These instructions must be provided to the user of this equipment. The user must read and understand the
manufacturer's instructions for each component or part of the complete system. Manufacturer's instructions must be
followed for proper use, care, and maintenance of this product. These instructions must be retained and be kept

A Fall Protection Plan must be on file and available for review by all users. It is the responsibility of the user and the
purchaser of this equipment to assure that users of this equipment are properly trained in its use, maintenance, and
storage. Training must be repeated at regular intervals. Training must not subject the trainee to fall hazards.
