2 Safety notes
Personal injury
Risk of personal injury due to improperly installed awning.
Please read and observe the safety notes contained in this section.
Product and property damage
Risk of damage to the product and property due to improperly installed awning.
Please read and observe the safety notes contained in this section.
2.1 Fundamental safety notes
The assembly and operating instructions must be read and observed.
Observe the corresponding accident prevention regulations.
Ensure when installing the awning that all existing electrical connections are disconnected.
Cordon off a large space around the installation site.
Check that all scaffolding and building facilities are duly safe and secure.
Observe the stipulations relating to dowels and fixing materials.
Only work with fully intact and appropriate tools.
Keep plastic sheeting, packaging material and small parts away from children – risk of
suffocation!
2.2 Qualifications
The assembly instructions are aimed at qualified technicians who have knowledge of and are
experienced in the following areas:
Safety at work, operating safety and accident prevention regulations
Use of ladders and scaffolding
Handling and transporting long, heavy components
Handling and transporting glass panes
Handling tools and machines
Fitting the fixing materials
Assessment of building fabric
Start-up and operation of the product.
If one of these qualifications is lacking, a qualified assembly firm must be brought in.
2.2.1 Working with electricity
In accordance with VDE 100 safety regulations, electrical work may only be carried out by an
authorised electrician. The installation instructions accompanying the supplied electrical
equipment must be observed.

Cassita II/Cassita II LED
2.3 Transportation
The maximum permissible axle loads and gross vehicle weight of the goods vehicles must not
be exceeded. Loading a vehicle can alter its handling characteristics.
The transported goods must be fastened properly and safely. Keep packaging dry. Softened
packaging can come loose and cause accidents. Packaging which has been opened for goods
inward purposes must be sealed again properly for further transport.
When unloaded, the awning must be carried to the place of installation the right way round so it
does not have to be turned round again in a confined space. The instructions on the packaging
about which way up the awning should be placed must be noted.
2.4 Lifting with ropes
If the awning needs to be raised to a higher level using ropes, the awning must be:
removed from the packaging;
attached to the ropes so that it cannot slide out;
lifted horizontally and evenly.
The same applies when disassembling the awning.
2.5 Mounting brackets
Before beginning the installation work, check
that the mounting brackets supplied are of the same type and of the same quantity as
ordered,
that the information provided in the order about the installation surface tallies with the actual
installation surface on site.
If any deviations should be found whatsoever which compromise the safety of the installation,
the installation work must not be carried out.
2.6 Fixing material
The awning complies with the requirements of the wind resistance class shown on the CE
conformity marking. When fitted, it only complies with these requirements provided that
the awning is fitted with the type and number of brackets recommended by the manufacturer,
and
the awning is fitted taking into account the extraction forces recommended by the
manufacturer, and
the manufacturer's recommendations for the dowels to be used have been complied with.
2.7 Ladders
Do not lean ladders against the awning or fix them to the awning. Ladders must be on a firm
base and provide adequate support. Only use ladders with adequate load-bearing capacity.
2.8 Anti-fall guards
Workers run the risk of falling when working at elevated heights. Suitable anti-fall guards must
be used.

Cassita II/Cassita II LED
2.9 Electrical connection
The awning may only be connected to an electricity supply if the specifications provided on the
tag attached to the awning and/or the specifications provided in the supplied assembly
instructions tally with the power source. At the very least, the tag and/or specifications must
specify the voltage, frequency and output values.
The installation instructions accompanying the supplied electrical components must be
observed. A permanent electrical connection may only be made to power grids fitted with an all-
pole disconnector with a minimum 3 mm wide contact gap.
2.10 Intended use
The awning is a sun protection unit and may only be used for sun protection. Failure to use the
product as intended may result in severe danger.
Alterations such as attaching items, or conversions not envisaged by weinor may only be carried
out with weinor's written consent.
Additional loads on the awning caused by hanging objects from it or by anchoring ropes may
result in damage or cause the awning to fall and are therefore not permissible.
2.11 Unsupervised operation
When working in the range of the awning’s movement, the automatic controls must be switched
off. There is a danger of trapping or the awning falling down.
Measures must also be taken to ensure that the awning cannot unintentionally be operated.
These involve powering down the unit, e.g. by disconnecting the fuses or removing the
connector coupling from the drive.
If awnings are operated by several users, a priority locking device must be installed (controlled
interruption of the power supply from outside), making it impossible to open or retract the awning
at all.
2.12 Test run
When running the awning for the first time, the working range of the awning and the area below it
must be kept clear. A visual inspection of the fixings and brackets must be performed after the
awning has been operated for the first time.
When carrying out test runs, never use automatic controls or switches if the awning is not in the
operator's line of vision (danger of awning starting unintentionally). We recommend that you
connect a test cable to the motor input.
The installation and setting instructions supplied by the manufacturer of the drive, switches and
controls must be observed.

2.13 Crushing and cutting zones
Beware of crushing and cutting zones between e.g. the drop profile and the housing, between
the folding arms, and between profiles which come into contact with each other. Beware of
clothing and/or limbs getting caught in the system and pulled in!
If the awning is installed at a height of less than 2.5 metres above areas accessed by people, the
awning may only be operated using a push button with all moving parts in sight. Electrical
controls, wireless controls with latch switches, latch switches, etc. are not permissible here.
The push button must be fitted in the line of sight of the drop profile, but far enough removed
from the moving parts, at a height of 1.5 metres (national regulations relating to disabled people
must be observed).
2.14 Handover
All operating instructions as well as the manufacturer's assembly and setting instructions for
drives, switches and controls must be handed to the user who must be instructed in the
operation of the unit. Detailed instruction on the safe and proper operation of the awning must be
given. If this is not adhered to and the awning is operated incorrectly, damage to the awning or
accidents could result.
The instructions must be kept by the customer and passed on to the new owner if ownership of
the awning passes to a third party.
After noting the on-site structural conditions and completing assembly, the installation firm is to
inform the user whether the wind resistance class given by the manufacturer was achieved when
the awning was assembled. If not, the installation firm must record the wind resistance class
actually achieved.
Automatic controls must be set to this level.
The customer must confirm to the fitter in writing that the awning is the right model and has been
installed correctly, indicating the assembly time, and that final acceptance of the awning has
taken place during which the safety issues were discussed (see Handover section).
