— F r e e L i t e r a t u r e A v a i l a b le Tri-Tex Marine Inc., a subsidiary of Baldt Inc., recently introduced the new Fitz-Wright Handy Elevated Lifting Package (H.E.L.P.).

The Handy Elevated Lifting Package (H.E.L.P.) accompanies the worker to the job site and provides safe aerial and confined entry rescues.

The H.E.L.P. system consists of a heavy duty fire-resistant nylon harness, seat belt webbing, buckles, and associated rope and block attachments.

For aerial rescues, these attachments are self-contained in a carrying bag; for confined entry rescues, the attachments are self-contained in a metal box secured to the ladder. All H.E.L.P. system components meet or exceed C.S.A. standards.

In confined entry applications, the guide bar of the harness prevents the victim from twisting and being caught in the ladder rungs or the manhole during the life procedure. The mechanical advantage of the top block system reduces the entire rescue operation to less than four minutes for one rescuer.
