Release and rescue of a victim on a fall arrest system, by two co-workers

• Victim suspended on a static support.

  (e.g. energy-absorbing lanyard torn in a fall).

• Victim who is unconscious or needs to be accompanied during the descent.

Follow the recommendations in the chapter Lowering 150 kg – 250 kg with the I’D S on the anchor.

Note:

If possible, select an anchor close to the victim, to avoid elongation problems with the rope supporting the rescuer when the victim’s weight comes onto the rope.
