1.0 APPLICATIONS
1.1 PURPOSE: The tie-off adapter, boom belt, and scaffold choker is designed to be used as an anchorage
connector for a personal fall arrest, restraint, work positioning, suspension, or rescue system. Tie-off
adapters and scaffold chokers may be used as an anchorage connector for a horizontal lifeline if the system
is designed, installed and used under the supervision of a qualifi ed person. Do not hang, lift, or support tools
or equipment from this equipment.
• Kevlar web tie-off adapters should be used when working with high temperature tools or materials, or
in high temperature environments (foundries, chemical manufacturing, steel fabrication, emergency
rescue services, fi re services, welders, oil industry, nuclear industry).
A. PERSONAL FALL ARREST: The anchorage connector is used as a component of a personal fall arrest
system. Personal fall arrest systems typically include a full body harness and a connecting subsystem,
(energy absorbing lanyard). Maximum permissible free fall is 6 feet.
B. RESTRAINT: The anchorage connector is used as a component of a restraint system to prevent the
user from reaching a fall hazard. Restraint systems typically include a full body harness and a lanyard or
restraint line. No vertical free fall permitted.
C. WORK POSITIONING: The anchorage connector is used as a component of a work positioning system
to support the user at a work position. Work positioning systems typically include a full body harness,
positioning lanyard, and a back-up personal fall arrest system. Maximum permissible free fall is 2 feet.
D. PERSONNEL RIDING: The anchorage connector is used as a component of a personnel riding system
to suspend or transport the user vertically. Personnel riding systems typically include a full body
harness, boatswain's chair or seat board, and a back-up personal fall arrest system. No vertical free fall
permitted.
E. RESCUE: The anchorage connector is used as a component of a rescue system. Rescue systems are
configured depending on the type of rescue. No vertical free fall permitted.
1.2 LIMITATIONS: Consider the following application limitations before using this product:
A. CAPACITY: These anchorage connectors are designed for use by persons with a combined weight
(clothing, tools, etc.) of no more than 310 lbs. No more than one personal protective system may be
connected at one time.
B. FREE FALL: Personal fall arrest systems used with this equipment must be rigged to limit the free fall to
6 feet (ANSI Z359.1). See personal fall arrest system manufacturer’s instructions for more information.
Restraint systems must be rigged so that no vertical free fall is possible. Work positioning systems must
be rigged so that free fall is limited to 2 feet or less. Personnel riding systems must be rigged so that no
vertical free fall is possible. Rescue systems must be rigged so that no vertical free fall is possible.

C. FALL CLEARANCE: See Figure 2. There must be sufficient clearance below the user to arrest a fall
before the user strikes the ground or other obstruction. The clearance required is dependent on the
following factors:
• Elevation of anchorage connector • Connecting subsystem length
• Deceleration distance • Movement of harness attachment element
• Worker height • Free fall distance
See personal fall arrest system manufacturer’s instructions for more information.
D. SWING FALLS: See Figure 3. Swing falls occur when the
anchorage point is not directly above the point where a fall
occurs. The force of striking an object in a swing fall may
cause serious injury or death. Minimize swing falls by working
as close to the anchorage point as possible. Do not permit
a swing fall if injury could occur. Swing falls will significantly
increase the clearance required when a self retracting lifeline
or other variable length connecting subsystem is used.
E. 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,
gases, moving machinery, and sharp edges. Contact DBI-SALA
if you have questions about using this equipment where
environmental hazards exist.

