and contact Guardian to inquire about its return or repair.

Cleaning after use is important for maintaining the safety and longevity of The Rack. Remove all
dirt, corrosives, and contaminants from The Rack before and after each use. If The Rack cannot
be cleaned with plain water, use mild soap and water, then rinse and wipe dry. NEVER clean The
Rack with corrosive substances.

When not in use, store equipment where it will not be affected by heat, light, excessive
moisture, chemicals, or other degrading elements.

KEEP INSTRUCTIONS AVAILABLE FOR REFERENCE. Record Date of First Use.

Prior to EACH use, inspect The Rack for deficiencies, including, but not limited to, corrosion,
deformation, pits, burrs, rough surfaces, sharp edges, cracking, rust, paint buildup, excessive
heating, alteration, and missing or illegible labels. IMMEDIATELY remove The Rack from service if
defects or damage are found.  Prior to EACH use, inspect all rope to be used in combination with
The Rack.

Ensure that applicable work area is free of all damage, including, but not limited to, debris, rot,
rust, decay, cracking, and hazardous materials. Ensure that selected work area will support the
application-specific minimum loads set forth in this instruction manual. Work area MUST be
stable.

At least every 6 months, a Competent Person other than the user must inspect The Rack.

Competent Person inspections MUST be recorded in inspection log in instruction manual
and on equipment inspection grid label. The Competent Person must sign their initials in
the box corresponding to the month and year the inspection took place.
