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 fixture staying in the area below the installation
place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.

approved by an expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes
before taking into operation another time.
