IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON LEADING EDGE APPLICATIONS

D-ring extenders are designed to facilitate connecting to the dorsal D-ring of a full-body harness (FBH). When used in conjunction with an FBH, the D-ring extender may be used as part of a Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS).
While working at height exposes users to inherent hazards, the use of any D-ring extender in a leading-edge environment exposes users to specific risks associated with extended free-fall, increased fall-forces, and potential contact with sharp or abrasive edges. It should be understood that connecting directly to the dorsal D-ring mitigates the aforementioned specific risks.

As previously discussed, this product should only be used with-in an approved PFAS and in accordance with the user instruction manual.
It is ultimately the duty of the Competent Person to weigh the associated risks of using a D-ring Extender against the benefit of the convenient attachment point it offers. The risk associated with any part of the energy absorbing element making contact with a sharp edge during a fall event exists with or without the presence of a D-ring Extender.
