Q Question: What is this lanyard designed for—fall restraint or fall arrest?
A: It’s a non–energy-absorbing web lanyard intended for restraint/positioning. For fall arrest, use it only as part of a system that includes an approved energy absorber, and follow all label/manual limits.
Q Question: How do I connect the 5005-Z snaphook and the sewn loop?
A: Clip the double-locking snaphook to a compatible, rated D-ring or anchorage connector. Use the sewn loop to girth-hitch a rated anchor strap or connect via a rated carabiner, keeping proper orientation and avoiding side loading.
Q Question: Can I tie back to the lanyard or use it for leading-edge work?
A: No. Do not tie back to itself unless the product is specifically rated for tie-back (this model is not). It’s not for leading-edge applications; protect the webbing from sharp edges and use only smooth, compatible anchors.
Q Question: What inspections and care are required?
A: Before each use, check webbing, stitching, labels, and the snaphook’s auto-lock/snap-back. Remove from service if you find defects or after any significant impact/drop. Clean with mild soap and water, air-dry, and store dry away from UV and chemicals.
