WARNING
Risk of cutting injuries when handling secondary section covers
Secondary section covers have sharp edges. When delivered, the rolled up cover bands for
secondary sections are secured using straps that are under spring tension.
If you cut through these straps, then the rolled up cover bands can suddenly unroll. You can
incur cutting injuries at your hands and eyes if you do not wear safety gloves and adequate eye
protection.
• Always wear safety gloves when handling secondary section covers
• Always wear suitable eye protection when unpacking cover bands
• Work in pairs where necessary
• Firmly hold the rolled up cover bands when cutting through the straps
• Allow the cover bands to slowly unroll
