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 fall protection equipment read and understand these instructions. In addi­tion, it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that all users are trained in the proper 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 minors must not use this product.

1.0 Pur pose
For use along crane rail runways, loading bays/docks, machinery maintenance conveyors, rooftops, pipe racks, bridges, inside sports arenas, and many industrial applications, the Xenon Permanent Horizontal Lifeline Kit provides fall protection that ulti­mately increases worker mobility, safety and productivity. The uniquely-designed Xenon Shuttle self-aligns to smoothly pass through intermediate brackets for 100% connection to the system.
2.0 General Requirements, Warnings and Limitations
2.1 General Fall Protection Requirements
All warnings and instructions shall be provided to authorized persons/users. Warnings and instructions must be read and understood prior to using this equipment.
All authorized persons/users must reference the regulations governing occupational safety, as well as applicable standards. Xenon Kits meet OSHA and ANSI A10.32-2004.
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 equipment 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 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.
Never remove product labels, which include important warnings and information for the authorized person/user.

2.2 System Warnings and Limitations
System Compatibility
Xenon Kits are designed for use with Miller approved com­ponents. Substitution or replacement with non-approved component combinations, sub-systems, or both, may affect or interfere with the safe function of each other and endan­ger the compatibility within the system. This incompatibility may affect the reliability and safety of the total system.
Miller Fall Protection requires the use of a Miller full-body harness and shock-absorbing lanyard or self-retracting life­line/fall limiter with this system. All instructions and warnings provided with the body wear and connecting device must be read and understood before using the equipment.
Maximum Lifeline Span
The maximum lifeline span (from anchor to anchor, from anchor to intermediate bracket, or from intermediate bracket to intermediate bracket) is 30 ft. (9.1m). System kits are available in lengths from 30 ft. (9.1m) to 510 ft. (155.5m). Any lifeline system extending beyond 30ft. (9.1m), known as a multiple-span system, requires intermediate brackets at a maximum of 30 ft. (9.1m) intervals.
Capacity
Maximum capacity is two (2) workers [310lbs (140.6kg) each] for a single shock absorber system and four (4) workers [310lbs (140.6kg) each] for a double shock absorber system. Capacity ratings assume the anchorage or structure to which the horizontal lifeline kit is installed meets the load requirements.
System Forces
The Xenon Kit is equipped with an inline shock absorber. In the event of a fall, the shock absorber limits system forces.
Fall Arrest Forces
In conjunction with the Xenon Horizontal Lifeline System, workers must use a Miller self-retracting lifeline/fall limiter or a shock-absorbing lanyard, which limits maximum fall arrest force imposed by the worker to 900lbf (4kN).
Free Fall
Personal fall arrest systems must be rigged to limit a free fall to the shortest possible distance [6ft (1.8m) maximum].
Fall Clearance
Ensure that adequate clearance exists in your fall path to avoid striking a lower level or other object (see 6.0 Fall Clearance).
Environmental Hazards
Use of this equipment in areas where environmental hazards exist may require additional precautions to limit the possibility of injury to the user or damage to the equipment. Hazards may include, but are not limited to, extreme temperatures, caustic chemicals, corrosive environments, high voltage power lines, explosive or toxic gases, moving machinery, and sharp edges. Do not expose the equipment to any hazard which it is not designed to withstand. Consult the manufacturer in cases of doubt.
System Requirements
The Horizontal Lifeline System shall be designed, installed
and used, under the supervision of a qualied person,
as part of a complete personal fall arrest system, which maintains a safety factor of at least two.
Ensure that there is adequate end and intermediate anchorage strength for the Xenon HLL System per the chart below. *Load
requirements reect a 2:1 safety factor.
