In addition to the applicable rules and regulations, please follow all guidelines for safe handling 
and/or  installation  of  BenQ  Solar  modules.    In  addition  to  the  guidelines  below,  always 
observe industry best practices when handling and/or installing any BenQ Solar module. Save 
this Installation Guide for future reference.

LIFTING AND HANDLING    

 

Do not lift the module or carry module by junction box or PV cables. 

 

Do not drill holes in the frame.   

 

Avoid scratching the frame.    Scratches to the frame will compromise protective coating 

and can result in corrosion or weakened structure. 

 

Do  not  scratch  or  damage  the  module  backsheet.    Scratches  to  the  backsheet  could 

affect module performance. 

 

Do not stand on, drop, scratch or allow objects to hit modules (especially module glass). 

 

Do not install or handle the modules when wet or during periods of high wind.   

 

Do not install the modules where there may be flammable gases or vapors, since sparks 

may be produced. 

 

Save these instructions for future reference.
