For single-person use only. COEUR bolt hanger Type A anchor device (EN 795: 2012 type A) for protection against falls from height. For single-person use only. Anchor device for rock (EN 959: 2018) for protection against falls from height when it is used with a BOLT bolt. BOLT bolt Expansion bolt. This product must not be pushed beyond its limits, nor be used for any purpose other than that for which it is designed. Do not use this equipment as a means of hoisting. Responsibility WARNING Activities involving the use of this equipment are inherently dangerous. You are responsible for your own actions, decisions and safety. Before using this equipment, you must: - Read and understand all Instructions for Use. - Get specific training in its proper use. - Become acquainted with its capabilities and limitations. - Understand and accept the risks involved. Failure to heed any of these warnings may result in severe injury or death. This product must only be used by competent and responsible persons, or those placed under the direct and visual control of a competent and responsible person. You are responsible for your actions, your decisions and your safety and you assume the consequences of same. If you are not able, or not in a position to assume this responsibility, or if you do not fully understand the Instructions for Use, do not use this equipment. 2. Principal materials COEUR STEEL: steel (S600MC). COEUR STAINLESS: stainless steel (316L). COEUR HCR: high corrosion resistant steel (904L). 3. Inspection, points to verify Your safety depends upon the integrity of your equipment. Petzl recommends a detailed inspection by a competent person at least once every 12 months (depending on current regulations in your country, and your conditions of usage). WARNING: your intensity of use may cause you to inspect your equipment more frequently. Follow the procedures described at Petzl.com. Record the results on your equipment inspection form: type, model, manufacturer contact info, serial number or individual number, dates: manufacture, purchase, first use, next periodic inspection; problems, comments, inspector’s name and signature. It is recommended to write the next inspection date on the product. Before each use Check the condition of the anchor: surface degradation, wear, corrosion, deformation, cracks. During use 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. Regular inspection of the installation is recommended, in order to detect any corrosion. Near the sea or in a corrosive environment, inspect more frequently. 4. Compatibility Verify that this product is compatible with the other elements of the system in your application (compatible = good functional interaction). The carabiner used with the hanger must meet current standards in your country (e.g. EN 362 or EN 12275 connector depending on the type of application). Use a bolt diameter that is appropriate for the hanger (e.g. 10 mm diameter bolt for 10 mm diameter hanger). WARNING: do not combine bolts, nuts, washers or hangers of dissimilar metals. To use a COEUR hanger with any device other than the BOLT bolt, be sure that the anchor system is strong enough, and compatible with the chosen hanger. Suitable environment: COEUR STEEL: indoors, climbing gyms. Class 3 anchor. COEUR STAINLESS: outdoors, environments that do not cause stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Class 2 anchor. COEUR HCR: harsh environments that cause stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Class 1 anchor. For anchor installations on a sea cliff, or in any other highly corrosive environment, the lifetime of the anchor is significantly reduced. It is preferable to use a material with a corrosion resistance suitable for harsh environments that cause stress corrosion cracking, so that the lifetime of the installation is satisfactory. 5. Installing the anchor Before installation, verify that the hanger and its means of attachment to the supporting medium (e.g. the bolt) are made of the same material. Example of installation with an expansion bolt: Check the quality of the supporting medium around the anchor. Make sure the rock is solid and uniform. a. After cleaning the drilling area of any friable rock, drill a hole of the appropriate diameter and depth. b. Clean the hole with a brush, then with a blower. c. Push the bolt with the hanger into the hole and tighten the nut to the recommended torque. d. After each installation, verify that the quickdraw moves freely in the hanger. WARNING: if the bolt protrudes too much, it can hinder free movement of the quickdraw in the bolt hanger. Hanger removal: Unscrew the nut and remove the hanger. Before reusing the hanger, carry out a detailed inspection of it. Strength Test results obtained in 50 MPa concrete (high quality concrete, or rock). Common concrete has a weaker compressive strength, about 25 MPa. The anchor breaking strength values depend on the quality of the supporting medium and on the quality of the placement. WARNING: in soft rock, the anchor strength may be reduced. It might be necessary to use a longer or different type of anchor, and to conduct strength tests in the field. WARNING: anchor strength can be near zero if poorly installed. 6. Additional Information - When the anchor device is used as part of a fall-arrest system, the user must be equipped with a means of limiting the impact force, exerted on the user when the fall is arrested, to a maximum value of 6 kN. - The maximum load that can be transmitted to the structure by the anchor is approximately 12 kN. - You must have a rescue plan and the means to rapidly implement it in case of difficulties encountered while using this equipment. - The anchor point for the system should preferably be located above the user’s position and should meet the requirements of the EN 795 standard (12 kN minimum strength). - In a fall-arrest system, it is essential to check the required clearance below the user before each use, in order to avoid hitting the ground or an obstacle in case of a fall. - Make sure that the anchor point is correctly positioned, in order to limit the risk and the length of a fall. - A fall-arrest harness is the only device allowable for supporting the body in a fall-arrest system. - When using multiple items of equipment, a dangerous situation can arise in which the safety function of an item of equipment can be affected by the safety function of another item of equipment. - WARNING - DANGER: ensure that your products do not rub against abrasive or sharp surfaces. - Users must be medically fit for activities at height. WARNING: inert suspension in a harness can result in serious injury or death. - The Instructions for Use for each item of equipment used in conjunction with this product must be followed. - The Instructions for Use must be provided to the user of this equipment, in the language of the country where the equipment is used. - Make sure the markings on the product are legible. When to retire your equipment: WARNING: an exceptional event can lead you to retire a product after only one use, depending on the type and intensity of usage and the environment of usage (harsh environments, marine environments, sharp edges, extreme temperatures, chemicals...). A product must be removed and retired when: - It has been subjected to a major fall or load. - It fails to pass inspection. You have any doubt as to its reliability. - You do not know its full usage history. - When it becomes obsolete due to changes in legislation, standards, technique or incompatibility with other equipment... Destroy these products to prevent further use. Icons: A. Unlimited lifetime - B. Acceptable temperatures - C. Usage precautions - D. Cleaning - E. Drying - F. Storage/transport - G. Maintenance - H.
