Safety precautions: Before commencing mounting
work on roofs, it must be ensured in all cases that
the non- personal fall protection and fall-arrest
systems required by DIN 18338 (Roof Covering and
Roof Sealing Works) and DIN 18451 (Scaffolding
Works) are in place . See also Builders' Protection
Ordinance [Bauarbeiterschutzverordnung], Federal
Law Gazette 340/ 1994, paragraphs 7-10! Other
country-specifi c regulations must be observed!
If non-personal fall protection or fall-arrest systems
cannot be installed for technical reasons, all per-
sonnel must be secured by means of suitable safety
harnesses!
Only use safety harnesses (safety belts, lanyards
and straps, shock absorbers, fall arresters) that
were tested and certifi ed by authorized testing
bodies .
If non-personal fall protection or fall-arrest systems
are not provided, working without the use of suita-
ble safety harnesses may lead to falls from heights
and therefore cause serious or lethal injuries!
Ladders not properly secured against sinking in,
sliding or falling over may lead to dangerous falls!
Whenever you are near live overhead electric cables
where contact is possible, only work if:
–
it is ensured that they are voltage-free and this
is secured for the duration of work .
–
the live parts are secured by covering them or
cordoning them off .
the prescribed safety distances are maintained .
–
Voltage radius:
1 m . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .voltages up to 1000V
3 m . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .voltages from 1000V to 11000V
4 m . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .voltages from 11000V to 22000V
5 m . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .voltages from 22000V to 38000V
> 5 m in case of unknown voltages
The manufacturer hereby guarantees to take back
products identifi ed with an eco-label and to recycle
the materials used . Only the heat transfer medium
specifi ed may be used!
Safety harnesses should be fi xed above the users
whenever possible . Safety harnesses should only be
fastened to suffi ciently load-bearing structures or
fi xing points!
Never use damaged ladders (e.g., wooden ladders
with split runners or rungs, or bent or buckled metal
ladders). Never try to repair broken runners, rungs
or steps on wooden ladders!
Ensure that ladders are put up safely . Observe the
correct leaning angle (68° - 75°) . Prevent ladders
from sliding, falling over or sinking into the ground
(e.g. using wider feet, feet suited to the ground or
hooking devices) .
Only lean ladders against secure points . Secure
ladders in traffi c areas by suitable cordoning.
Contact with live electric overhead cables can be
lethal .
Wear protective goggles when drilling and handling
collectors!
Wear safety shoes when carrying out installation
work!
Wear cut-proof safety gloves when mounting coll-
ectors!
Wear a helmet when carrying out installation work!
