PURPOSE
The
A
510000
is an anchorage connector 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. Any references to “anchorage connector” in this
manual include, and apply to, the
A
510000
.
USE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before using a personal fall arrest system, user must be trained in accordance with the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR
1910.66 in the safe use of the system and its components.
2. Use only with ANSI/OSHA compliant personal fall arrest or restraint systems. The anchorage must have the strength capable
of supporting a static load, applied in the directions permitted by the system, of at least 5,000-lbf (22.2 kN) in the absence of
& operational characteristics of the selected installation location and system to be connected to this anchor. Improper use
may result in serious personal injury or death.
4. The anchorage connector must be inspected prior to each use for wear, damage, and other deterioration and defective
components must be immediately removed from service, in accordance with the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR
1910.66 and 1926.502.
5. The complete fall protection system must be planned (including all components, calculating fall clearance, and swing fall)
before using.
6. A rescue plan, and the means at hand to implement it, must be in place that provides the prompt rescue of users in the
event of a fall, or assures that users are able to rescue themselves.
7. After a fall occurs, anchorage connectors must be removed from service and destroyed immediately.
USE LIMITATIONS
1. The
anchorage connector
is designed for single user system, with a capacity up to 310 lb (181 kg) per
user including clothing, tools, etc. can be used with a flexible horizontal lifeline system that requires a 5,000-lbs anchor. See
anchorage requirements in the user instructions for the flexible horizontal lifeline system.
2. The
anchorage connector
may be loaded in any direction
3.
The Anchorage connector
is designed to be used in temperatures ranging from -40ºF to +130ºF (-40°C to +54°C).
4. Do not expose the
anchorage connector
5. Do not alter or modify this product in anyway.
6. Caution must be taken when using any component of a fall protection, work positioning, rope access, or rescue system near
moving machinery, electrical hazards, sharp edges, or abrasive surfaces, as contact may cause equipment failure, personal
injury, or death.
7. Do not use/install equipment without proper training by a “competent person” as defined by OSHA 29 CFR 1926.32(f).
8. Do not remove the labeling from this product.
9. Additional requirements and limitations may apply depending on anchorage type and fastening option utilized for
installation. Refer to the applicable section in this manual for further details. Improper use may result in serious personal
injury or death.
COMPATIBILITY LIMITATIONS
All Reusable Concrete Anchors 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 specifically 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.
*Rollout: A process by which a snaphook or carabiner unintentionally disengages from another connector or object to which it is coupled.

MAINTAINANCE, CLEANING AND STORAGE
Cleaning periodically will prolong the life and proper functioning of the product. The frequency of cleaning should be determined by
solution. Do not use any corrosive chemicals that could damage the product. Wipe all surfaces with a clean dry cloth and hang to dry, or use
compressed air. When not in use, store anchorage connectors in a cool, dry, clean environment, out of direct sunlight and free of corrosive or
other degrading elements.
