SAFETY INFORMATION
All cable crossovers in the DEFENDER series are designed to protect cables of all types against damage, and visi-
tors as well as operators from injuries by tripping. To ensure these goals, the following safety instructions for use
of the cable protectors must be observed:
• This user's manual is an integral part of the product and must be read carefully before use.
• DEFENDER cable crossovers may only be used in accordance with their intended purposes and maximum load-
bearing capacity. Valid parameters can be found in the detailed description of the respective product variant.
• DEFENDER cable crossovers are designed for use on firm and level ground. The load specified in the detailed
descriptions is achieved only on level and solid ground. Load-bearing capacity may be greatly reduced on
uneven or soft ground.
Please note that additional markings / hazard warnings or even permits may be required when using cable
crossovers on public thoroughfares, walkways, etc.
• Use DEFENDER cable crossovers only with original replacement parts and accessories.
ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT:
• Do not modify the product in ANY way. Modifications to the DEFENDER cable protector
change the product’s characteristics, reduce its protective effect, and lead to a loss of the warranty.
• Do NOT bridge over ANY ditches, shafts, stairs, or similar depressions.
• Do NOT support pedestals, scaffolding, beams, and similar on the cable protectors.
• Do NOT run rigid gas lines in the cable protectors.
• Do NOT run cables with a voltage >500V in the cable protectors.
• Fill the cable ducts up to a max. of 70% to the underside of the cover.
To ensure that the trip protection does not itself become a tripping hazard:
• Connect the cable protectors in complete sections.
• Check that the connectors are flush for each installation.
• Check that the lid closures function for each installation.
• Make sure that the lid closure snaps securely into the base.
• Keep the hinge area and lid closure clean.
• Remove any excess lubricant from the hinges after care.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Cable protectors are used to protect floor cables that are not permanently installed, for example at trade shows,
markets and in the event industry. Cable protectors are used to prevent people from tripping.
You have chosen the DEFENDER series and thus made the best choice when it comes to protecting your cables
and people. DEFENDER cable protectors are characterised by:
• DEKRA / TÜV SÜD certified safety.
• patented with self-cleaning hinge (EU Patent No.: EP1366550).
• Development and production in Germany.
• Fire protection class B2 (also available as B1 - flame retardant according to DIN4102).
• stringent raw material and production controls.
• very stable, tear-resistant and 100% recyclable plastic.
• resistance to oil, acid and petrol.
• temperature resistance from -30°C to +60°C.
• a shore A hardness of 88 ± 4.
• a wide range of product variants with coordinated system elements.
• a wide range of uses, from construction sites to offices.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
All cable protectors in the DEFENDER series are made of extremely sturdy, non-breakable plastic (polyurethane).
The protectors can be easily cleaned, even using a steam jet cleaner. In order to ensure trouble-free functioning,
however, the hinge area and the lid closure should always be kept clean; slightly lubricate hinges and closure on
a regular basis. For this, we recommend using a commercially available Teflon or silicone spray. Wipe off excess
lubricant after application to avoid any risk of slipping.

SETUP
The cable protectors from the DEFENDER series are easy and safe to set up. Surfaces, edges and corners are
designed in such a way that there is no danger of injury. Cable protectors with a weight up to 20 kg can be
transported safely by one person. Cable protectors weighing more than 20 kg can be transported safely by two
people.
Each cable crossover has connectors and corresponding sockets that enable you to connect cable crossovers in
the same series endlessly with one another. Generally, sections are stable enough to be walked on or driven over
without any additional precautions. To find the right cable crossover for your respective requirements, please see
the attached detailed product description for the load-bearing capacity and use.
For the product versions DEFENDER 3 AND ULTRA L 2, special holes for floor anchoring are provided. If complete
sections from these product variants are exposed to increased requirements, so that there is a risk of the section
shifting during use, we recommend additionally anchoring the section to the ground or floor. Please note that
additional markings / hazard warnings or even permits may be required when using cable crossovers on public
thoroughfares, walkways, etc.
The load-bearing capacity specified in the detailed descriptions is achieved only on level and solid ground.
Load-bearing capacity may be greatly reduced on uneven or soft ground. In such cases, you should conduct
appropriate load tests before using the crossover. We guarantee the load-bearing capacity of our cable protectors
only with proper use of unmodified products on firm and level ground.
DEFENDER cable protectors help protect pipes (e.g. water/sewage) and low voltage cables up to 500 V (e.g. com-
munication/control cables/power supply). The cable protectors are NOT suitable for rigid gas pipes.
When using fragile couplings and connectors within the connected section, make sure there is sufficient space
to either side and above. Each user is responsible for the manner of installation and selection of cables to be
protected with the help of the DEFENDER cable crossovers.
After installation (except for the Compact and Office models), the lids can be opened by pulling them upward.
They snap into the open position automatically and stay open until you close them again, thus making it easier to
run your cables. After running your cables, close the lid. When doing so, make certain that the lid closure snaps
into the base securely. This is the only way to ensure that the lid stays closed under load.

