2 - Description and Purpose
WARNING!
The Lewmar Overside Work Rail System is a personal suspension system for the liing, lowering and traversing
of persons performing maintenance operations. It enables safe access whilst working at height. It is not to be
used for liing equipment or any other purpose.
This system is CE-certified and has been successfully tested against the requirements in European standard EN
795 Class D editions 1996 and 2012. It has also been successfully tested against the requirements in Lewmar
Test specification TS-LEW-15, which was specifically developed for testing personal suspension systems,
including rescue, and specifies requirements well in excess of those found in EN 795.
The system consists of aluminium track sections which are joinable to form a continuous span of rail. This is
fixable to a structure in the horizontal plane, whether that structure is part of a sea vessel, building, steelwork,
air or land vehicle or the like and the course of the rail follows the contour of the structure to which it is fixed.
Cars can be engaged on and can slide along the rail. End-stops are fixed to the ends of the rail span to prevent
inadvertent disengagement of the cars.
A person may li or lower themselves in the vertical plane by attaching a liing-lowering device and rope to the
shackle of a car, together with a seat or support harness. Also, they may traverse horizontally from one position
to another along the span of the rail by virtue of the car’s sliding capability.
Consequently, suspended access can be gained to any point below the rail span. This can be extremely useful in
situations where conventional access methods such as ladders and platforms cannot be utilised.
Lewmar tracks and car are not compatible with those of any other manufacture.
Only use CE Certified Lewmar products (Page 6) for overside working.

A device permits the locking of the car to any of the locking holes along the rail, so that when lowering or liing
in the vertical plane, the car does not inadvertently slide along the rail in response to lowering or liing
movement, enabling the person to maintain stability and to control their position.
A second car, which is joined to the main car, provides the attachment point for a fall-arrest system. The
fall-arrest system prevents a fall to the ground, substantial platform, water or other substance should the
liing-lowering device or rope fail. Use of the fall-arrest system necessitates the wearing of a full body safety
harness by the worker.
The rail is also tested and rated for rescue purposes - to allow a second person to lower themselves from an
additional pair of cars on the track in order to rescue a worker whohas become incapacitated, or whose fall has
been arrested and cannot get back to a place of safety on their own.
An additional single car can also be used to secure a small tool bag and containers of cleaning agents, to assist
in any maintenance work.
3 - Rating
In normal operation the system is designed for use by one person with a mass,(including clothing and
attached equipment), not in excess of 125 kg. No more than one person may be connected to a two-car
assembly at any one time. The fall-arrest system must be connected to the car with the spring loaded locking
plunger and the liing-lowering system must be connected to the other car.
In order to assist in the rescue of a person whose fall has been arrested by the fall-arrest system, or has become
incapacitated and is not able to self-recover, a second person may suspend themselves and descend to render
assistance from an additional pair of cars. The system has been tested and has been rated for this situation,
so that two persons, each not in excess of 125 kg, may be attached to the rail in an emergency/rescue
situation.

4 - System specification
A system will comprise the following elements:
4.1 Track rail
The rail is low profile and is extruded from 6000 series aluminium, with a hard anodised black finish. The track
rail is secured with M8 countersunk A4-70 stainless steel screws on a 100mm pitch, with car stop plunger
holes spaced 50mm apart from the first fixing, on a100mm pitch. The track rail may be one piece or a multiple
oracks installed in-series, using a joiner insert (2991 5076). Only use designated Lewmar Overside working
tracks.
4.2 One tandem sliding car assembly (two short cars and link plate)
The car is machined from 6000 series aluminium, with a hard anodised black finish. It has recirculating Torlon ball
bearings for free running, low friction performance and low maintenance. The anchor point shackle is forged from
316 grade stainless steel of 8mm diameter, andis free to pivot in a 180 degree arc, 90 degrees each side of the
centre line.
The basic tandem car has two anchor point shackles, one on each car - one anchor point for personal suspension
(overside working) and the second anchor point for fall-arrest.

4.3 Two End stop
Installed one each at both track rail ends, with 2 x M8 countersunk fixings (supplied), through pre-drilled
holes.
One car body houses the spring plunger assembly - a spring loaded stainless steel plunger with a lock up/down
feature for eitherfree running (‘locked up’ position) or engagement with thetrack to prevent lateral movement,
(‘locked down’position). The locked up position is achieved by pulling the plunger up and twisting. The locked
down position is achieved by positioning the plunger over a locating hole on rail (pre-drilled on a 100 mm pitch)
and twisting to allow plunger to engage hole.
An optional third car can be attached to the tandem car assembly using a link plate kit (2991 3316), for the
purpose of carrying tools (Tool Service Car).
