Regular and proper inspection of components of Personal Fall Arrest Systems (PFAS) is mandatory. When inspecting a PFAS, consider the following:

• Inspect PFAS before each use for wear, damage, and other deterioration, and remove defective components from service. 
• Look for faulty connectors (D-rings, snap-hooks etc.) 
• Before each use check lanyards, static lines, and body harnesses for tears, cuts, frays, or other damage, that could limit the integrity of the system. 
• Make sure anchorage points are secure. 
• If equipment looks as if it needs repair — or it is time for maintenance — tag it, "Do not use," and remove it from service. 
• Keep fall protection equipment as clean as possible to facilitate inspection of the equipment. 
• Store in a clean, dry place.
