Before each use
Harness
Check the webbing at the attachment points, at the adjustment buckles and at the safety
stitching. Be particularly careful to check for cut or loose threads.
Look for cuts, wear and damage due to use, to heat, to chemicals... Verify that the
DOUBLEBACK, DOUBLEBACK PLUS and FAST buckles function properly.
Check the visual indicator. The indicator shows red if the dorsal attachment point sustains a
shock load greater than 400 daN.
Retire the harness if the visual indicator is visible.
Gated ventral attachment point
Verify the absence of any cracks, deformation, marks, wear, corrosion. Verify that the screws
are present. Make sure the screws are securely tightened (correct installation, lack of play...).
CROLL L
On the product, verify the absence of any cracks, deformation, marks, wear, corrosion...
Check the condition of the frame, the attachment holes, the cam and safety catch, the springs
and the cam axle.
Check the mobility of the cam and the effectiveness of its spring.
Verify that the cam's teeth are not dirty.
During use
Regularly verify that the adjustment buckles are properly tightened. It is important to regularly
monitor the condition of the product and its connections to the other equipment in the system.
Make sure that all items of equipment are correctly positioned with respect to each other.
BEWARE:
- of foreign objects that can impede the operation of the cam,
- of situations where the safety catch can snag and cause the cam to open.
4. Compatibility
Verify that this product is compatible with the other elements of the system in your application
(compatible = good functional interaction).
Equipment used with your harness must meet current standards in your country (e.g. EN 362
connectors).
5. Harness setup
- Be sure to correctly stow the excess webbing (folded flat) in the elastic keepers.
- Beware of foreign objects that could impede the operation of the FAST buckles (e.g. pebbles,
sand, clothing...). Verify that they are correctly fastened (see diagrams).
Gated ventral attachment point
This point allows multiple pieces of equipment to be attached: a PODIUM seat on the pin, a
CROLL L rope clamp on the small D, a descender on the large D.
The two screws must be present.
To ensure proper performance of your device, the screws must be correctly installed and
tightened to the indicated torque. Using a torque wrench is the only way to verify that the
tightening torque is correct.
Carefully follow the instructions for assembly and disassembly: see indicative arrows. It is not
necessary to completely remove the screw to free the pin. If you lose a screw, contact Petzl
after-sales service.
Initial adjustment of the dorsal attachment point
Adjust the position of the dorsal attachment point to suit your body type and size: position it at
the level of the shoulder blades.
Warning: adjustment of the rear leg loop-waistbelt linking straps is important if you use the
dorsal point.
Adjustment and suspension test
Your harness must be adjusted to fit snugly to reduce the risk of injury in the event of a fall.
In a safe environment, you must move around and hang in the harness from each attachment
point, with your equipment, to verify that the harness fits properly, provides adequate comfort
for the intended use and that it is optimally adjusted.
6. EN 361: 2002 fall-arrest harness
Full-body harness for fall protection, component of a fall-arrest system in accordance with the
EN 363 standard (personal fall protection systems).
6A. Sternal attachment point
6B. Dorsal attachment point
Only these points may be used to attach a fall-arrest system, for example a mobile fall
arrester, an energy absorber, or other system described in the EN 363 standard. For ease of
identification, these points are marked with the letter 'A'.
Clearance: amount of free space below the user
The free space below the user must be sufficient to prevent the user from hitting an obstacle in
the event of a fall. Specific details on calculating clearance are found in the Instructions for Use
of the other components (energy absorbers, mobile fall arrester...).
7. EN 358: 2018 belt for work positioning and
restraint
These attachment points must only be used to attach to a restraint or work positioning system.
See the Instructions for Use of the lanyard used, for usage precautions. These attachment
points are not designed for fall-arrest usage. Do not use a work positioning belt if there is a
foreseeable risk of the user becoming suspended or exposed to uncontrolled tension on the
belt. For work positioning, use an anchor point situated at or above waist level. It may be
necessary to supplement work positioning or restraint systems with collective or personal
fall-arrest systems.
The waistbelt is approved for one user, including his/her tools and equipment, for a maximum
total weight of 150 kg.
TECHNICAL NOTICE ASTRO BOD FAST INTER CE
7A. Gated ventral attachment point
7B. Waistbelt side attachment points
Always use the two side attachment points together, by linking them with a positioning lanyard,
in order to be comfortably supported by the waistbelt.
7C. Rear restraint attachment point
This rear waistbelt attachment point is designed only for attachment of a restraint system to
prevent the user from entering an area where a fall is possible.
8. EN 813: 2008 sit harness
Gated ventral attachment point
Designed for progression on rope and work positioning.
Use the ventral point to attach a descender, positioning lanyards or progression lanyards.
This attachment point is not suitable for fall arrest.
9. EN 12841: 2006 CROLL L ventral rope clamp
The CROLL L is a type B rope adjustment device used for upward progression on the work
rope.
The CROLL L must be used with a type A back-up device on the safety rope
(e.g. with an ASAP mobile fall arrester for rope).
- The CROLL L is not suitable for use in a fall-arrest system.
- To meet the requirements of the EN 12841: 2006 type B standard, use 10-13 mm EN 1891
type A low stretch kernmantle ropes. (Note: certification testing was performed using Petzl
CLUB 10 mm and Teufelberger KM3 13 mm ropes.)
- Use a connecting assembly of maximum length 1 meter (lanyard + connectors + devices).
- Do not allow slack in the rope between the rope adjustment device and the anchor, in order
to reduce the risk of a fall.
When your body weight is on the work rope, make sure that the safety rope is not loaded.
A dynamic overload can damage the safety rope.
Function principle and test
This rope clamp is a device for ascending rope. It slides along the rope in one direction and
blocks in the other direction.
The cam's teeth initiate a clamping action that blocks the rope by pinching it between the cam
and the frame. The slot in the cam allows mud to clear.
Installing and removing the rope
Pull the safety catch down and lock it on the frame of the device. The cam is thus held open.
Put the rope in the device. Install in the correct direction ("UP" arrow). Release the safety catch
so that the cam presses against the rope. In this position, the safety catch helps prevent
involuntary opening of the cam.
To remove the rope, slide the device upwards on the rope while operating the safety catch to
disengage the cam.
Rope ascent
Use the CROLL L with another rope clamp (e.g. BASIC) and a foot loop. Always attach yourself
to the second rope clamp with an appropriate lanyard.
Angled traverse situation
Starting on an angled rope: put a leg over the rope to align it with the CROLL L's rope channel.
Short descent
Slide the device slightly up the rope and simultaneously push the cam with your index finger.
Do not manipulate the safety catch because there is a risk of accidentally opening the cam.
Warning: for workers weighing over 100 kg, see the information on Solutions for workers over
100 kg at Petzl.com.
10. Equipment loops
Equipment loops must only be used for equipment.
WARNING - DANGER: never use equipment loops for belaying, rappelling, tying in, or
anchoring a person.
The Velcro keeper may be used to hold your mobile fall arrester's energy absorber in a high
position.
11. Fall-arrest lanyard connector parking
A. To be used only as lanyard connector parking for unused lanyard ends.
B. In the event of a fall, the lanyard connector parking releases the lanyard-end connector, to
avoid impeding deployment of the energy absorber.
WARNING: this is not a fall-arrest attachment point.
12. Accessories
PODIUM seat and shackles for PODIUM seat.
