A three way retrieval block with the expected fall arrest capabilities, but with the added extra of an up/down winch mechanism and steadying handle. The recovery feature means operatives who have experienced a fall can be winched up or down to safety. The man-riding winch function must only be used for retrieval, NOT for access/egress.
With the addition of the shock pack, the product has been designed for horizontal, overhead, and leading-edge applications, reducing the risk and uncertainty in equipment selection.
However horizontal use or foot level attachment should still be discouraged as there is a risk of serious injury from striking objects.
This unit can be used as a standard fall arrest block, but in the event of a fall the operative can be winched up or down to safety almost immediately.
This item must be used with a safety harness.
