Unger Lasso safety tool

The Unger Lasso (SL010) is a safety lanyard designed for window cleaners to prevent tools from falling when working at height. This helps protect property below and reduces the risk of injury to people or damage to equipment. 

Features and construction

Purpose: The Lasso attaches a tool, such as a squeegee or scraper, to your belt, preventing it from dropping. It is especially useful when working on a ladder or in elevated areas.

Construction: The lanyard has a strong, flexible, coiled cord. The bright yellow color provides high visibility.

Attachments: It features a spring clip on one end for easy attachment to tools and an adjustable strap with a hook-and-loop (Velcro-style) fastening on the other end to secure it to your belt.

Compatibility: The spring clip can be attached to a wide range of cleaning tools, including the Unger Ninja and ErgoTec series, which have designated locking mechanisms for this purpose.

Weight and size: The Lasso is lightweight at only about 30 grams and extends up to 1.5 meters, though a normal working stretch is between 0.6 and 0.9 meters. 

How to use

Attach to tool: Use the spring clip to securely fasten one end of the Lasso to your tool.

Attach to belt: Secure the adjustable strap around your belt or tool belt.

Work safely: Proceed with your task, knowing that your tool is tethered and won't fall if you lose your grip.

Inspect regularly: Routinely check the Lasso for any signs of wear or damage to the strap, coil, or clip. Replace it if necessary to maintain safety.
