Typical Applications
Use Overview
Use must follow the Guardian lanyard instruction manual. The sequence below is an overview only.
- Inspect first. Check webbing, stitching, energy absorber, and hooks before every use.
- Connect the absorber end. Attach the energy absorbing end to the dorsal D-ring of the full body harness.
- Connect the anchor end. Attach the free end to a compliant anchorage connector rated 5,000 lbs or engineered with a 2:1 safety factor.
- Verify the gates. Confirm every hook gate is fully closed and locked, with no side loading.
- Check clearance. Verify fall clearance below the work surface including free fall, deployment, and harness stretch.
- Limit free fall. Position the anchor to keep free fall at 6 ft or less and minimize swing fall hazards.
Inspection and Retirement
Inspect before every use, and have a competent person perform a documented inspection at least every six months under ANSI Z359.2 practice. Remove the lanyard from service for any of the conditions below.
- Webbing: cuts, fraying, abrasion, burns, chemical damage, or UV fading.
- Stitching: broken, pulled, or abraded threads.
- Energy absorber: any deployment, torn cover, or elongation.
- Hooks: cracks, corrosion, deformation, or gates that do not close and lock automatically.
- Labels: missing or illegible.
Retirement triggers: any fall arrest event, any absorber deployment, or any condition where the inspector cannot positively verify the lanyard is fit for service.
