2. General safety notes
BITO shelving and racking is intended for storing and picking
unit loads such as cartons, bins and containers or individual
items.
This storage installation has been designed for manual loa-
ding and retrieval (servicing with lift trucks is not allowed).
Unit loads, shelf loads and bay loads must not exceed rated
load capacity limits. Make sure that loads are evenly distri-
buted since structural design has been been calculated for
uniformly distributed loads.
Any other use or any use exceeding that speci fi ed is an
infringement of use for the intended purpose.
Follow the instructions on design & layout, components &
technical equipment, assembly & operation speci fi ed in the
order documents.
Observe your national/local safety regulations for warehouse
equipment and machinery issued by your statutory accident
insurance association(s) as well as the regulations set up by
your occupational health and safety at work acts and relevant
general accident prevention regulations.
The present instructions do not apply for shelving and
racking used outdoors or in harsh environments subject to
wind, snow and other mechanical stress factors. Moreover,
load capacities indicated in the present document are not
valid for earthquake hazard zones (structural design does not
resist seismic forces). Inform BITO in writing if your installa-
tion is to be set up in an earthquake hazard area and request
adaptation of structural design parameters to the seismic
requirements of your region.
Damaged or deformed racking components must immediate-
ly be replaced.
BITO Shelving and racking is not suited for use in environ-
ments with exposure to corrosion, splashing liquids, decom-
position, vibrations, explosions, radiation.
It is not permitted to use loads or load carriers which due to
their nature are subject to oxidation, rust, decomposition or
which might impair proper functioning of any kind of mecha-
nism.
