You can also use a hose or high-pressure cleaner for this purpose. Maintenance Maintenance Maintenance Maintenance The KeeGuard ® system is virtually maintenance-free. However, any damaged parts or damaged grub screws must be replaced with original spare parts. Due to the nature of the corrosion protection, in t ime, the finish will become duller. Regular compulsory checks Regular compulsory checks Regular compulsory checks Regular compulsory checks A KeeGuard ® system must be checked at least once a year by a c ompetent person. In the process, it is essential to check that all the grub screw connecti ons are seated firmly as these connections can work loose under the influence of wind or other dynamic loads. Checks and the results must be documented in writin g in the inspection records. A sample page, which you can copy, can be found in the appendix to these operating instructions. Kee Safety Ltd offer this as part of the KEE CHECK Inspection and Assessment Service. Disposal Disposal Disposal Disposal Apart from the rubber mats and re-cycled PVC Weight s, the KeeGuard ® system is made predominantly of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The KeeGuard ® system can therefore be disposed of in a scrap met al facility.

To do this, you must pus h the rails through the tube connectors (if 45-87) or drop the rail into the fitting (if 135-8) on each vertical post. You must note the following points during assembly: For runs greater than 4 metres each section of the top and mid rails must be at least 4.6 m long ( based on maximum 2m & 2.4m bay sizes ). Shorter sec tions are only permissible at the start or at the end of a run or if using smaller bays than 2m. The top and mid rails may only be connected togethe r using 14-8, 15-8, 19-8, BC53-88, 55-8, L14- 7, L15-7, L19-7 & LB54-77 fittings. Ensure the tube connector fittings for the top rail are laterally offset in relation to the fittings f or the mid rail (see diagram below). The offset should be at least 2.4 m. This will give better stability as the fittings are not located within the same vertical p lane. If this is not possible, bay sizes must be re - duced to avoid joining in the same bay.

8. Introduction 0-5 0.3 0.30.3 0.3 Intended use and misuse Intended use and misuse Intended use and misuse Intended use and misuse Intended use Intended use Intended use Intended use When handling or installing the KeeGuard ® system care is necessary when the wind speed is in the region of 17 m.p.h. (gusting to 26 m.p.h. or over). All installation and handling of the KeeGuard ® system should cease when the average(mean) wind spe ed reaches 23 m.p.h. (gusting to 35 m.p.h. or over). The roof must be free from algae, stones, oil, grea se, water accumulation and loose debris. Assembly personnel must be provided with Personal P rotection Equipment (PPE) to prevent them from falling during assembly. The minimum protectiv e equipment consists of a full safety body harness with lanyard, possibly used in conjunction with a Kee Anchor ® system. Misuse Misuse Misuse Misuse The following points are classed as misuse although the type of use appears possible at first glance: Use of the KeeGuard ® system if one of the conditions specified under “in tended use“ is not met. Failure to observe the weights and conditions relat ing to the roof surface specified under “intended use“. If the conditions specified are not adhered t o, then the KeeGuard ® system may possibly fail. Use of a damaged KeeGuard ® system or one which has been assembled incorrectly or is incomplete. Use as a holding device for horizontal rope systems . Use as a fixing point for rope feed or for lowering on a rope. Use by employees without previous instructions from their employer. Dropping or throwing the PVC Weights from a height of approximately 1m so that they land topside down. This could lead to the weights breaking and n o longer being usable. Use under conditions specified is always prohibited ! Should the KeeGuard ® system be used in spite of these instructions, then the possibility of a fall occurring and resulting in severe or fatal injuries cannot be ruled out.

Intended use Intended use Intended use Intended use The KeeGuard ® system is a collective fall prevention system for r oofs which are not accessible to the public but to which access is required for the purp ose of carrying out repairs and maintenance. The KeeGuard ® system is designed as a permanent system. However, dismantling and reconstruction at a different location is permissible under certai n circumstances which are explained in the section entitled “Assembling the KeeGuard ® system “. The KeeGuard ® system is only regarded as being used for its inten ded use if all allall all the following conditions are met: The KeeGuard ® system is governed by various workplace Regulations and Guidelines. Assembly personnel must be familiar with the statutory requi rements arising from these. They must also be familiar with and adhere to the following specifica tions and technical regulations: o HSG-33, Health & Safety in Roofwork, o HSE INDG 284- Working on Flat Roofs o EN ISO 14122-Part 3. The total weight of the KeeGuard ® system depends on the length and configuration of t he whole system. The load-bearing capacity of the roof must at least correspond to the total weight of the system plus potential personnel. If in doubt, you m ust arrange for the roof structure to be examined by a structural engineer before assembly. The maximum permissible horizontal load, applied pe rpendicular to the top rail, is 300 N / m. The KeeGuard ® system must be linked to the building’s lightning p rotection system if possible. The KeeGuard ® system is only designed for use on Asphalt, Concret e Mineral Felt or PVC sheet- covered roofs. The maximum permissible pitch of the flat roof is 3°for EN 14122 Part 3 . The roof surface must be kept free from snow and ic e and free from any lubricants or slippery substances while the assembly work or repairs are b eing carried out. The possibility of the roof surface freezing over or becoming covered in snow d uring use must also be ruled out.
