1 1 NOTES ON THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The classification of the contents is based on the life stages of the
linear drive (hereinafter referred to as the "device").
The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes to the technical
specifications stated in these installation instructions. They may differ
slightly from the respective version of the device without the factual
information being fundamentally changed or losing validity. The cur-
rent status of the technical specifications can be requested from the
manufacturer at any time. Claims may not be asserted in this respect.
Deviations from the text and images are possible and depend on the
technical development, equipment and accessories of the device.
The manufacturer shall provide information on any differing details re-
lating to special versions by means of the sales documentation. Other
specifications shall remain unaffected by this.
1 2 STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES
The basic health and safety requirements of the applicable laws,
standards and guidelines were applied during the design phase.
The safety of the device is confirmed by the Declaration of Incorpo-
ration (see chapter "Declaration of Incorporation"). All information re-
lating to safety in these installation instructions refers to the laws and
regulations that are currently valid in Germany. All information in these
installation instructions must be complied with at all times and without
limitation. In addition to the safety information in these installation in-
structions, the regulations applicable at the place of installation with
regard to accident prevention, environmental protection and occupa-
tional safety must be observed and adhered to. The guidelines and
standards for safety assessment can be found in the Declaration of
Incorporation.
1 3 USE IN LINE WITH INTENDED USE
The device is designed for use in sunlight and shade systems. Other
fields of application must be agreed in advance with the manufactur-
er.
The device must not be used in areas where there is danger to per-
sonnel or in potentially explosive environments.
If direct or indirect danger to personnel cannot be ruled out, addi-
tional measures (e.g. covers, barriers, etc.) must be taken in order to
minimise the potential risk accordingly.
The operator alone is liable for any damage resulting from non-intend-
ed use of the device. The manufacturer assumes no liability for per-
sonal injury or damage to property caused by misuse or procedural
errors, improper operator control or improper start of operation. The
device may only be operated by trained and authorised specialist
personnel who observe all of the safety information.
Safe and error-free use of the device and its operational safety can
only be guaranteed if the device is used as intended, in accordance
with the information in this installation manual.
Intended use includes observation of and adherence to all of the safe-
ty information specified in these installation instructions, as well as all
applicable regulations of trade associations and the applicable laws
concerning environmental protection. Use in compliance with the in-
tended use also includes adherence to the operating regulations pre-
scribed in these installation instructions.
1 4 FORESEEABLE MISUSE
Installation deviating from the intended purpose approved by the
manufacturer is considered foreseeable misuse.
