M.2.2 In many cases, the greatest danger is of dropping the tools on to people below. Therefore, to guard against this, small tools such as hammers, trowels and drills should be securely attached to the rope access technician’s harness, e.g. by appropriate cords or lanyards, or to an independently suspended line. Alternatively, small items could be carried in a suitable container, e.g. a bucket or bag, securely attached to the rope access technician’s harness. Where tools are carried like this, it is assumed that they will not be of such a weight that they might cause a significant reduction in the factor of safety of the suspension system, either as a whole or any part of it.© IRATA InternationalAnnex M: page 1 of 32013-Sep-01IRATA International code of practice for industrial rope access Part 3 of 5: Informative annexes: Annex M
