Protection against falls
• When working at great heights there is a risk of
falling. Appropriate protection measures should
be used.
Uncontrolled operation
• When working in the operating range of the awn-
ing, the automatic control should be deactivated.
There is a risk of crushing and falling.
• In addition, attention should be paid to ensure that
the system cannot be accidentally manually oper-
ated. To do this, interrupt the power supply, e.g.
deactivate fuses or separate the plug coupling at
the motor.
• For manual operation, the operating crank must
be removed and kept safely.
Test run
• When the awning is extended for the first time
there should not be anyone in the area or under
the awning. The fixing materials and brackets
should be subjected to a visual inspection after
extending the awning for first time.
• For test runs, never use automatic controls or
switches which mean that the awning is not within
the sight of the operator (risk of unintended start-
up). The use of a test cable to the motor connec-
tion is recommended.
Usage when there is wind
• If the awning is installed correctly, it will satisfy the
requirements of the wind resistance class as
specified in the technical specifications (► Tech-
nical data – p. 41).
• The awning should be used only for wind speeds
declared in the wind resistance class.
Usage when there is rain
• If the tilt of the awning is less than 35% = 19°,
measured horizontally, then the awning should
not be extended in the rain. There is hazard of
water accumulating in the cloth of the awning,
through which the awning can be damaged or fall
down.
Usage when there is snow or ice
• The awning should not be extended when there is
a risk of snow or frost. There is a risk that the awn-
ing may be damaged or fall.
• The automatic control must be deactivation in the
event of a risk of frost.
Leaves and foreign bodies
• Leaves and other materials on the awning cloth,
in the awning box and foreign bodies lying on the
guide rails should be removed immediately. There
is a risk that the awning may be damaged or fall.
Obstacles
• There should not be any obstructions in the exten-
sion area of the awning. There is a risk of people
being crushed.
• If the awning is installed at a height of less than
2.5 metres over accessible travel paths, the awn-
ing may only be operated via a switch within view
of the moving parts. Electrical controls, radio
drives with push button switches, push button
switches etc. are not permitted in this instance.
36
• The push button must mounted be within sight of
the drop profile, but away from the moving parts,
ideally at a height of 1.3 metres (national regula-
tions regarding disabled persons should be
observed).
• There is a crushing and cutting area between the
moving parts of the awning. Clothing or body parts
can be caught by these moving parts.
• Any additional loads on the awning caused by
attached objects or rope tensioning may lead to
damage and falling of the awning and are there-
fore not permitted.
Automatic control
• An awning may not be extended unattended. A
automatic control may fail under extreme condi-
tions (e.g. power failure, defects, sudden storms).
There is a risk that the awning may be damaged
or fall.
• Recommendation: When not there, switch the
automatic control to manual operation and retract
the awning.
Cleaning and maintenance work in the
extension area of the awning
• Motor-operated awnings may be extended unin-
tentionally. It should be ensured that the awning is
not extended when cleaning and maintenance
work (e.g. building cleaners) is being carried out
(e.g. deactivate fuse).
Maintenance
• Safe and risk-free use of the awning can be guar-
anteed only if the awning is checked and main-
tained on a regular basis. Inspect the awning reg-
ularly for signs of wear or damage to its covering
material or frame.
• If any damages are identified, a professional
should be given the task of repairing it. Awnings
that are in need of repair should not be used.
• Check the awning regularly for any signs of wear
or damages
