Safety Instructions

This product has left our premises in absolutely perfect condition. In order to maintain this condition and to ensure a safe operation, it is absolutely necessary for the user to follow the safety instructions and warning notes written in this user manual. Damages caused by the disregard of this user manual are not subject to warranty. The dealer will not accept liability for any resulting defects or problems. If the product will be operated in any way different to the one described in this manual, it may suffer damages and the guarantee becomes void. Furthermore, any other operation may lead to dangers like crash etc. Please consider that unauthorized modifications on the adapter are forbidden due to safety reasons.

Operating Determinations

This coupler is designed for installing projectors, lighting effects etc. on a truss system. The maximum load must never be exceeded.

This product is designed for professional use, e.g. on stages, in discotheques, theatres etc. Make sure that the area below the installation place is blocked when rigging, derigging or servicing.

Installation Instructions

DANGER TO LIFE! Please consider the DIN 15922 and the respective national norms during the installation! The installation must only be carried out by an authorized dealer! Before taking into operation for the first time, the installation has to be approved by an expert.
The installation of the device has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net. This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the device staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machinetechnical installations are approved by: a) an expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another time. b) an expert after every four year in the course of an acceptance test. c) a skilled person once a year.
The device should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
The device has to be installed out of the reach of people.
Overhead rigging requires extensive experience, including (but not limited to) calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the device. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a professional structural rigger. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and or damage to property.
Devices in hanging installations may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do not install the device!
Before rigging make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the device’s weight.
For overhead use, always install an appropriate safety bond. You must only use safety bonds complying with DIN 56927, quick links complying with DIN 56926, shackles complying with DIN EN 1677- 1 and BGV C1 carbines. The safety bonds, quick links, shackles and the carbines must be sufficiently dimensioned and used correctly in accordance with the latest industrial safety regulations (e. g. BGV C1, BGI 810-3).
The maximum drop distance must never exceed 20 cm. A safety rope which already hold the strain of a crash or which is defective must not be used again.
For overhead rigging in public or industrial areas, a series of safety instructions have to be followed that this manual can only give in part. The operator must therefore inform himself on the current safety instructions and consider them. The manufacturer cannot be made liable for damages caused by incorrect installations or insufficient safety precautions!

Maintenance

The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine technical installations are inspected by: a) an expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test. b) a skilled person once a year. The following points have to be considered during the inspection: a) All screws used for installing the devices or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and must not be corroded. b) There must not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots (ceiling, suspension, trussing).
Observe prescribed testing deadlines: a) Once a year by an expert. b) Every four years by a skilled person. c) Before every use for breakage and function by the operator.
Should you have further questions, please contact your dealer.
