SAFETY GUIDELINES
Vestil diligently strives to identify foreseeable hazards associated with the use of its products. However, no
manual can address every conceivable risk. The end-user ultimately is responsible for exercising sound judgment
at all times.
Electrocution might result if any part of the bollard or the sleeve contacts electrified wires. Reduce
the likelihood of electrocution by applying
common sense
:
DO NOT contact live electrical wires, buried cables, or underground gas lines during installation. Determine
the locations of all underground utility lines BEFORE beginning to dig the hole for the bollard sleeve. Choose a
location that is at least 3 feet away from all underground lines on all sides.
If this product is used improperly or carelessly, the operator and/or bystanders might sustain
serious personal injuries or even be killed. ALWAYS use the product properly:
Failure to read and understand the entire manual before assembling, installing, using or servicing the product
constitutes misuse
. Read the manual to refresh your understanding of proper use and maintenance procedures.
Determine the net weight of the bollard from the “Product Specifications” table below. DO NOT attempt to install
the bollard without assistance if you cannot comfortably lift and control it.
DO NOT modify the bollard or sleeve. Modifications automatically void the Limited Warranty and might make
the bollard unsafe to use.
