3. Before use
These installation guidelines apply exclusively to factory assembled Barry B-Net Systems. Use of
individual components outside of factory assembled Barry B-Net Systems, and/or any substitution or
modification of any components may cause serious injury or death and voids product warranty.
Alpine skiing is a potentially dangerous sport and the Barry B-Net System should be installed in conformity with
these installation guidelines. Installation (in whole or in part) made outside of these installation guidelines must
be made under the supervision of a qualified authority (see below). The efficacy of the Barry B-Net System may be
seriously compromised if any of the basic requirements are modified. Any installation of safety net systems
should be documented and conducted under the supervision of a qualified authority, who will be responsible for
the entire period that the safety nets are installed and used and who shall provide ongoing instructions for
personnel for any required adjustments to be made.
Barry recommends that Barry B-Net Systems be installed during training and with the same standard of care and
concern as would be given during a race. Risk of a skier fall may be greater during training as more runs are
performed and often new equipment and techniques are tested during training and speed may be greater.
3.1 Training
Important: Installation situations which are not described in these pages are to be resolved and corrected by a
qualified authority.
The installation of Barry B-Net Systems must only be carried out by personnel who have received and reviewed all
of the information contained in the current version of this document. The electronic version found on the Barry
website is the only valid version as product updates or changes may be done from time to time without prior
notification.
Authorized person: means a person approved or assigned by the Race Organizing Committee or other entity to
perform a specific type of duty or duties at a specific location on the race or training course.
Competent person: means one who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the
surroundings or training or race conditions which are unsafe, hazardous and/or dangerous to the skiers or
personnel in the vicinity of the event, and who has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate
them.
Qualified authority: means one, who, by possession of a recognized degree, certificate, or professional standing,
or who by extensive knowledge, training, and experience, has successfully demonstrated his/her ability to solve
or resolve problems relating to the subject matter, the work, or the project.
All installation scenarios should be documented and include a list of the personnel who participated in the
installation.
