How to use seat belts correctly

Carpenters, external scaffolders, window operators, bricklayers, plasterers, structural column operators, basket operators, garbage cleaners at the bottom of climbing frames, and operators at the top of roof and equipment floor belong to high-altitude operations, which are in danger of falling from high altitude. Safety belt is a protective appliance used to prevent falling casualties of high-altitude workers. It is composed of belts, ropes and metal accessories. When working at heights (above 2m), in addition to the protection of the working surface, the operators must wear safety belts. Because the higher the falling height, the greater the impact force. Therefore, the safety belt must have enough strength to withstand the impact of human body falling, and the rope length cannot be too long. So how to use the seat belt correctly?

When working on high cliffs and steep slopes without protective facilities, safety belts must be fastened. The safety belt should be hung high and used low. Pay attention to prevent swinging and collision. If the safety belt is hung low and used high, once it falls, it will increase the impact force and bring danger. The length of safety rope shall be limited to 1.5 ~ 2.0m, and buffer shall be added when using more than 3m long rope. It is not allowed to tie the rope or hang the hook directly on the safety rope. It should be hung on the connecting ring. Various parts on the safety belt shall not be removed arbitrarily, and sampling inspection shall be conducted once after using for more than 2 years. The hanging safety belt shall be subject to impact test and free fall test with the weight of 100kg. If it is not damaged, this batch of safety belts can continue to be used. Frequently used ropes shall be subject to appearance inspection frequently. If any abnormality is found, they shall be scrapped in advance. The newly used safety belt must have the product inspection certificate, and it is not allowed to use without the certificate.
