3SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 GENERAL
The following safety instructions and the latest technical developments must be
taken into account.
-The safety system may only be assembled by competent, qualied persons who are
familiar with the safety system. It may only be assembled in accordance with the
latest technical developments.
- The protective equipment may only be used by persons who:
• have been trained to use "Personal Protective Equipment" (PPE).
• are physically and psychologically sound. Health restrictions such as
cardiovascular problems, medication use, alcohol consumption, etc.
decrease user safety.
• are familiar with the locally applicable safety rules.
- During assembly / use of the safety system, the applicable accident prevention regu-
lations (e.g. for work on roofs) must be observed, as well as the rules and norms for
the use of personal protective equipment for fall prevention.
- The possibilities, limits and risks when using the protective equipment must be
understood and accepted.
- A plan must be in place that includes lifesaving measures for all possible emergenci-
es (e.g. at least two INNOTECH "VERT-GLEIT-50‟, ...).
- Before beginning work, measures must be taken to ensure that no objects can fall
down from the working area. The area under the working area (sidewalk, etc.) must
be kept clear.
- Every safety system is subject to maximal load limits. These are visible on the serial
plate of the safety system and must not be exceeded.
- The serial plate of the safety system must be posted in a place which is visible for
the user.
- Should any renovation work be done in the immediate vicinity of the safety system
after receipt of the system, it must be veried that this work has no impact on the
safety provided by the installed system! In case of doubt, a structural engineer or
the manufacturer should be consulted.
- After stress on the system from a fall, the entire safety system must be taken out
of operation and tested by a qualied professional (component parts, anchors to the
substructure, etc.).
- If use of the safety system is to be allowed to external contractors, their understan-
ding of these user instructions is to be conrmed in writing.
- In case of non-natural environmental conditions (e.g. chemical substances) the
manufacturer must be consulted.
-The safety system is not to be modied in any way.

3SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3.2 FOR INSTALLERS: FOR SAFE INSTALLATION
3.3 FOR USERS: FOR SAFE USE
Should anything be unclear during the installation process, it is imperative
that the manufacturer be contacted.
- If the equipment is sold to an organization in another country, the user instructions
must be made available in the local language.
- The lightning protection regulations of the country must be followed.
- All stainless steel screws are to be lubricated with appropriate lubricant before
installation (included: Weicon AntiSeize ASW 10000 or equivalent).
- Stainless steel may not come into contact with sander dust or steel tools. This leads
to corrosion.
- The appropriate attachment of the safety system to the construction must be docu-
mented with anchor logs and photos of the circumstances of installation.
- The installers must ensure that the substructure is appropriate for the anchoring of
the INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50" safety system. In case of doubt, consult a structural
engineer.
- It is also essential that the mounting ladder on which the safety system is installed
is suciently stable.
- To ensure safe entry / mounting of the safety system all necessary work safety
regulations are to be observed.
-Because there is a danger of ground contact over the rst 2 m, one must be especi-
ally cautious when getting on and o of the system.
- The minimum spacing between 2 persons on the safety system is 3 m (measured
from the feet of the upper person to the head of the lower person).
- If there is a risk of ice buildup, it is necessary to check for it constant monitoring of
the INNOTECH "VERT-GLEIT-50‟ spring-loaded eccentric lever. The stainless steel
cable must also be checked to ensure that it is free of ice.
- The individual elements, including the "Personal Protective Equipment" must be used
appropriately, since the protective function of the safety system is otherwise NOT
provided.
- In case of unusually strong winds, the safety system must NOT be used.
-Children and pregnant women should NOT use the safety system.

PRODUCTAPPLICATION/APPROVAL
INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ was developed as a Climbing protection apparatus for
personal safety for 2 persons (1 person per slider).
INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ is intended for use while roping up with personal protective
equipment to provide safety while climbing up and down ladders.
The user is connected to the safety system by a body harness in accordance with EN
361, as well as by the INNOTECH "VERT-GLEIT-50‟ vertical glider. In order to minimise
the fall stress for the user, the INNOTECH "VERT-GLEIT-50‟ is equipped with a shock
absorber.
Maximum total weight allowance: 50 to 130 kg (incl. clothing + equipment)
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the personal protective
equipment used.
MORTAL DANGER in case of incorrect use.
- INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ ONLY to be used in conjuction with personal
protective equipment.
- INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ NOT to be used for workplace positioning.
-NEVER hang loads on the INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟, which are NOT
approved of in this user manual.
!
DANGER
INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ has been tested and certied according to EN 353-1:2014
Notified bureau for type examination:
TÜV Austria Services GmbH, Deutschstrasse 10, A - 1230 Vienna / Austria

6.1 INSPECT BEFORE EACH USE
6INSPECTION
DANGER OF DEATH from damage to
INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50".
- INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ must be in awless condition.
- INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ must be free of dirt and grease.
- INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ IS NOT to be used if :
• Visible damage or wear can be seen on the components,
• other flaws have been identified (loose screw connections,
deformation, corrosion, wear, etc),
• the stress of a fall has been exerted on the construction
(exception: rst aid administration), (check the spring length before
each use!)
• the product designation is illegible.
!
DANGER
INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ is to be checked visually before each use for visible aws.
The useability of the entire safety system must be conrmed through the acceptance
and inspection reports.
In case of doubt regarding the safe functioning of the safety system,
take it out of service and have it tested by a competent professional
(with written conrmation).
Replace the product if needed.
Follow the user manual of the vertical glider used ("VERT-GLEIT-50‟).

9
EN
VERT-SET-50 / Version 170201 / www.innotech.at
Follow the testing intervals found in the inspection log.
6.2 ANNUAL INSPECTION
Have the INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ examined at least once annually by an experienced
professional who is familiar with the safety system. The safety of the user is dependent
upon the eectiveness and durability of the equipment.
Depending upon the intensity of use and the environment, shorter examination intervals
can be necessary (e.g. in case of corrosive atmosphere, etc.).
The qualied professional's examination is to be documented in the testing log included
in the user manual and kept on record with the user manual.
6INSPECTION
All components are guaranteed against manufacturing aws for 2 years from the date of
purchase (under normal conditions of use). The period is shortened when components
are used in corrosive atmospheres.
In case of a stress on the system (fall, snow load, etc.) the guarantee covering compo-
nents which were designed to absorb energy or which were deformed is void.
For system installation and for components which are planned and
installed by professional installation rms under their own responsi-
bility; INNOTECH® takes no responsibility and oers no guarantee in
case of improper installation.

11 INSTALLATION SUBSTRUCTURE
The basic requirement for proper installation of the backup anchor for additional safety
on the construction is an appropriate installation substructure (concrete, steel, etc.) and
the use of the original connecting methods explained in this user manual.
Connection to the ladder
Few ladder rungs can bear the necessary force of 16 kN (as per EN 353-1).
The INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ safety system can therefore be complemented by a
backup anchor for additional safety, "VERT-SAFE-50‟ (not included in standard set),
which allows for attachment to a static load-bearing construction.
When installed correctly, the INNOTECH "VERT-SET-50‟ provides force transmission of
more than 16 kN.
The stress on the user, e.g. during a fall, is reduced by the shock absorber strap. The
actual stress to be expected is approx. 5 kN.
