1) STANCHION COMPLETE (Total Weight 8Kgs) A Magnet housing with – magnet B Fixed stanchion – C Adjustable stanchion – D Clamping blocks – E Type plate – F Adjusting bolt – G - Tie-wraps 2) TUBES (Total Weight of 3m tube 4kgs) Tubes of diameter 48 mm, fitted with bayonet coupling. Tube length 3m. C. Applications of the system. The stanchion is adjustable between the hazard area zone A and zone B. This is shown in the diagram below. The distance from the centre of the track to the guardrail/barrier is adjustable between 1.25 metres and 2.00 metres in steps of 0.1 metre. Furthermore, all safety precautions and all Network Rail and standards applicable to safety on the track must be observed. If necessary, safety personnel also need to be present. The maximum permissible working temperatures of the system are -20 and +60 ̊ ̊ Celsius. D. Periodic maintenance and checking of the system Maintenance and checks / inspection: Equipment should be checked once a year by your supplier, or a competent person. Given that all components have been engineered and produced to be durable - stanchions and adjustable stanchions hot-dipped galvanized, tubes in GRP, plastic parts in UV-resistant materials - maintenance on the system is minimal. If the system is to be used for periods exceeding 1 week, we recommend that a visual check be carried out on the system at least once a week. Periodic check: Every time the RSS Lookout Protection Kit is used, the components need to be checked for any defects such as dents and/or damage to the stanchions or tubes, broken magnet housings, broken handrail clips, damage to the transport stillage etc. Check if all the components are complete, see section B. The magnet must be free of coarse soiling and steel parts. If found, they can be wiped off the magnet with a cloth use a gloved hand do NOT use unprotected exposed flesh as metal – – debris collected by the magnet may be sharp.
