SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
• Compatibility of Components: Guardian Fall Protection equipment is designed to be used with Guardian approved
components. Please contact Guardian if you have a question regarding compatibility. Making substitutions without approval
from Guardian Fall Protection may lead to injuries and or death by compromising the safety and reliability of the complete
system. A Qualified person can make a determination on compatibility of equipment from different manufacturers. If in
doubt, please contact Guardian Fall Protection for clarification.
• Compatibility of Connectors: Connectors (D-rings, hooks, carabiners) must be capable of supporting at least 5,000 lbs.
(22kN). Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Non-compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage. Self
locking snap hooks and carabiners are required by ANSI and OSHA. Connectors must be compatible in size, shape, and
strength.
• Making Connections: Only use self-locking snap hooks and carabiners with any Guardian Fall Protection equipment. Do not
use equipment that is not compatible. If you have any questions on compatibility, please call Guardian Fall Protection at
800.466.6385.
• Connecting Hardware: Do not use rigging devices or components in the assembly and use of the system. Only use provided
fasteners. Or specific like-in-kind fasteners which have been approved by Guardian Fall Protection
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS:
The following requirements outline the proper installation procedures to be followed.
Location: Select a location on an appropriate strength anchorage that will provide overall safety and proper loading. The
anchorage must be free of deformities, weather deterioration, or defects that may weaken the structure.
1. Place the SkyMast SkyHook over the ridge of the roof. Make sure to use a SkyMast SkyHook that is properly sized to fit the
pitch of the roof that you are working with, i.e. 4/12, 6/12, 7/12, etc…
The center tab must be positioned over a truss for proper attachment.
