Thank You
Thank you for your purchase of Miller fall protection equipment manufactured by Honeywell
Safety Products. Miller brand products are produced to meet the highest standards of quality at
our ISO 9001 certi ed facility. Miller equipment will provide you with years of use when cared for
properly.
WARNING
All persons using this equipment must read, understand and follow
all instructions. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
Do not use this equipment unless you are properly trained.
Questions?
It is crucial that the authorized person/user of this equipment read and understand these instructions. In addition, federal law requires employers to ensure that all users are trained in the
proper installation, use, inspection, and maintenance of fall protection equipment. Fall protection
training should be an integral part of a comprehensive safety program.
Proper use of fall arrest systems can save lives and reduce the potential of serious injuries from
a fall. The user must be aware that forces experienced during the arrest of a fall or prolonged
suspension may cause bodily injury. Consult a physician if there is any question about the
user’s ability to use this product. Pregnant women and minor children must not use this product.

1.0 General Requirements,
Warnings and Limitations
All warnings and instructions shall be
provided to authorized persons/users.
All authorized persons/users must reference
the regulations governing occupational
safety, as well as applicable ANSI or
CSA standards. Please refer to product
labeling for information on speci c OSHA
regulations, and ANSI and CSA standards
met by product.
Proper precautions should always be taken
to remove any obstructions, debris, material,
or other recognized hazards from the work
area that could cause injuries or interfere with
the operation of the system.
All equipment must be inspected before
each use according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
All equipment should be inspected by a
quali ed person on a regular basis.
To minimize the potential for accidental
disengagement, a competent person must
ensure system compatibility.
Equipment must not be altered in any
way. Repairs must be performed only by
the manufacturer, or persons or entities
authorized in writing by the manufacturer.
Any product exhibiting deformities, unusual
wear, or deterioration must be immediately
discarded.
Any equipment subject to a fall must be
removed from service.
The authorized person/user shall have
a rescue plan and the means at hand to
implement it when using this equipment.
Never use fall protection equipment for
purposes other than those for which it was
designed. Fall protection equipment should
never be used for towing or hoisting.
Equipment must not be exposed to
environmental hazards and chemicals which
may produce a harmful effect.
Use in a corrosive or caustic environment
dictates a more frequent inspection and
servicing program to ensure the integrity of
the product is maintained.

User Instructions - English
Do not allow equipment to come in contact
with anything that will damage it including,
but not limited to, sharp, abrasive, rough
or high-temperature surfaces, welding,
heat sources, electrical hazards, or moving
machinery.
Do not expose the equipment to any
hazard which it is not designed to
withstand. Consult the manufacturer in
cases of doubt.
Always check for obstructions below the
work area to make sure potential fall path
is clear.
Allow adequate fall clearance below the
work surface.
Never remove product labels, which include
important warnings and information for the
authorized person/user.
Fall arrest systems used with the
anchorage connector must be rigged in
accordance to regulatory requirements.
2.0 Purpose
The Miller swivel anchorage connectors ar designed to function as an interface between the
anchorage and a fall protection, work positioning, rope access, or rescue system for the purpose
of coupling the system to the anchorage. References to "anchorage connector' in this manual
include and apply to the swivel anchorage connectors, used with either 5,000 lb. or 10,000 lb
anchorage connectors.
3.0 Warnings and Limitations
Compliant fall protection and emergency rescue systems help prevent serious injury during fall
arrest. Users and purchasers of this equipment must read and understand the User Instructions
provided for correct use and care of this product. All users of this equipment must understand
the instructions, operation, limitations and consequences of improper use of this equipment and
be properly trained prior to use per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.66 and 1926.503 or applicable local
standards. Misuse or failure to follow warnings and instructions may result in serious
personal injury or death.
1. The user shall be equipped with a means of limiting the maximum dynamic forces exerted
on the user during the arrest of a fall to a maximum of 1800 lbf/8kN.
2. Use of this product must be approved by an Engineer or other qualied person to be
compatible with any and all structural & operational characteristics of the selected installation
location and system to be connected to this anchorage connector.
3. The anchorage connector must be inspected prior to each use for wear, damage, and other
deterioration. If defective components are found the anchorage connector must be immediately
removed from service in accordance with the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.66 and
1926.502.
4. The anchorage connector should be positioned in such a way that minimizes the potential
for falls and the potential fall distance during use. The complete fall protection system must be
planned (including all components, calculating fall clearance, and swing fall) before using.
5. The anchorage connector is designed for single user, with a capacity up to 310 lbs (140
kg) including clothing, tools, etc.
6. The anchorage connector is designed to be used in temperatures ranging from -40ºF to
+130ºF (-40°C to +54°C.

User Instructions - English
7. This anchorage connector should not be used as part of a horizontal lifeline system that has
not been designed and or approved to be used with 5,000-lbf anchorage connectors.
Always work directly under the anchor point to avoid a swing-fall injury.
Ensure that the anchorage connector is at a height that will not allow a lower level to be
struck should a fall occur. When selecting an anchorage point, always remember that
shock absorbers will elongate when subjected to fall arrest forces. Refer to the labels and
instructions provided with the connecting device to obtain the maximum elongation distance.
Anchorage requirements based on ANSI are as follows:
• For fall arrest systems, anchorages must withstand a static load of 5,000 lbs. (22.2kN) for
non-certied anchorages or two times the maximum arresting force for certied anchorages.
• For positioning systems, anchorages must withstand a static load of 3,000 lbs. (13.3kN) for
non-certied anchorages or two times the foreseeable force for certied anchorages.
• For travel restraint, anchorages must withstand a static load of 1,000 lbs. (4.5kN) for noncertied anchorages or two times the foreseeable force for certied anchorages.
• For rescue systems, anchorages must withstand a static load of 3,000 lbs. (13.3kN) for noncertied anchorages or ve-times the applied load for certied anchorages.
• When more than one personal fall arrest system is attached to an anchorage, the above
anchorage strengths must be multiplied by the number of personal fall arrest systems attached
to the anchorage.
3.1 Compatibility Limitations
COMPATIBILITY LIMITATIONS
All anchorage connectors must only be coupled to compatible connectors. OSHA 29 CFR
1926.502 prohibits snaphooks from being engaged to certain objects unless two requirements
are met: it must be a locking type snaphook, and it must be “designed for” making such a
connection. “Designed for” means that the manufacturer of the snaphook specically designed
the snaphook to be used to connect to the equipment listed. The following connections must be
avoided, because they can result in rollout* when a nonlocking snaphook is used:
• Direct connection of a snaphook to horizontal lifeline.
• Two (or more) snaphooks connected to one D-ring.
• Two snaphooks connected to each other.
• A snaphook connected back on its integral lanyard.
• A snaphook connected to a webbing loop or webbing lanyard.
• Improper dimensions of the D-ring, rebar, or other connection point in relation to
the snaphook dimensions that would allow the snaphook keeper to be depressed by
a turning motion of the snaphook.
*Rollout: A process by which a snaphook or carabiner unintentionally disengages from
another connector or object to which it is coupled. (ANSI Z359.1-2007)
The anchorage connector must be compatible with the snap hook or carabiner of the
connecting device and must not be capable of causing a load to be applied to the gate/
keeper.
