CAPACITY: The Skyhook Swivel Top is designed for use by persons with a combined weight (clothing,
tools, etc.) or no more than 310 lbs. but up to 400 lbs. using an approved connecting system. No more
than one personal protective system may be connected at one time.

FREE FALL: Personal Fall Arrest Systems (PFAS) used with this equipment must be rigged to limit the
freefall to six (6) feet as called out in ANSI Z359.1. Only qualified and personnel trained on the proper use
of fall protection such as this anchor are allowed to use this product. Restraint systems must be rigged so
that no vertical free fall is possible.

FALL CLEARANCE: There must be sufficient clearance below the use to arrest a fall before the user strikes
the ground or any other obstruction. At least 20’ of clearance is needed for fall arrest systems. A hazard
assessment by a trained and Competent Person is recommended before any work is started that would
include the use of fall protection.

SWING FALLS: 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 the risk
of 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 system is used. The free fall from a swing fall must not be more
than six feet.

POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS: Use of fall protection 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 chemicals, corrosive environments, high voltage power lines,
gases, moving machinery and sharp edges.
