Use with the type HWB 1.8 DW / HWB 2 DW double suspension
When using the IKAR double suspension, 2 IKAR type HWB 1.8 / HWB 2 fall arresters can be used for reciprocal
fastening at suitable anchor points for vertical and horizontal movements. (e.g. when working in high-bay
warehouses, steel structure assemblies, industrial scaffolding or vertically climbing double-rail ladders/manhole
steps) The combination consisting of the double suspension and fall arresters (HWB 1.8 DW / HWB 2 DW) may
only be used together with full body harnesses according to EN 361:2002 which are equipped with a back plate for
the fixation of the back webbings and a D-ring on the back (
The instruction manual for the full body harness should also be followed. If in doubt about the suitability of the full
body harness, consult the corresponding manufacturer. The IKAR fall arresting device type HWB 1.8 DW / HWB 2
DW has been successfully tested and approved in conjunction with the IKAR special swivel type DW corresponding
to EN 360:2002 and CNB 11.060:2008 (horizontal use with a fall impact over edges r=0.5 mm) (see instruction
manual and safety information).
1. Only the IKAR type DW double suspension with the IKAR type HWB 1.8 DW / HWB 2 DW fall arresters may be
used. No other combinations are admissible. Adapters of other manufacturers or other fall arresters should not
be used.
2. The IKAR fall arresters are connected by an instructed person at the swivel by means of the provided M8
quality 8.8 special screws to the double suspension (
The tightening torque of the screws is 18 Nm. In addition to this, the screws should be secured with a medium
screw lock.
3. Using the locking pin, the adapter between the back plate and the webbings of the full body harness can be
connected ( ).

4. The ideal anchor points for the snap hooks of the retractable lanyard should be either above or behind the
person using the device and should not be lower than waist level (
Exception: When performing work on the surface the person using the device is standing on (
E.g. in the case of container assemblies, flat roof fall protection and steel structure assemblies with design-
related, larger distances. But not when working below the surface the person using the device is standing on.
With the connectors of the retractable lanyard, both fall arresters should be connected to the anchor points.
5. Possible injuries of the person using the device caused in the event of a fall by hitting parts of the structure or
by the retractable lanyard (e.g. skin abrasions under the person's arms) or by the uncontrolled swirling around
of a fall arrester that is not connected to the anchor point cannot be excluded (
6. If the fall arresters for fall protection are no longer required by the person using the device, the snap hooks of
the retractable lanyard should be connected with a suitable point of the full body harness (e.g. holding D-ring).
7. Prior to any use, the person using the device should be instructed by means of practical exercises with the
particularities of the required motion sequences and anchoring technique. In particular, the retractable lanyard
should be prevented from twisting/crossing so that the retraction of the lanyard is not impaired.
8. The clearance below the feet of the person using the device should be observed at all times