DEFENDER MICRO 2
The compact Defender® MICRO cable protector is ideally suited to indoor and outdoor use such as at exhibitions
and trade fairs and in shopping centres, stages or studios. It has two 35 x 30 mm cable guides for high-power
cables and water hoses. With a maximum load capacity of 2 tons per 20 x 20 cm area, MICRO cable protectors
are able to withstand vehicles, trolleys and pedestrians. Their high level of tread and slip resistance is derived
from the LaserGrip® surface with its special structure and unique design. Extremely breakage-resistant TPU
material ensures the durability of the robust cable protector.
Even greater safety thanks to the new 3D LaserGrip® surface
The innovative design of the 3D LaserGrip® surface significantly increases tread and slip resistance. Due to the
special shape and surface structure, the risk of moving an entire line of Defender® MICRO cable protectors is
significantly reduced - even when driven over by heavy vehicles.
Label your cable protectors! All Defender cable protectors can be customised with your company logo from a
minimum order of just 30 units per model. The format requirements are available in the download area. Feel free
to get in touch with us.

DEFENDER COMPACT
The affordable variant of the Defender 3 system. The arrangement of supports moulded into the bottom permits
the Defender Compact to be laid over numerous cables, supporting the weight of crossing vehicles. Black
polyurethane construction with a ribbed non-slip surface. The ultimate enhancement for heavy loads: The unique
Defender Compact base with a weight of 3.5 kg is attached to the Defender Compact cable crossover to form a
single unit. Thus reinforced, the Defender Compact cable crossover can withstand even high loads. Even forklifts
and lifting trucks can now drive over this crossover without problems. Five cable channels with a diameter of 22
mm each provide ample space for many applications. If multiple DEFENDER Compact cable crossovers with a
base are assembled in a line, the row now remains flat as stable row even when driven over by a car.
This simple cable protector is a so-called "drop over" crossover. First you run your cables and then cover them
with the COMPACT. If you have chosen the COMPACT with BASE, first assemble the BASE into a fixed LINE. Now
run your cables on the base before covering both with the COMPACT. The bars of the COMPACT engage in the
BASE and connect both to form a fixed unit. You can make the line more rigid by laying the COMPACT so that it is
offset in relation to the BASE.
COMPACT 805 x 435 x 37 mm Weight: 3.5 Kg
approx. 2t on an area of 20 x 20 cm. Not to be used in street traffic. However, automobiles may still drive
slowly over the protector.

DEFENDER NANO
The smallest unit, with great potential. Light, professional, wheelchair compatible and universally useable. With
its six channels, the DEFENDER NANO meets all expectations for professional cable protection in a minimum of
space. Thanks to the addition of this compact, extremely light (only approx. 4 kg!) cable crossover that can be
driven on in the familiar black/yellow design, the compact segment of the series is now complete. Like all of
the DEFENDER cable crossovers, the DEFENDER NANO is resistant to oil, acids & petrol and has a patented self-
cleaning hinged closure.
NANO 1000 x 280 x 32 mm Weight: 4.47 Kg

DEFENDER 3
Black polyurethane construction with textured non-slip surface and highly visible yellow polyethylene lid and
three cable channels. The crossovers can be joined together by connector plugs available individually. Each
crossover comes with one pair of connector plugs. The new lid with patented hinge (EU Patent No.: EP1366550)
now remains open while cables are laid. The integral zipper fastener provides improved protection from dirt and/
or tearing off of the lid in comparison with conventional hook-and-eye fastener systems. A complete range of
accessories expands the Defender 3 into a flexible system for protecting expensive cables and multicores.
DEFENDER 3 1000 x 600 x 73 mm Weight: 22 Kg
Safe load: ca. 5t on a surface area of 20 x 20 cm. Generally, any street-legal vehicle can drive over this
crossover. Also still permitted by road traffic regulations in terms of height. High stability even in the con-
nected line.
Range of application: As for MIDI and MINI, but for larger cables.
