Swing Falls: Prior to installation or use, make considerations for eliminating or minimizing all swing fall hazards. Swing falls occur when the anchor is not directly above the location where a fall occurs. Always work as close to in line with the anchor point as possible. Swing falls significantly increase the likelihood of serious injury or death in the event of a fall. *Eliminate Swing Fall whenever possible! If Swing Fall exists, always account for additional fall clearance.

www.guardianfall.com phone: (800) 466-6385 fax: (800) 670-7892 If the sternal attachment is used for fall arrest, the competent person evaluating the application should take measures to ensure that a fall can only occur feet first. This may include limiting the allowable free fall distance. It may be possible for a sternal attachment incorporated into an adjustment style chest strap to cause the chest strap to slide up and possibly choke the user during a fall, extraction, suspension, etc.
