1.0 PRODUCT APPLICATION
1.1 PURPOSE: The Rescue-Positioning Device is designed to be a component of a rescue-positioning system. The device is intended to lower one or two people simultaneously from an elevated height to a lower level in a positioning operation or rescue situation.
1.2 STANDARDS: Your device conforms to the national or regional standard(s) identied on the front cover of these
instructions. If this product is resold outside the original country of destination, the re-seller must provide these instructions in the language of the country in which the product will be used.
1.3 SUPERVISION: Use of this equipment must be supervised by a Competent Person¹.
1.4 TRAINING: This equipment must be installed and used by persons trained in its correct application. These instructions are to be used
as part of an employee training program as required by national, regional, or local standards. It is the responsibility of the users and installers of this equipment to ensure they are familiar with these instructions, trained in the correct care and use of this equipment, and are aware of the operating characteristics, application limitations, and consequences of improper use of this equipment.
1.5 RESCUE PLAN: When using this equipment and connecting subsystem(s), the employer must have a written rescue plan and the means to implement and communicate that plan to users², authorized persons³, and rescuers4. A trained, on-site rescue team is recommended. Team members should be provided with the equipment and techniques necessary to perform a
successful rescue. Training should be provided on a periodic basis to ensure rescuer prociency. Rescuers should be provided
with these instructions.
1.6 AFTER A FALL: If the device is subjected to the forces of arresting a fall, it must be removed from service immediately, clearly tag it “DO NOT USE”, and then either destroyed or forwarded to 3M for replacement or repair.
2.0 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
2.1 CAPACITY: The user capacity of a complete Fall Protection system is limited by its lowest rated maximum capacity component. For example, if your connecting subsystem has a capacity that is less than your harness, you must comply with the capacity requirements of your connecting subsystem. See the manufacturer instructions for each component of your system for capacity requirements.
2.2 DESCENT PATH AND LANDING AREA CLEARANCE: The planned descent path must be unobstructed. The landing area must be clear of obstructions to permit safe landing of the user. Failure to provide an unobstructed descent path and landing area may result in serious injury. Maintain a minimum distance of 1 ft. (31 cm) away from any vertical surface to ensure safe descent.
2.3 ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS: Use of this equipment in areas with environmental hazards may require additional precautions to prevent injury to the user or damage to the equipment. Hazards may include, but are not limited to: heat, chemicals, corrosive environments, high voltage power lines, explosive or toxic gases, moving machinery, sharp edges, or
overhead materials that may fall and contact the user or device. Contact 3M Technical Services for further clarication.
2.4 SHARP EDGES: Avoid using this equipment where system components will be in contact with, or scrape against, sharp edges and abrasive surfaces. All sharp edges and abrasive surfaces must be covered with protective material when contact is unavoidable.
2.5 SWING FALLS: Swing Falls occur when the anchorage point is not directly above the point where a fall occurs (see Figure
5). The force of striking an object in a swing fall may cause serious injury or death. Do not permit a swing fall if injury could occur. Minimize swing falls by working as directly below the anchorage point as possible. The required Fall Clearance (FC) of the user increases as User Work Radius (W) increases, since the total fall distance will be greater than if the user had fallen directly below the anchorage point.
2.6 COMPONENT COMPATIBILITY: 3M equipment is designed for use with 3M approved components and subsystems only. Substitutions or replacements made with non-approved components or subsystems may jeopardize compatibility of equipment and may affect the safety and reliability of the complete system.
2.7 CONNECTOR COMPATIBILITY: Connectors are compatible with connecting elements when the size and shape of either component does not cause the connector to inadvertently open, regardless of orientation. Connectors must comply with applicable standards. Connectors must be fully closed and locked during use. 3M Connectors (snap hooks and carabiners)
are designed to be used only as specied in each instruction manual. Ensure connectors are compatible with the
system components to which they are connected. Do not use equipment that is non-compatible. Use of non-compatible components may cause the connector to unintentionally disengage (see Figure 3). If the connecting element to which a connector attaches is undersized or irregular in shape, a situation could occur where the connecting element applies a force to the gate of the connector (A). This force could then cause the gate to open (B), disengaging the connector from the connecting element (C).
1 Competent Person: One who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the surroundings or working conditions which are
unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to employees, and who has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.
