When setting the structure on the foundation, the most important thing is to keep the vertical position of the base of the Integration Wheel

There are two options for installing the device in the ground.

Option 1
If a concrete screed has been made, the concrete has set and is ready for further work, place the Wheel on the concrete and make holes for the anchors in appropriate places. According to the manufacturer Fischer FIS VL 410 C, a diameter of fi 12 is required for the M10 pin. Install foundation pins in the holes according to the instructions of the chemical anchor manufacturer. The minimum length of the pin protruding from the foundation is shown in the drawing. Follow the setting time of the anchors according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. The labyrinth should be attached to the foundations using washers and cap nuts. Before screwing in the nut, coat the thread with Loctite 243.

When drilling, be especially ca refuel not to damage the paint coating.

Option 2
If the integration wheel is mounted on pulleys, it should be placed on the parts of the foundation pins protruding beyond the foundation and fixed with washers and cap nuts. Before screwing in the nut, coat the thread with Loctite 243.

Functional tests before putting the device into use Before putting the device into use, check the following functionalities to confirm the safety of users and correct installation:

• Stability of mounting the device on the foundation,
• if there are no dents or other damage in the wheel ring cover, which may have been caused, for example, during transport, whether the wheel rings turn smoothly, slightly, but not loosely,
• Does the rings slow down spontaneously after twisting them,
• The rotating rings of the wheel do not rub against each other,
• The wheel rings have no play. Only the movement of the rings of the circle around the center axis is allowed,
• There are no sharp edges on the rings that could pose a threat to users.

 MAINTENANCE, INSPECTION, REPAIRS

It is recommended to keep a book of inspections of devices in accordance with PN-EN 1176 standard. It is recommended to use the following types of inspections, to eliminate the potential risks for users and determine the need for service or maintenance:

• Routine visual inspection carried out every 1-7 days. Its purpose is to identify hazards that may result from normal use, acts of vandalism or weather conditions. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the surface around the Inclusive Wheel and the access ramps (glass, stones, packaging, etc.). As the device is based on a single pole, its stability must be checked as part of a routine inspection.

• Functional inspection carried out every 3 months. It refers to verify the correct operation of the device in terms of functionality. A functional inspection is a more detailed inspection than a routine inspection, checking the operation (functionality) and stability of the device in detail, mainly in terms of its wear.
  Check:

• if the wheels turn smoothly, slightly, but not loosely, when you turn the wheel, the wheel brakes by itself,

• Do the turning wheels rub against each other,

• That there is no play in the wheels, only movement of the wheel around the center axis is allowed The condition of the smoothed surfaces should also be checked, as well as any protruding, sharp elements, edges, protruding screws. The assessment also covers the degree of strength of the entire structure and the unavailability of the edges or surfaces of the foundations to the user.

• Annual main inspection carried out to establish the general condition of the equipment in relation to the safety level. It is recommended to pay special attention to factory-sealed (non-dismountable) parts. Annual inspection may require disassembly of the device and sending to Manufacturer for service Check:

• Stability of mounting the device on the foundation,

• If there are no dents or other damage in the wheel ring cover, which may have been caused, for example, during transport,

• Whether the wheel rings turn smoothly, slightly, but not loosely,

• Does the rings slow down spontaneously after twisting them,

• That the rotating rings of the wheel do not rub against each other,

• That the wheel rings have no play. Only the movement of the rings of the circle around the center axis is allowed,

• There are no sharp edges on the rings that could pose a threat to users.

In the event of a failure of devices or any malfunctions in their operation, the devices should be secured against users until the damage is removed by fencing it with a construction signal tape with a suspended sign informing about the damage, for example: “WARNING DEVICE FAILURE”.

Contact the Manufacturer to explain the malfunction and take corrective actions . The principles of warranty repairs and service are described in this manual.

Maintenance

The device has no parts that require periodic maintenance. If any irregularities in operation are noticed during periodic inspections, diagnose the cause and replace the worn parts. As the device is based on one pole, in accordance with the recommendations of the PN-EN 1176 standard, increased controls should be applied in terms of the stability of the device and the quality of its connection to the foundation
