! WARNING
Use of equipment in unintended applications may result in serious
injury or death. Maximum 1 attachment per connection point.
The Guardian Fall Protection First-Man-Up System IS NOT a complete PFAS. It is used ONLY to
assist in the connection of the Aluminum Hook anchorage connector component (that must be
attached to an independent PFAS) to an approved anchor point not otherwise reachable by the
worker. Its purpose is to help facilitate the protection of the first worker up during their ascent.
After it is attached to the anchor, the Aluminum Hook anchorage connector component of the
First-Man-Up System may be used as component of a complete and compatible PFAS. The
remaining PFAS components include some or all of the following: a compatible vertical lifeline
(VLL) or self-retracting lifeline (SRL), fall arrester, extension lanyard, and full-body safety harness
with dorsal D-ring. All PFAS equipment must be selected and deemed compatible with the
First-Man-Up anchorage connector by a Competent Person.
Personal Fall Arrest: The Aluminum Hook component of the First-Man-Up System may
be used in Personal Fall Arrest applications to support a MAXIMUM 1 Personal Fall
Arrest System (PFAS). Structure must withstand loads applied in the directions
permitted by the system of at least 5,000 lbs. Maximum free fall is 6‘. MAXIMUM
combined length of fall arrester, lanyard extension, and D-ring is 36”. Applicable D-ring:
Dorsal.
For all applications: worker weight capacity range
(including all clothing, tools, and equipment) is 130-310 lbs.