2 User: A person who performs activities while protected by a Fall Protection system. 3 Authorized Person: A person assigned by the employer to perform duties at a location where the person will be exposed to a fall hazard 4 Rescuer: A person using the Rescue system to perform an assisted rescue.
2.8 MAKING CONNECTIONS: All connections must be compatible in size, shape, and strength. See Figure 4 for examples of inappropriate connections. Do not attach snap hooks and carabiners:
A. To a D-ring to which another connector is attached.
B. In a manner that would result in a load on the gate. Large-throat snap hooks should not be connected to standard-
size D-Rings or other connecting elements, unless the snap hook has a gate strength of 3,600 lbf (16 kN) or greater.
C. In a false engagement, where size or shape of the connector or connecting element is not compatible and, without
visual conrmation, would seem to be fully engaged.
D. To each other.
E. Directly to webbing or rope lanyard or tie-back material, unless the instruction manuals for both the lanyard and
connector specically allow such a connection.
F. To any object whose size or shape does not allow the connector to fully close and lock, or that could cause connector
roll-out.
G. In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under load.

3.0 INSTALLATION
Installation of the Device must be supervised by a Qualied Person1. The installation must be certied by a
;
Competent Person as meeting the criteria for a Certied Anchorage, or that it is capable of supporting the potential forces that could be encountered during a fall.
3.1 PLANNING: Plan your Device and how it will be used before starting your work. Account for all factors that may affect
your safety before, during, and after a fall. Consider all requirements, limitations, and specications dened in Section 2
and Table 1.
3.2 INSTALLING THE RESCUE-POSITIONING DEVICE: The anchorage point for the Rescue-Positioning Device must be
capable of supporting a 2,500 lb. minimum static load in the direction of operational pull. The anchor may be a tripod,
building structure, or other suitable anchoring point. The unit may be attached in the following manner:
• Through the top loop in the Rescue-Positioning Device housing using the connection hook. The hook (A) can be connected directly to the anchor point (B) or to the connection sling which has been attached to the
anchorage via a straight loop, choker, or basket loop. See Figure 6.1.
• Through the top loop in the Rescue-Positioning Device housing using the connection sling. Use a choker or basket loop to connect the sling to the Rescue-Positioning Device. Attachment can be made directly through the top loop in the Rescue-Positioning Device housing using the connection sling provided. Use a choker or basket loop to
connect the sling to the Rescue-Positioning Device. See Figure 6.2.
• Rig the Rescue-Positioning Device system directly above the intended working area. If the Rescue-
Positioning Device is not rigged directly overhead, a swing fall situation could occur. Swing falls occur when a worker
swings and strikes an immovable object. See Figure 5.
After attaching the Rescue-Positioning Device onto the proper anchorage over the working area, attach the travelling
pulley (A) to the personnel support device using a self-locking carabiner (B). See Figure 7.
An independent fall protection system is required by law (OSHA) when using this system during normal work
;
positioning operations. Do not connect fall protection equipment directly to the Rescue-Positioning Device system. Fall protection systems must be connected to an independent anchor with a minimum tensile strength of 5,000 lbf (22 kN), measured in direction of possible fall.
4.0 USE
4.1 BEFORE EACH USE: Verify that your work area and Fall Arrest System meet all criteria dened in Section 2 and that
a formal Rescue Plan is in place. Inspect the Rescue-Positioning Device per the ‘User’ inspection points dened on the Inspection and Maintenance Log” (Table 2). If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, do not use the device. Remove the device from service and destroy, or contact 3M regarding replacement or repair.
4.2 BODY SUPPORT: When using the Rescue-Positioning Device, it is recommended that a work-seat or boatswain’s chair be
used. A full body harness should also be worn for connection to the independent Fall Protection system. The D-ring on the
back between the shoulders (dorsal D-ring) should be used to connect the personal fall protection system.
Do not use a body belt with this equipment. Body belts do not support your entire body, which may result in
;
serious injury.
4.3 ANCHORAGE: Anchorage connections shall be stabilized to prevent unwanted movement or disengagement of the Rescue
System from the anchorage. Verify the system connection by pretensioning the system before applying the intended load.
Anchorage connectors must not be attached to anchorages where such attachment would reduce the anchorage system strength below the anchorage specifcations in Table 1.
