shell
to install the FallTech® Hard Hat Tether. Open the plasc cam buckle to release the webbing from the buckle. Slide the end through and around the
hole or slot and feed it back into the cam buckle, see Figure 2. Adjust to the desired length and close the cam buckle. Pull on the web to ensure the
connecon is secure, detach the plasc speed clip and route the anchorage end to a secure anchor point such as a full body harness.
4.2.3 Choke-On Installaon Procedure: Pass the nylon loop through an established hole on the tool, pass the anchorage end connector through the
nylon loop and pull the tool aachment through to choke down onto the tool, see Figure 3. Connect to a suitable anchor point. DO NOT aach tools
over 5 lbs (2.3 kg) to Wrist Anchor or to your full body harness.
4.2.4 Carabiner Installaon Procedure: Unscrew the screw gate and aach to an exisng hole, turn the screw gate to lock it in the closed posion. If
using a twist lock carabiner, ensure it is fully locked closed. DO NOT aach tools over 5 lbs (2.3 kg) to a Wrist Anchor or to your full body harness.
