This guide must be translated by the dealer into the language of the country of use, except if the translation is provided by the manufacturer. For your
own safety, you must strictly follow the usage, inspection, maintenance and storage instructions.
KRATOS SAFETY may not be held liable for any accident, whether direct or indirect, resulting from usage other than that provided for in this guide.
Do not exceed the limits of this equipment!
USE AND PRECAUTIONS: EASYSAFEWAY 1 is a temporary and transportable H-base anchorage device designed to be used for access, suspension
work, fall arrest and rescue/evacuation operations in confined spaces: tanks, silos, sewers, wells, or when working on a façade.
It complies with European Regulation 2016/425 on PPE and in particular with standard EN 795:2012 Type A and B, as well as Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC (formerly 98/37 EC) for lifting loads.
It can also be used with brackets (FA 60 022 01/11/13 on the floor or FA 60 022 02/12 on the wall), permanently fastened in/on a structure, while the arm
and davit arm body can be moved from bracket to bracket, or used with the H-base.
Use as anchorage point for 'lifting' persons: use by one person at a time.
EASYSAFEWAY 1 can then be used in combination with retractable fall arresters (EN 360), rescue devices (EN 1496 class A or B) and/or suspension
work devices.
EASYSAFEWAY 1 complies with the requirements of standard EN1808-§ 9.3 allowing the use of it as a suspension structure for people, as well as
standard EN795:2012 Type A and B allowing the use of it as a fall arrest anchorage point.
Use as anchorage point for lifting loads:
EASYSAFEWAY 1 can be used in combination with suitable lifting equipment (such as winch, hoist, etc.).
Max load on mast: 250 kg
Max load under arm: 500 kg
The maximum loads indicated must be applied individually; it is not possible to accumulate several loads at the same time on the various anchorage
points of the same EASYSAFEWAY 1.
WARNING, whatever the use of EASYSAFEWAY 1, it is ESSENTIAL that the accessories (such as the mounting brackets) and/or lifting devices
installed on it are original or certified by KRATOS SAFETY (see paragraph on Compatible accessories).
All the elements (pulleys, safety pins, etc.) cannot be lost.
THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF EASYSAFEWAY 1 ANCHORAGE:
EASYSAFEWAY 1 is equipped with 2 such anchorages of this type on the mast and 1 anchorage of this type on the arm, R>12kN. They can be used
for both PPE and load lifting equipment.
EASYSAFEWAY 1 is equipped with an anchorage point of this type the two mast flanges, R>12 kN. It can be used for both PPE and load lifting
equipment.
EASYSAFEWAY 1, in combination with the FA 60 105 01 bracket, creates an anchorage for the installation of a retractable fall arrester (EN 360)
with or without a recovery system (EN 1496).
EASYSAFEWAY 1, in combination with the FA 60 105 02 bracket, creates an anchorage for the installation of a Winch (EN 1496).
Whichever anchorage is used, ensure that the dynamic force exerted on it is limited to a maximum of 6 kN. If this value is not observed, EASYSAFEWAY
1 must not be used again.
N.B. the PPE anchorage point(s) must be identified and different from the load lifting anchorage point(s); these two types of anchorage should
never be used at the same time.
INSTALLATION ON AN H BASE: (See pictures 1 to 12, p. 6-7)
During all the operations described above, carry out a visual and possibly functional check of the components, and only install components in perfect
condition.
EASYSAFEWAY 1 is delivered with 4 locking castors on an H-base; these allow it to be moved easily during use. However, under load (with a person
or when handling loads), the adjustable feet should take over from the castors. Always check before use that the H-base is perfectly horizontal using the
built-in spirit levels on the H-base. The H-base should always be installed on a hard surface; avoid soft ground such as sand, grass, gravel, etc.
The work area and the user must always be directly below the deflection pulley (or, if used, directly below the anchorage
point under the arm) of the EASYSAFEWAY 1.
In addition, the plumb line of the deflection pulley (or, if used, the plumb line of the anchorage point under the arm) must
be within the wheelbase of the H-base (hatched area in the photo opposite).
If the site configuration leads to use outside the wheelbase, EASYSAFEWAY 1 may become unstable and must be securely
braced to withstand the loads in use. This type of installation must be validated by a person qualified to carry out this type
of inspection. In any case, it is not allowed to work outside the area between the two feet of the H-base.
Before first use, we recommend that the installation be visually inspected by a suitable person who can carry out
the "acceptance" of this installation. This person must check, among other things: the installation plan relative to
the job to be performed; cross-compatibility between the products (mounting bracket, adaptation plate and fall
arrest system installed on this anchorage).
INSTALLATION ON FLOOR/WALL BRACKETS: (See pictures p. 9-10)
During all the operations described above, carry out a visual and possibly functional check of the components and only
install components in perfect condition.
Floor and wall brackets (FA 60 022 01/11 & FA 60 022 02/12): The receiving structure must be able to withstand stresses equivalent to 22.1 MPa or N/
mm2, minimum thickness: 229 mm. The fasteners/structural anchors must be strong enough to handle this strain. They must be stainless steel, size M16
and class A470 (minimum). Using the nature of the receiving structure and the site's configuration, a qualified structural engineer must run calculations
to determine that the sizing of the structural anchors (length), the type of fixture (chemical or mechanical fasteners, etc.), the position of the structural
anchors, and thus of the mounting bracket, are all correct. We recommend that the mounting bracket be set 280 mm away from all edges.
Mounting bracket in concrete (FA 60 022 13): This can be installed when the concrete is poured/during construction, provided that the concrete does
not penetrate the sleeve. Installation must be perpendicular. If it is installed afterwards (preformed concrete), chisel the concrete perpendicularly to min
diam. 108 mm - max. diam. 112 mm to a depth of 274 mm. Also make sure to remove all debris from the hole and clean it properly (blowing). Use a
ready-to-use two-part EPOXY resin/adhesive for technical seals and anchorages for reinforced concrete. Apply this resin/adhesive completely around
and underneath the sleeve. Please refer to and comply with the resin's drying time instructions.
The thickness of the concrete and the distance between the sleeve and the edge must be duly checked and approved by a qualified structural engineer.
This sleeve is fitted with a plug to prevent it from filling up with water, debris, etc. It should be fitted on the sleeve as much as possible. To open/close,
use a 6 mm Allen key.
Before first use with floor/wall brackets, we recommend that the installation be visually inspected by a suitable person who can carry out the
