Capacity and use of the Lad-Saf head for fixed ladder

This head accommodates up to 4 users, each with a maximum weight of 310 lb (140 kg) including equipment. It does not form a fall arrest system on its own: the complete vertical system comprises this head, a crimped cable, cable guides and a removable Lad-Saf X2 or X3 sleeve. The system is only compliant with ANSI Z359.16 when used with this sleeve. Always have the design and verification of the system carried out by a competent person or engineer, per the applicable provincial regulation.

Inspection of the Lad-Saf head before each use

Before each use, visually inspect the brackets, the integrated anchor point, the mounting hardware and the whole head for any sign of corrosion, deformation, cracking or wear. Remove any damaged component from service. A formal inspection by a competent person must be performed at the frequency required by regulations and the manufacturer.

Maintenance and corrosion protection of the Lad-Saf head

Keep the system head clean and dry. Clean it with water and mild soap, then air dry away from direct heat. Store it in a clean, dry place, away from corrosive fumes. Galvanized steel resists corrosion well in normal outdoor use.

Complementary fall protection equipment suggestions for Lad-Saf system

The climber who installs and uses a Lad-Saf vertical safety system on a fixed ladder works at height, exposed to the void throughout the climb. He wears his full personal protective equipment: a class L harness with a sternal D-ring (FPH140200XCAL), cut-resistant gloves (GS13KFNT), safety glasses (YA3301), a protective helmet (TA14LR) held by its chin strap (TA14CS), a high-visibility garment (V6671) and corded earplugs (OA111).

This system head is the mounting bracketry for the ladder: to build the complete vertical system, pair it with the Lad-Saf crimped cable (FPLS61040XX) and a removable Lad-Saf X3 sleeve (FPACC6160054) or X2 (FPACC6160030), selected to match the cable diameter. Also plan a RollGliss R550 rescue device (FPLR5503325) to evacuate a climber in difficulty and mark off the ground area with DANGER tape (ECT3RE9).
