SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
INNOTECH-POINT may only be installed by competent experts familiar with the roof safety
system.
You must be familiar with these instructions, as well as with the local safety regulations as
a prerequisite for installing and using the system. You must also be physically and
mentally fit and trained in the use of PSE
(Personal Safety Equipment).
Medical conditions (cardiovascular problems, intake of medicines, alcohol) can affect the
safety of the user when working in high places.
Adhere to the respective accident prevention regulations (e.g. working on roofs) when
installing/using the INNOTECH POINT attachment device.
A plan must be available that specifies rescue procedures for all possible emergencies.
Before starting work, ensure that no objects can fall to the ground from the work site. The
area below the work site (sidewalk, etc.) must be kept clear.
The fitters must ensure that the substrate is suitable for fastening the anchorage device.
If in doubt consult a structural engineer.
The anchorage device on the roof is designed for stress in all directions parallel to the
installation surface or at right angles to the anchor.
If uncertainties arise during installation, it is imperative that you contact the
manufacturer.
The roof covering must be properly sealed in accordance with applicable guidelines.
Document the professional fastening of the fall arrest system to the building with photos
of each fitting situation.
Ensure that stainless steel does not come into any contact with swarf or steel tools, as this
may lead to corrosion.
All stainless steel bolts must be greased with a suitable lubricant before installation.
Plan, install, and use the anchorage point in such a manner that no one can fall over the
edge if the personal safety equipment is used properly (see planning documents at
www.innotech.at).
At the access to the roof safety system you must document the positions of the anchorage
devices by means of diagrams (e.g. view of the roof from above).
The minimum free space required between the roof edge and the ground is calculated as
follows:
Manufacturer's specification of the personal safety equipment used + sag of the cable
according to table + deflection of the cable + body 1 m safety margin.
