Honeywell MILLER MIGHTEVAC Gebrauchsanweisung Seite 5

Environmental hazards should be considered when selecting fall protection equipment. Equip-
ment must not be exposed to environmental hazards and chemicals which may produce a harmful
effect. Use in highly corrosive or caustic environments dictates a more frequent inspection and
servicing program to ensure the integrity of the device is maintained.
Do not allow equipment to come in contact with anything that will damage it including, but not
limited to, sharp, abrasive, rough or high-temperature surfaces, welding, heat sources, electrical
hazards, or moving machinery.
Do not expose the equipment to any hazard which it is not designed to withstand. Consult the
manufacturer in cases of doubt.
Always check for obstructions below the work area to make sure potential fall path is clear.
Allow adequate fall clearance below the work surface.
Never remove product labels, which include important warnings and information for the author-
ized person/user.
