This is called a swing-fall hazard.
A swing fall can be as harmful as falling to the ground.

After a fall, immediately remove from service all equipment used to arrest the fall.

You cannot use the equipment again until it has been inspected and approved by on of the following :

  • The manufacturer
  • An approved agent
