Jinneng Electric Power will provide you with a detailed guide to wearing five-point safety belts from multiple dimensions, including preparation, wearing steps, adjustment and testing, precautions for use, and maintenance.
1. Inspection and preparation
Before wearing a five-point safety belt, you must first conduct a careful inspection. Make sure that the safety belt is intact and there are no broken, broken or missing parts. Check whether the webbing is entangled, and whether the shoulder straps, chest straps, waist straps and leg straps can hang freely without any obstruction. In addition, make sure that metal parts such as D-rings, buckles and adjustment rings are intact, without cracks or rust.
2. Wearing steps
Put on the harness: Carry the harness behind you, and straighten the harness to ensure that there is no twist or knot.
Fasten the chest strap: Connect the chest straps together through the slip-on buckle, and make sure that the chest strap is 15 cm below the shoulder. Fasten the buckle to ensure that the chest strap fits tightly to the body, but not too tight to affect breathing.
Buckle the belt: The belt should be tied above the maximum hip circumference to ensure good support when impacted. Fasten the belt buckle and check whether it is secure.
Buckle the leg strap: Buckle the leg strap from the back of the legs to the front to ensure that the leg strap fits tightly against the thigh to provide additional support. Adjust the buckles to ensure that they are tight and do not loosen when walking or squatting.
Adjustment and testing: After wearing, make a comprehensive adjustment and test. Make sure that the shoulder, chest, waist and leg straps are adjusted to the appropriate length and are not twisted or knotted. Test the tightness of the safety belt by walking, squatting and other actions to ensure that it can provide good protection during the operation.
3. Precautions for use
Hang high and use low: The safety belt should be hung high and used low to avoid swinging, collision and contact with sharp objects. When hanging, the two hooks must be hung on two different hanging points to ensure that one hook is always hung on the hanging point when moving.
Avoid knotting: The safety belt cannot be knotted to avoid the safety rope being disconnected from the knot during impact. The safety hook should be hung on the connecting ring, not directly on the safety rope.
Regular inspection: Frequently used safety belts should be frequently inspected for appearance, and new ropes should be replaced in time if abnormalities are found. After two years of use, the safety belts should be inspected and static load tested to ensure good performance.
Correct storage: Safety belts should be stored in a dry and ventilated warehouse to avoid contact with corrosive substances such as high temperature, open flames, strong acids and strong alkalis.
Correctly wearing safety belts is an important part of ensuring safety. Jinneng Electric Power reminds everyone: Only by mastering the correct wearing method and strictly observing the precautions during use can the protective role of safety belts be fully utilized and a solid line of defense be built for our life safety. Let us always keep safety first in mind, use safety belts correctly, and be responsible for the safety of ourselves and others.
