     Be sure to consult Section 5 of this instruction manual for details on 
anchorage considerations, as the anchorage and its relationship to the 
walking/working surface will be an important factor in determining 
suitability and could contribute to the outcome of a fall event.  Use of an 
anchor point that is not properly rated could lead to a catastrophic failure 
of your personal fall arrest system, which may result in serious injury or 
death.  
 
 
Direct Overhead Applications:  This product is suitable for use in any 
application where the properly rated anchorage is directly above the 
walking/working surface, and allows for a maximum Free-Fall Distance of 
2 feet. 
 
Horizontal Lifelines:  This product is suitable for use in any application 
where a horizontal lifeline has been installed under the guidance of a 
qualified person, and where the Free-Fall Distance does not exceed 2 
feet. 
 
Residential Construction:  This product is suitable for use in residential 
construction applications provided the anchorage meets the basic 
requirements outlined in Section 5 of this instruction manual. 
 
General Construction:  This product is suitable for use in general 
construction applications provided the anchorage meets the basic 
requirements outlined in Section 5 of this instruction manual, Free-Fall 
does not exceed 2 feet, and there is no exposure to a sharp leading 
edge. 
 
Climbing/Fixed Ladders:  This product is suitable for use on fixed ladders 
or in conjunction with fixed ladder equipment, provided that the 
anchorage meets the basic requirements outlined in Section 5 of this 
instruction manual and provided that it is used in conjunction with a Full 
Body Harness (FBH) containing a front or chest d-ring.  Free-Fall must 
not exceed 2 feet. 
 
General Industrial Use:  This product is suitable for use in general 
industrial applications provided the anchorage meets the basic 
requirements of Section 5 of this manual and provided that it is not 
exposed to sharp edges, electrical hazards or prolonged exposure to 
highly corrosive environments or substances. 
 
Industrial Lift Trucks:  This product is suitable for use in industrial lift 
trucks and order pickers.

total weight of the user (including clothing, tools and equipment) exceeds 
310 lbs. 
 
Power Transmission:  Use of this product in areas where the lifeline may 
come in contact with electrical hazards is prohibited (with the exception 
of model # 7270KV).  FallTech recommends the use of Aramid webbing 
SRL’s (Kevlar®, Nomex® or Dyneema®) for these applications.
