WARNING: Any activity undertaken at a height is dangerous and may lead to accidents or serious injury. The practicing and learning of techniques for the use of appropriate safety equipment is your responsibility. Workers using Personal Protective Equipment should be trained appropriately, as per EU Directive 89/656/CEE Section II, Articles 4.8. BEFORE STARTING WORK: Before undertaking any work, the installer must organise the worksite in such a way as to ensure that the installation work is carried out in accordance with the regulatory safety conditions, notably with reference to Labour Regulations. The installer must set up the collective and/or personal protection required for this purpose. He must ensure that the equipment to be fitted complies, in terms of type and quantity, to the equipment detailed in the preliminary study. Conditions For Use: - Access to the roofs must not be permitted for the public. - Roof slopes (pitch) less than 10 or 17%. (Valid for self-supporting guardrails only) - Moderate traffic levels on the flat roof. (Access for maintenance) - Structure compatible with the additional loading (see technical data). Any installation without the maximum interval distance of 1500 mm and/or the dimensions indicated in the positioning of corners plan will lead to the declaration of a non-conformity involving the protective system MODELS OF THE GUARDRAILS CONCERNED Aluminium guardrail / Steel fastenings (Alustyle) Wall mounting on Z150 on Z250 on baseplate onto steel roof sheet Self-supporting model Aluminium guardrail / Aluminium fastenings Wall mounting on baseplate Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 2 / 10

For self-supporting guardrails, if the roof is fitted with a heavy layer of protection or a gravel surface, clear the zone from an area of 1800 mm min. No gravel or other material liable to puncture the membrane must be found below the area of the self-supporting guardrail. Installations must respect the maximum centreline distance of 1500 mm. This distance may be reduced to position the guard rail posts uniformly across the length of a roof. At the corner points, the guardrails must be place as defined in the instructions below. A non-respect for these dimensions may lead to a nonconformity for the protection. Trace out, on the floor or roof edge wall, the location of the posts, starting with the corner points and respecting the distance given below. CAUTION: For self-supporting guardrails, the posts must not rest on the sealing membrane strengthening bracket. Trace the alignment of the posts on the ground, leaving a gap of 110 mm mi. from the edge of the membrane. NO Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 3 / 10

NO! Lift the bases, ALU markings upwards, and insert the offset arm into the aluminium opening Reposition the posts above the marking point. Repeat the operation for all posts Caution: the marking information must remain visible Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 4 / 10
Fastening using Z150/250 Wall mounting Plate mounting On a concrete wall edge, drill and attach the guardrail 60 mm from the inside edge of the wall, using mechanical or chemical anchors suitable for the support On a concrete wall edge, drill and attach the guardrail 60 mm from the top of the wall, using two mechanical or chemical anchors suitable for the support On a concrete wall edge, drill and attach the guardrail 60 mm from the top of the wall, using two mechanical or chemical anchors suitable for the support On a running steel rail, attach the guardrail using four self-tapping screws On a concrete wall edge, drill and attach the guardrail 60 mm from the top of the wall, using two mechanical or chemical anchors suitable for the support On a concrete wall edge, drill and attach the guardrail 60 mm from the top of the wall, using a mechanical or chemical anchor suitable for the support GUARDRAILS ASSEMBLY CLIC! CLIC! Insert the lower rails into the posts, starting by corner angle. Repeat with the upper rail Fit the Ø30 rail sections together Insert the corner junction in rail with rivets Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 5 / 10
CLIC! Fit the Ø40 rail sections together Dealing with corners: Cross the rails, mark the overlap and cut the rail 43 mm back Drill a Ø7 hole crossing at 46 mm from the end of Ø40 rail. For an intermediate rail, drill a hole at 25 mm Insert the corner junction in rail with rivets These 4 steps are similar to corners adjustments of Ø30 intermediates rails. Only the drilling dimensions changes : to 25mm for a Ø30 rail instead of 46 mm for a Ø40 rail. Connect the next rails to corners junctions Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 6 / 10
Free-end assembly Cut the top rail 282 mm from the post. Cut the lower rail 38 mm from the post and insert the ring For an interval distance of 500mm (between rails), the rail must be recut at between 413 and 380 mm. Connect the free-end piece to the guardrail starting with the intermediate rail Insert the Ø30 mm rings in first time the intermediate side of the railing assembled. In second time, put the other one rings in the free-end pieces (opposite side to the drilling). Assemble with interrail. Drill the hand rail (page 6) and finish by riveting the elements. Final assembly with anchors Cut the rails 100 mm from the post and insert the anchors Wall mounted ending Drill the wall and fixe (anchors not included) the ending to it. Then drill and rivet the rails on the endings. Finalising the assembly (must be completed to assure a compliant assembly) Before locking the posts, the rails and the concrete base in place, make sure the protection is perfectly aligned. If necessary, adjust the heights of the posts at their bases to assure perfectly horizontal rails Self-supporting guardrails Conclude the assembly process by inserting the clips into the concrete bases. Insert the caps into all posts. Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 7 / 10
FITTING THE BASEBOARDS (FOR ROOF EDGE WALLS < 100 mm) Self-supporting guardrails and guardrails mounted on plates: Lay out the baseboards and holders, starting with an angle. Insert the offset plate into the baseboard and attach the guardrail to the baseboard, using the baseboard jumper and the screw. Pre-tighten the assembly. Guardrail fixed onto a tank Pre-tighten the 2 screws through the base of the guardrail (see above) Fit the baseboards together using the junction pieces Baseboard angles are handled by joining the angle pieces, first having cut the baseboards as they cross the angle. For self-supporting guardrails or plates, you must add a self-tapping screw to lock the position of the baseboard vertically Adjust the height of the baseboard (5 mm max.) to assure there is no direct contact with the sealing membrane. Tighten the assembly. Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 8 / 10
FAQ I need to cut a rail, how do I do this? Cut the rail as required, but ensure the cut is straight. Insert a Ø30 mm ring (MAFSGAC05/06) using a wooden spacer Use an inter-rail to connect the two pieces I need to replace an intermediate rail, how do I do this? Cut the inter-rail piece using a saw Insert the ring and the remaining part of the interrail piece into the rail, by around 60 mm Insert a Ø30 mm ring (MAFSGAC05/06) using a wooden spacer Use an inter-rail to connect the two pieces My intermediates rails will not link together. / the ring is pushed in too far, Check whether the rail actually holds a ring. If not, add, using a wooden spacer Cut the rail flat with the ring Push it further in, by approx. 60 mm, and add a new ring using a wooden spacer The rail end is not straight. Push the ring slightly into the hole a little further and cut the rail flat against the ring. Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 9 / 10
I need to cut and realise a new handrail junction, how do I do this? Cut the rail at the right dimensions, make sure that the cutting are straight. Warning : never cut of the narrow side Drill a Ø7 hole crossing at 46 mm from the end of rail Connect the new junction Insert the corner junction in rail with rivets I need to do corner junction, how do I do this? Cut the rail at the right dimensions, make sure that the cutting are straight. Drill a Ø7 hole crossing at 46 mm from the end of Ø40 rail. For an intermediate rail, drill a hole at 25 mm Insert the corner junction in rail with rivets When adjusting products on the worksite (cuts, drillings, etc.), Don t forget to remove any fragments left Notice de montage ZZNO041UK / Guardrail Aluminium SECURIGARD / April 2018 / Page 10 / 10
