3.1.6 Clear Space in Fall Path
Make certain that enough clearance is available in all potential fall paths to prevent striking an object.

tion of the anchorage or anchorage connector. Consult the manufacturer’s instructions for the partic-
ular connecting subsystem or component for clearance needed.

the Workman Tripod if inspection reveals an unsafe condition.
