Maintenance Record of this Manual. Moreover the system must be branded with the date of the next

PACKAGING, STORAGE, TRANSPORTATION
Every rail is supplied by Harken in its original packaging in order to prevent the development of dust and dirt and
potential damages.
Check the packaging integrity and if it is damaged, before installing the rail proceed with an accurate inspection.
During the storage and the transportation use the original packaging.
Store the rail in a dry, ventilated, low humidity and not salt place in order to avoid corrosion and protect the
product against impacts, chemical reagents or possible damages, which may affect the performance of the rail.
MAINTENANCE
In order to keep the rail in proper working conditions, remove any dirt, grease, snow, ice or anything that can
prevent the trolley from sliding correctly from the rail. In particular, clean the rail section in contact with the
trolley’s ball bearings correctly. Only use non-abrasive cleaning tools and mild liquid soaps.
Do not let the rail come into contact with concrete, bitumen, paints, acids and solvents.
For the trolley maintenance, refer to the proper manual.
