IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING NOTICE - FOR THE SAFETY OF PER-
SONS, IT IS IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW THESE IN-
STRUCTIONS
THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE TO BE KEPT
∙ WARNING! Working at high altitudes bears the risk
of falling. Always wear appropriate fall protection.
∙ If the side blind needs to be installed at higher
levels that require the use of ropes, make sure the
side blind is:
- taken out of its packaging,
- the ropes are suitable to carry the load and fixed
in a way that they cannot slip,
- the side blind is lifted evenly and horizontally.
The same applies to the dismantling of the side blind.
∙ Ladders and scaffolding may not be positioned
against or attached to the side blind. A firm foot-
ing and level ground is necessary for their support.
Only use ladders and scaffolding with a sufficiently
high load-bearing capacity.
∙ At first use, make sure that no person or animal
is present in the extraction area of the side blind.
Check if the fastenings and mounting brackets are
still tight after the first extraction.
∙ Use the side blind only as specified in the intended
use. Changes such as additions or conversions
that are not provided by the manufacturer may be
made only with the written consent of the manu-
facturer.
∙ Ensure that children and persons, who cannot
correctly assess the dangers of improper use and
misuse, do not operate the side blind. Side blinds
in need of repair, with high wear or damage to the
cover or frame, may not be used.
∙ Prior to each operation, visually check the side
blind for damages. If damage is visible, stop using
the side blind immediately and seek for authorized
personnel to repair the damage.
∙ Do not touch moving parts during operation.
∙ There is the potential of crushing, squashing and
cutting between front profile, moving profiles and
the housing. Prevent clothing or body parts from
getting caught and drawn-in by the side blind.
∙ When working in the extraction area of the side
blind, make sure that it cannot be operated acci-
dentally.
∙ The use of tensioning cables or additional load
(e.g. hanging objects to the side blind) can cause
serious damage or crash to the side blind and are
not permitted.
∙ Foliage or other foreign objects on the side blind
cloth must be removed immediately, as they can
damage or crash the side blind.
∙ Retract the side blind during rain, snow or wind to
avoid damage.
∙ Do not extend the side blind during snow or frost
(danger of frozen fabric). Snow and / or ice can
destroy the side blind.
∙ Only use manufacturer-approved replacement
parts.
∙ When dismantling and disposing of the side blind,
the prestressed parts (e.g. back pull systems) must
be completely relaxed.
