Product Information
Full details
The 3M Protecta Work Positioning Trigger Lanyard is designed for professional industrial workers who require a reliable way to maintain stability while working at height. By providing a secure, adjustable connection to fixed structures or ladders, this lanyard allows users to work with both hands free, significantly increasing productivity and safety on the job. While it is an essential tool for positioning, it is important to note that it is not designed for fall arrest and should always be used as part of a complete, compliant fall protection system.

FAQs
Can I use this lanyard for fall arrest?
No, this is a work positioning lanyard only. It must be used in conjunction with a separate, primary fall arrest system.
What is the maximum weight capacity?
The lanyard is designed for standard industrial use; please refer to the product manual included with your unit for specific weight ratings as they relate to CE EN 358.
Does this lanyard stretch under load?
The 10.5 mm kernmantle rope is chosen for its low-stretch characteristics to ensure stability during positioning tasks.
How often should the lanyard be inspected?
A competent person should inspect the equipment before every use, and a formal documented inspection should occur at least every 12 months.
Is the rope field-replaceable?
No, the rope is integrated into the system and is not field-replaceable. If the rope is compromised, the entire unit must be replaced.
Troubleshooting
Trigger mechanism feels sticky or stiff.
Clean the device with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. Ensure the rope is not twisted within the trigger channel.
Difficulty in adjusting the length under load.
Ensure the lanyard is not fully tensioned; release a small amount of tension to allow the trigger cam to move freely along the rope.
Visible wear or fraying on the rope.
Immediately remove the unit from service and tag it for replacement. Do not attempt to repair the rope.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the lanyard, attach the triple action carabiner to your designated anchor structure and connect the snap hook to the work positioning side D-rings on your safety harness. Always ensure that the trigger mechanism is locked correctly before putting your weight on the system.
Compatibility: This lanyard is designed for use with harnesses equipped with side D-rings for work positioning. It is not compatible with standard fall arrest anchor points unless part of an overall fall-restraint setup.
Care Instructions:
- Inspect the rope for fraying, chemical exposure, or cuts before every use.
- Clean the rope using a mild detergent and water, allowing it to air dry away from direct sunlight.
- Keep the trigger mechanism free of debris or grit, as contaminants can impede the smooth operation of the locking cam.
- Store in a cool, dry place inside a protective bag when not in use.
