Safety
Take the necessary and required safety precautions, such as safety nets and lifelines when installing from the
outside, safety goggles, gloves, hard hat, etc.
Do not step on the glass.
Falling from height
• When using ladders to go on the roof:
- Ladder in good condition?
- Set up correctly at an angle of 75°?
- Secured below and on top against moving?
- Don’t take heavy material with you on the ladder (3-point contact rule)! If possible,
use a crane to lift the material.
• If you are going on the roof, make sure there is a walking surface that is wide enough and that
supports on the beams of the lower structure.
•When using an aerial work platform: always wear and secure your harness (mandatory)! Leaving
the cage is forbidden.
• Never walk backwards on a roof, always walk forwards.
• Make sure there’s enough light in the working zone.
Low-hanging obstacles and falling loads
• Forbidden to walk under or within a radius of 1 m of a hanging or lifted load.
• Demarcate the danger zone below the zone where there is a risk of material falling down
during the installation of the veranda.
• It’s prohibited to enter these danger zones during construction.
Crushing hazard
• All working tools are in good condition, provided with a valid CE label and all necessary safety
regulations. These cannot be removed.
• People who use these working tools are educated for this purpose. Protections are always
present on all working tools. They are in good condition and need to be set correctly.
Tripping/falling
•Safety is key and it begins with order and tidiness. Clean everything immediately, leave nothing
lying around.
• Trash needs to be sorted.
• Be cautious with electric cables (danger of tripping/falling). Never walk backwards!
• Make sure there’s enough light in the working zone.

Sharp objects
• Make sure your fingers/hands are not pinched and watch out for cuts while handling veranda
parts.
• Be careful where you put your hands during the installation.
• Wearing cut-resistant gloves is mandatory.
Ergonomics
• Always lift loads correctly: bend your knees, move your feet instead of forcing your spine, lift
as close to your body as possible.
• Parts of more than 25 kg must be lifted with at least 2 persons.
Personal protective equipment
• Work clothes, safety shoes and helmet are mandatory for everyone.
• Lifeline and harness are mandatory if the edge is not secured enough or if there are no safety nets below the
veranda roof. They are also necessary when using an aerial working platform.
• Use gloves when handling veranda parts.
• Safety glasses and hearing protection are mandatory when using saws / grinders.
Always perform a Last Minute Risc Analysis!
If in doubt: STOP! Do not take unnecessary risks. Ask your supervisor if needed.

Installation
Before attaching the rail to the posts,
we advise you to recheck the measurements.
Please make sure that the rails are always parallel towards each other and perpendicular towards the casing.
This is very important because an incorrect installation causes wrinkles in the fabric or permanent damage.

Maintenance
The casing, rails and bottom rail should be cleaned with a soft sponge or cloth, tepid water and non-aggressive
cleaning products. We strongly advise against cleaning with scourers or pressure washers as they will damage the
product.
The canvas must also be cleaned with a soft sponge or brush and tepid water.
Avoid rolling up the canvas when it’s wet as this can cause mould. Let the canvas dry after cleaning or after rain.
The sunblind should not be used during freezing temperatures. The frost can freeze the canvas, which causes
damage when the canvas is rolled up or down. We advise to roll up the sunblinds and not to use them in case of
temperatures below 3° Celsius.
Failing to comply with the above mentioned maintenance and user advice voids the guarantee.
Guarantee
Skylux oers its professional customers a 5-year guarantee for all flaws that may occur during normal use and
maintenance of the delivered sunblinds. The guarantee period starts at production date and only covers the
product itself, not the product installation. This guarantee is granted under conditions that are clearly described
for the professionals.
The guarantee is void under the following circumstances:
The materials are intensively exposed to damaging atmospheric circumstances or an aggressive industrial
environment with colour change or damage as a consequence.
The dimensions of the sunblinds fall outside the mentioned sizes/prices, taking into account the specific inquiry of
the customer. In this case, liability is transferred to the latter.
The product number has been removed or made illegible.
The damages/flaws are caused by transport or storage on site.
The sunblinds are modified by a third party, whether or not installed professionally.
Normal ageing of the canvas is not a flaw. Crytal+ and Stam fabric are more sensitive to wear than other kinds
of fabric. Scratches and wrinkles in these fabrics are not unusual after two years and is therefore seen as normal
ageing.
The sunblinds are used in an unusual way and/or not maintained properly. “Unusual” means any improper or forced
use, unsafe behaviour, abuse or unauthorised modification or changes to the product or any part of it.
For this reason, we advise your to organise a correct and yearly maintenance of the sunblinds, which will guarantee
a longer product lifetime. We recommend to clean the blinds at least once a year or more in extremely polluting
environments (industrial areas, wooded areas, by the sea …).
