    Recommended operation method Loading System MkII Recommended operating method Single Unit usage For loading or unloading a flatbed with a length of up to 8 m, which will fit into the loading zone as described in Figure 35, a Single Unit is required. The Single Unit consists of one Loading System MkII Base with one SkyReach Anchor, one 6,2 m Falcon Fall Arrest Block, one full body harness and one Top Column 4.7 (complete kit Art.
  • Page 41: Double Unit Usage

    Loading System MkII Recommended operation method Once an operative is wearing the correct harness he can then attach the 0.3 m extender to the harness by looping it through itself, and then attach the other end of the extender to the Retractable Fall Arrest Block, using the karabiner fixing.
  • Page 42 Recommended operation method Loading System MkII Any operative unloading a flatbed trailer should be wearing: • appropriate footwear, • reflective vest and helmet with chin strap, • full body harness, • harness extender 0.3 m for dorsal anchorage. Once an operative is wearing the correct harness he can then attach the 0.3 m extender to the harness by looping it through itself, and then attach the other end of the extender to the Retractable Fall Arrest Block, using the karabiner fixing.