Anchorage requirements vary with the fall protection application. The mounting structure on which the equipment is placed
must meet the Anchorage specications dened in Table 1. A suitable anchorage connector shall be used for rigging the
connection of lanyards and lifelines to structural members. A lanyard shall not be connected back onto itself for use as an anchorage connector unless designed for this purpose.
Anchorages used in fall arrest applications must conform to ANSI Z359.2. When an anchorage is used for both fall
;
arrest and rescue applications, the greater load requirements shall apply.
4.4 FALL CLEARANCE: Should the operator release the line while in the free mode, there must be sufcient clearance in the area below to avoid hitting an obstruction or a lower level. Fall clearance is the measure of distance between a user and the next obstruction below them. Before use of this product, the user should determine how much Fall Clearance is necessary to prevent
them from striking an obstruction should they fall. With the anchorage located directly overhead, it is recommended that a
minimum of 2 ft. (0.6 m) of clearance be maintained between the work level and the nearest obstruction in the fall path.
4.4 APPLICATIONS: The Device may be used in the following methods:
A. Positioning: In this application, the Rescue-Positioning Device is used as part of a complete positioning and personnel
riding system. Such systems typically include a full body harness, boatswain’s chair or work-seat, independent personal
fall protection system, and the Rescue-Positioning Device.
B. Rescue: In this application, the Rescue-Positioning Device is used as part of a complete rescue system. Such systems
typically include a full body harness or rescue sling, anchorage connector (i.e. carabiner, etc.) and the Rescue-Positioning Device.
11
When using this equipment for personnel, federal law (OSHA) requires a secondary or back-up Fall Protection
;
system be used. The back-up or secondary fall protection system is not required in applications where the Rescue­Positioning Device is only used to retrieve personnel (i.e. emergency rescue operations).
4.5 OPERATION OF THE RESCUE-POSITIONING DEVICE:
A. Before securing the Rescue-Positioning Device system, operate the unit so the silver indicator ag (A) is showing and
the unit is in a locked position. Pull down the connector (B) to ensure the device is locked. See Figure 8.
B. Connect yourself or other worker to the personnel support device. If the rescue sling is used, slip it over the shoulders.
Position the rescue sling below the arms and move the adjuster buckle to tighten. See Figure 9. If a work-seat, accident cradle (3610000), or other support device is used, follow the instructions for that equipment.
C. To raise, pull on the free end of the rope with a smooth hand-over-hand action or use the optional rope gripping
handle. To lock it in position, raise until the silver indicator ag is showing. Gradually release the rope. See Figure 10.
D. To lower, grasp the free rope and raise it slightly until the orange indicator ag appears. This will occur approximately
every two inches (5 cm) of personnel travel. When the orange indicator appears, lowering may begin. Lower by using a hand-over-hand action or the optional gripping handle. To position, raise slightly until the indicator ag is showing silver. The unit will now be locked in position. Always maintain safe speeds when raising or lowering. See Figure 10.
An optional rope gripping handle (9503008 right hand, 9503037 left hand) may be used to aid in raising or lowering
operations. To operate, pull back on the spring loaded jaw and insert the rope. Raise or lower as required. To reposition,
release the jaw and move it to the desired location. Release the jaw to lock it in place. See Figure 10. An optional method
to aid in lowering yourself can be used; the free rope end can be passed through a D-ring and/or connecting hook and then controlled easily by hand. Raising or lowering may be done by the user or an assistant.
If rope tension eases during lowering, the person being lowered may have reached a work level or obstruction.
;
Do not continue operation without communicating with the person being lowered. Always maintain tension on the personnel line. Slack line could cause a free fall situation.
Do not use the Rescue-Positioning Device for lifting or lowering more than one person per trip.
;
Operate the device by manual power only. Do not use power winches or other similar devices to operate this
;
system.
4.6 AFTER A RESCUE: The Rescue-Positioning Device must be removed from service following use in a rescue event. The Rescue-Positioning Device should then be destroyed or sent to an authorized service center for inspection and repair.
4.7 USE WITH A HORIZONTAL SYSTEM: In applications where the Rescue-Positioning Device is used in conjunction with a horizontal system, compatibility between the Rescue-Positioning Device and horizontal system components must be
achieved. Horizontal systems must be designed and installed under the supervision of a qualied person.