1.3 APPLICABLE STANDARDS: Refer to national standards, including ANSI Z359.1; and local, state, and
federal requirements for more information on personal fall arrest systems and associated components.
2.0 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
2.1 COMPATIBILITY OF COMPONENTS: DBI-SALA equipment is designed for use with DBI-SALA approved
components and subsystems only. Substitutions or replacements made with non-approved components
or subsystems may jeopardize compatibility of equipment and may effect the safety and reliability of the
complete system.
2.2 COMPATIBILITY OF CONNECTORS: Connectors are considered to be compatible with connecting
elements when they have been designed to work together in such a way that their sizes and shapes do
not cause their gate mechanisms to inadvertently open regardless of how they become oriented. Contact
DBI-SALA if you have any questions about compatibility.
Connectors ( hooks, carabiners, and D-rings) must be capable of supporting at least 5,000 lbs. (22.2kN).
Connectors must be compatible with the anchorage or other system components. Do not use equipment that
is not compatible. Non-compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage. See Figure 4. Connectors must
be compatible in size, shape, and strength. Self locking snap hooks and carabiners are required by ANSI
Z359.1 and OSHA.
Figure 4 - Unintentional Disengagement (Roll-out)
If the connecting element that a snap hook (shown) or carabiner attaches to is undersized or irregular in shape, a
situation could occur where the connecting element applies a force to the gate of the snap hook or carabiner. This force
may cause the gate (of either a self-locking or a non-locking snap hook) to open, allowing the snap hook or carabiner to
disengage from the connecting point.
Small ring or
other
non-compatibly
shaped element
1. Force is applied to the
snap hook.
2. The gate presses against the
connecting ring.
3. The gate opens allowing the
snap hook to slip off.
2.3 MAKING CONNECTIONS: Only use self-locking snap hooks and carabiners with this equipment. Only use
connectors that are suitable to each application. Ensure all connections are compatible in size, shape and
strength. Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Ensure all connectors are fully closed and locked.
DBI-SALA connectors (snap hooks and carabiners) are designed to be used only as specifi ed in each
product’s user’s instructions. See Figure 5 for inappropriate connections. DBI-SALA snap hooks and
carabiners should not be connected:
A. To a D-ring to which another connector is attached.
B. In a manner that would result in a load on the gate.
NOTE: Large throat opening snap hooks should not be connected to standard size D-rings or similar objects
which will result in a load on the gate if the hook or D-ring twists or rotates. Large throat snap hooks are
designed for use on fi xed structural elements such as rebar or cross members that are not shaped in a way that
can capture the gate of the hook.

specifically allows
such a connection).
Figure 5 - Inappropriate Connections
F. To any object which is shaped or dimensioned such that the snap hook or carabiner will not close and
lock, or that roll-out could occur.
G. In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under load.
2.4 PERSONAL FALL ARREST SYSTEM: Personal fall arrest systems used with this equipment must meet
applicable state, federal, OSHA, and ANSI requirements. A full body harness must be worn when this
equipment is used as a component of a personal fall arrest system. As required by OSHA, the personal fall
arrest system must be capable of arresting the user’s fall with a maximum arresting force of 1,800 lbs., and
limit the free fall to 6 feet or less. If the maximum free fall distance must be exceeded, the employer must
document, based on test data, that the maximum arresting force will not be exceeded, and the personal fall
arrest system will function properly.
When a free fall greater than 6 feet, and up to a maximum of 12 feet is possible, DBI-SALA recommends
using a personal fall arrest system incorporating a DBI-SALA Force2 Energy Absorbing Lanyard. DBI-SALA
has performed testing using the Force2 Energy Absorbing Lanyard in free falls up to 12 feet to ensure the
maximum arresting force does not exceed 1,800 lbs., and the system functions properly. The results of these
tests are listed in the user instruction manual provided with Force2 Energy Absorbing Lanyards.
2.5 ANCHORAGE STRUCTURE: This equipment is intended to be installed on structures capable of meeting the
anchorage strength requirements specifi ed below. The anchorage connector must be of suffi cient length to
wrap completely around the anchorage.
2.6 ANCHORAGE STRENGTH: The anchorage strength required is dependent on the application. Following are
anchorage strength requirements for specifi c applications:
A. FALL ARREST: The structure to which the anchorage connector is attached must sustain static loads
applied in the directions permitted by the fall arrest system of at least: 3,600 lbs. with certification of a
qualified person, or 5,000 lbs. without certification. See ANSI Z359.1 for certification definition. When
more than one personal fall arrest system is attached to an anchorage, the strengths stated above must
be multiplied by the number of personal fall arrest systems attached to the anchorage.
From OSHA 1926.500 and 1910.66: Anchorages used for attachment of a personal fall arrest system
shall be independent of any anchorage being used to support or suspend platforms, and must support at
least 5,000 lbs. per user attached; or be designed, installed, and used as part of a complete personal fall
arrest system which maintains a safety factor of at least two, and is supervised by a qualified person.
5
B. RESTRAINT: The structure to which the anchorage connector is attached must sustain static loads
applied in the directions permitted by the restraint system of at least 3,000 lbs. When more than one
restraint system is attached to an anchorage, the strengths stated above must be multiplied by the
number of restraint systems attached to the anchorage.
C. WORK POSITIONING: The structure to which the anchorage connector is attached must sustain
static loads applied in the directions permitted by the work positioning system of at least 3,000 lbs.,
or twice the potential impact load, whichever is greater. When more than one work positioning system
is attached to an anchorage, the strengths stated above must be multiplied by the number of work
positioning systems attached to the anchorage.
D. PERSONNEL RIDING: The structure to which the anchorage connector is attached must sustain static
loads applied in the directions permitted by the personnel riding system of at least 2,500 lbs. When
more than one personnel riding system is attached to an anchorage, the strengths stated above must be
multiplied by the number of personnel riding systems attached to the anchorage.
E. RESCUE: The structure to which the anchorage connector is attached must sustain static loads applied
in the directions permitted by the rescue system of at least 2,500 lbs. When more than one rescue
system is attached to an anchorage, the strengths stated above must be multiplied by the number of
rescue systems attached to the anchorage.

