4.4 COMBINED APPLICATION

A person suffering a fall from height is hanging in the fall arrester, a guided type fall arrester
or a connecting element.
First the device is fixed to the anchor point as described before. The rope is lead through the
device in such a manner that the descending rope is running out of the right side opening (view
from the hand wheel side). Attach the person who needs to be rescued to the descending rope.
Depending on the circumstances the person may not be reachable directly due to a fall over a roof
edge or platform, the person is hanging free. In such a case a suitable rope clamp (G) is fixed
to the fall arrest lanyard by being connected to the MILAN
After all connecting elements have been closed securely and checked,
the person suffered from a fall is lifted (Pay attention to edge protec-
tion). The person is lifted until the Fall arrest lanyard (the fall arrest-
er, the guided type fall arrester, etc.) is slack (H). Now you insert the
upstream rope into the rope guide and the fixing clamp of the device (F).

G H
Now the person is disconnected from the fall arrest lanyard and the rope taken out of the fixing
clamp. The descending can begin.
In case the person suffering from a fall is unconscious it is suggested that the assisting person
is descending together with the injured person – this allows avoiding contact with constructions
during the operation.
