Important Information
General Safety Information
In order to ensure the long-term functionality and thus the operating safety of windows and balcony doors
over their expected service life, the fastening of safety-relevant hardware parts is of particular importance.
MACO indicates explicitly that large sash weights are moved and accelerated during opening and closing.
This applies particularly to sliding elements. It is at the discretion and the responsibility of the respective
manufacturer (window builder), installers and dealers of windows and balcony doors, in particular of li&slide
doors, to oer corresponding movement restrictors or similar.
Incorrect assembly can lead to serious injuries. The installation must be carried out by personnel who have
been instructed according to the state of the art and recognised rules of technology.
Due to overuse or improper operation of the slide and tilt hardware, the sash may jump out of its guide rails,
fall out and thereby cause serious injuries.
Due to the high weight of the element, always pay attention to the correct securing of the element during
manufacture, transport and assembly on the construction site.
If under special circumstances (use in schools, kindergartens, etc.), it is to be expected that the sliding element
could be overstressed, this must be prevented by appropriate measures such as moving the stop buers to
reduce the opening width.
Improper handling may lead to crushing. Ensure users are aware of the risk in case of improper handling.
This applies particularly to customers with small children.
Injuries may occur in the event of improper handling, in particular if persons or parts of the body are between
the frame and the sash when closing or between the sash and the reveal or adjacent components.
