Safety Hints - IDEA VISION C3 VacuMount Instruction Manual

Safety hints

1. Do not start operating the VacuMount System until you have read and understood the
operating instruction. All safety hints and informations have to be observed.
2. The IDEA VISION VacuMount may only be operated by competent staff.
3. Cleanness and adhesion: To guarantee a proper adhesion of the suction cup it is most
important to make sure that the surfaces of both, the suction cup and the mounting sur-
face are clean. Please mount the device exclusively on smooth, even and suitable surfaces.
4. Attention: Although the holding force of the suction cups are high enough to carry the
camera, always use tension belts (safety straps) as a back up. Before using the VacuMount,
steadiness and holding force must always be tested before shooting or driving using the
maximum forces to be expected. Attention: With the construction the car is wider/higher
as normal. The horizontal and vertical areas must be kept free. Use only on secured roads/
areas. Do not use on public roads.
5. Do not switch on vacuum pump in dusty area. Clean car surface from dirt/dust. The suc-
tion cups work like a vacuum cleaner. During air suctioning, particle (e.g. sand) may dama-
ge inside parts like the pump.
6. Repair works should only be executed by the manufacturer or by well-trained staff.
7. When connecting the VacuMount to the power supply, the general VDE guidelines have
to be observed. The VacuMount needs to be protected against moisture.
8. Make sure that unauthorized personnel can not use the VacuMount
