Handling Material

General Handling
Each bundle should be handled carefully to avoid
being damaged. Care should be taken to prevent
bending of the panel or scratching the nish. When­ever possible, the bundle should remain crated until
it is located in its place of storage. If bundles must
be opened, we recommend you recrate them before
lifting. To avoid damage please lift the bundle at its
center of gravity.

CAUTION

Improper loading and unloading of bundles and

crates may result in bodily harm and/or

material damage. Metal Sales is not responsible for

bodily injuries and/or material

damages resulting from improper

loading and unloading.

Delivery & Storage

• Always check the shipment upon delivery. Check

for damage and check material quantities against
the shipping list. Note any damaged material or
shortages at the time of delivery and notify your
supplier within 24 hours.

• Store the panels and other materials in a dry, well-

ventilated area away from traffic. Elevate one end
of the bundle, maximum 2', so that any moisture
that may have accumulated during shipping can
run off. Be sure that air will be able to circulate
freely around the bundles to avoid the build-up of
moisture. Never store materials in direct contact
with the ground.

• Some products may have a peel off plastic film

over the painted surface. This film was factory
applied to prevent damage to the finish that
may occur during manufacturing or shipping. If
this film is present, avoid exposure of the “peel­coated” parts to sunlight and remove the “peel­coat” prior to installation.

• Do not slide panels or accessories across one

another.

Safety Considerations

STUDY APPLICABLE OSHA AND OTHER STATE

AND FEDERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS BEFORE

FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

The installation of metal roofing systems is a
dangerous procedure and should be supervised by
trained, knowledgeable installers. USE EXTREME
CARE WHILE INSTALLING ROOFING PANELS.
The installer of the roofing system is responsible
for reading these instructions and determining the
safest way to install the roofing system.

Proper personal protective equipment may
include, but is not limited to:

• Hand Protection: Kevlar coated gloves to

reduce risk of abrasion and laceration while
handling product

• Eye Protection: Approved safety glasses to

protect against flying debris when handling or
cutting product

• Fall Protection: Never step on unsecured panels.

Never work on a roof without protection from
falls

Note: Other personal protective equipment may be

or a harness.
