Q: What do the MAX Force absorber and ADP Grab do?
A: They work together so the absorber limits arrest force during a fall while the ADP Grab travels smoothly and locks on a compatible vertical lifeline.
Q: What rope and orientation should I use?
A: Use a compatible synthetic vertical lifeline (commonly around 5/8 in / 16 mm); install the grab with the UP arrow toward the anchorage and keep slack to a minimum.
Q: Can I tie back or use it for leading-edge work?
A: No—do not tie back to the lanyard/webbing and do not use for leading-edge or sharp-edge exposure; this assembly is intended for vertical lifelines only.
Q: Can it be reused after a fall, and what should I inspect?
A: If a fall is suspected or the tear indicator shows deployment, remove from service and replace. Before each use, inspect webbing, stitching, labels, absorber pack, snaphook auto-lock, and the ADP Grab’s cam/axle for damage or malfunction.