3.5 CONNECTING TO THE ANCHORAGE CONNECTOR: Connect to the installed anchorage connector with
a self locking snap hook or self locking carabiner only. For tie-off adapters, connect your subsystem to the
small D-ring only (do not attach to both D-rings, see Figure 21). Do not use a knot to connect a lifeline to
the anchorage connector. Do not pass lanyard or lifeline through the
Figure 21
anchorage connector D-ring and hook back into lanyard or lifeline.
Ensure connections are fully closed and locked. See Figure 22
for connection of typical fall arrest or restraint equipment to the
anchorage connector. When using an energy absorbing lanyard,
connect the energy absorber "pack" end to the harness. Ensure self
retracting lifeline is positioned so that retraction is not hindered.
Always protect lifeline or lanyard from abrading against sharp or
abrasive surfaces in your work area. Ensure all connections are
compatible in size, shape, and strength. Never connect more than one
personal protective system to a single anchorage connector.

IMPORTANT: If this equipment has been subjected to fall arrest forces it must be immediately removed from
service and destroyed.
thimble, ferrules, rivets, and adjuster buckle. These items must not be damaged, broken, distorted
or have any sharp edges, burrs, cracks, worn parts, or corrosion.
Step 2. Webbing: Inspect the anchorage connector webbing and stitching. The webbing must be free of
frayed, cut or broken fi bers. Check for tears, abrasions, mold, or discoloration. The webbing must be
free of knots, excessive soiling, heavy paint build-up, and rust staining. Check for chemical or heat
damage, indicated by brown, discolored, or brittle areas. Check for ultraviolet degradation, indicated
by discoloration and the presence of splinters or slivers on the webbing surface. Check for pulled or
cut stitches. Broken stitches may be an indication that the anchorage connector has been impact
loaded and must be removed from service. All the above factors are known to reduce the strength
of the anchorage connector. Damaged or questionable anchorage connectors must be removed from
service.
10
Wire Rope: Inspect the wire rope for cuts, kinks, broken wires, bird-caging, corrosion, welding
splatter, chemical contact areas, rust, corrosion, broken wires, severely abraded areas or other
obvious faults. Inspect thimbles for cracks or damage.
Step 3. Ensure the condition of the anchorage will support the anchorage connector loads. See section 2.6.
An anchorage connector connected to a damaged anchorage must not be used.
Step 4. Ensure the anchorage connector is securely attached to the anchoring structure. If anchorage
connector is loose, do not use. Reconnect the anchorage connector to the anchorage according to
section 3.3.
