6 <br />Prior to installation, plan your system: <br />1. Ensure selected installation location(s) for Metal Energy Absorber HLL system(s) will withstand minimum <br />loads as specified by this instruction manual. <br />2. ALWAYS make considerations to eliminate or reduce swing fall hazards. <br />3. Fall clearance for each installation location MUST be calculated by a Qualified Person, and MUST be <br />considered in the selection of PFAS equipment. <br />4. Ensure all components of PFAS are selected and deemed compatible with Metal Energy Absorber HLL <br />system by a Competent Person. <br />5. Ensure entire HLL system design and installation is done under supervision of Qualified Person. NEVER judge <br />HLL tension by eye; ALWAYS measure line sag and keep in concordance with sag requirements specified by <br />this instruction manual. NEVER over-tighten cable. Proper sag in cable reduces forces of Fall Arrest. <br />6. If performing installation at heights over 6’, ALWAYS use a complete and independent PFAS until <br />Metal Energy Absorber HLL System is fully installed and able to withstand forces of Fall Arrest as specified by this <br />instruction manual. Always maintain 100% tie-off. <br />Guardian recommends using 3/8” diameter cable. DO NOT use vinyl/plastic coated cable. <br />MINIMUM 1 Metal Energy Absorber required for systems up to 60’. MINIMUM 2 Metal Energy Absorbers <br />required for systems longer than 60’. Entire HLL system MUST NOT span more than 100’. <br />Installation and Use <br />Installation: <br />Tools needed for installation: <br />• 5/16” (8mm) wrench, 3/4” (19mm) wrench, 19/32” (15mm) wrench, Adjustable wrench, Torque wrench <br />(capable of measuring foot-pounds). <br />1. Select locations for all anchor points in HLL system. Ensure anchor points meet stated strength <br />requirements. Ensure proper fall clearance exists for entire system. <br />2. Lay out as much of HLL system as possible prior to attaching it to anchorage connectors.
