Safety information

Safety precautions: Before commencing mounting
work on roofs, it must be ensured in all cases that
the non-personal fall protection and fall-arrest
systems required by DIN 18338 (Roof Covering and
Roof Sealing Works) and DIN 18451 (Scaffolding
Works) are in place. See also Builders' Protection
Ordinance [Bauarbeiterschutzverordnung], Federal
Law Gazette 340/1994, paragraphs 7-10! Other
country-specific regulations must be observed!
Safety harnesses should be fixed above the users
whenever possible. Safety harnesses should only be
fastened to sufficiently load-bearing structures or
fixing points!
If non-personal fall protection or fall-arrest systems
cannot be installed for technical reasons, all
personnel must be secured by means of suitable
safety harnesses!
Never use damaged ladders (e.g., wooden ladders
with split runners or rungs, or bent or buckled metal
ladders). Never try to repair broken runners, rungs
or steps on wooden ladders!
Only use safety harnesses (safety belts, lanyards
and straps, shock absorbers, fall arresters) that
were tested and certified by authorized testing
bodies.
Ensure that ladders are put up safely. Observe the
correct leaning angle (68° - 75°). Prevent ladders
from sliding, falling over or sinking into the ground
(e.g. using wider feet, feet suited to the ground or
hooking devices).
If non-personal fall protection or fall-arrest systems
are not provided, working without the use of
suitable safety harnesses may lead to falls from
heights and therefore cause serious or lethal
injuries!
Only lean ladders against secure points. Secure
ladders in traffic areas by suitable cordoning.
Ladders not properly secured against sinking in,
sliding or falling over may lead to dangerous falls!
Contact with live electric overhead cables can be
lethal.
Whenever you are near live overhead electric cables
where contact is possible, only work if:
- it is ensured that they are voltage-free and this is
secured for the duration of work.
- the live parts are secured by covering them or
cordoning them off.
- the prescribed safety distances are maintained
Voltage radius:
1m with .......................voltages up to 1000V
3m with ........voltages from 1000V to 11000V
4m with ......voltages from 11000V to 22000V
5m with ......voltages from 22000V to 38000V
> 5m in case of unknown voltages