5.0 INSPECTION
Inspection criteria must be set by the user or manufacturer and cannot be less than what is specied in these
;
intstructions.
5.1 INSPECTION FREQUENCY:
additionally, by a Competent Person other than the user monthly and annually. Extreme working conditions (harsh
environment, prolonged use, etc.) may require increasing the frequency of inspections. Annual servicing shall include, but
not be limited to, an intensive inspection and cleaning of all internal and external components. Failure to provide proper
service may considerably shorten product life and could endanger performance. A record of annual service dates can be found on the face label of the Rescue-Positioning Device. Inspection procedures are described in the “Inspection and
Maintenance Log” (Table 2). Results of each User and Competent Person inspection should be recorded on copies of the “Inspection and Maintenance Log”.
5.2 DEFECTS: If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, remove the Rescue-Positioning Device from service
immediately and tag it “DO NOT USE”. Do not attempt to repair the device. Only 3M or parties authorized in writing by 3M
may make repairs to this equipment.
5.3 PRODUCT LIFE: The functional life of the Rescue-Positioning Device is determined by work conditions and maintenance. As long as the product passes inspection criteria, it may remain in service.
The Rescue-Positioning Device shall be inspected by the user before each use and,
6.0 MAINTENANCE, SERVICING, STORAGE
6.1 CLEANING: Periodically clean the exterior of the device with water and mild detergent. Position the device so excess
water will drain out. Clean labels as required.
Rope: Clean rope with water and mild detergent. Rinse and thoroughly air dry. Do not force dry with heat.
Immediately wash the entire rope assembly if it has been exposed to acidic vapors.
If the rope comes in contact with liquid or solid acids, remove it from service and wash it with a water and mild
;
detergent solution. Do not return the system to service without it rst being inspected by a qualied inspector. Acids in contact with rope for extended periods of time can weaken the rope without visible evidence of damage. Only a qualied inspector can determine rope status.

6.2 SERVICE: Only 3M or parties authorized in writing by 3M may make repairs to this equipment. If the Rescue-Positioning Device has been subject to fall force or inspection reveals an unsafe or defective conditions, remove the system from service and destroy. Rope replacement, as well as additional maintenance and servicing procedures, must be completed by a factory authorized service center.
6.4 EMERGENCY RELEASE OF JAMMED ROPE: If the load has been raised very close to the Rescue-Positioning Device unit, it may not appear possible to reach the lowering mode (orange indicator). However, an override system consisting of an override ferrule and lever (see steps 1 & 3) is provided to release the brake. To override the brake, continue raising the load and then lower it. Repeat as required until lowering mode is reached. If this does not work, remove the load and use the procedure below:
Step 1: Remove the load and the screw or plug (A). See Figure 11.
Step 2: Insert a nail or similar object at an angle into the screw hole. The nail should be 2 in. (2.54 cm) long with 1/8
in. (.32 cm) diameter. See Figure 12.
Step 3: Tip the nail (A) as shown to activate the brake over-ride lever. The brake override lever (B) is located internally
on the side opposite the nail. The override lever may be partially visible through the screw hole. Some force may be required to move the override lever. See Figure 13.
Step 4: While maintaining pressure on the nail, pull down on the line as shown. Pull out enough line to easily allow the
lowering mode to be reached. Replace the screw or plug. See Figure 14.
6.3 STORAGE AND TRANSPORT: Store and transport the Rescue Positioning Device in a cool, dry, clean environment out of direct sunlight. Avoid areas where chemical vapors may exist. Thoroughly inspect the device after extended storage.
6.4 CHEMICAL HAZARDS: Solutions containing acids, alkali or other caustic chemicals, particularly at elevated
temperatures, may damage the Rescue-Positioning Device. When working with such chemicals, frequent inspection of
the Rescue-Positioning Device must be completed. Contact 3M if doubt exists concerning use of this equipment around
chemical hazards.
6.5 HEAT: The Rescue-Positioning Device is not intended for use in environments where incendiary sparking could cause an
explosion or re. Use of this equipment is prohibited where there the rope could come in contact with power lines, live cables, etc. See Table 1 for maximum service temperature.
