section 1 item 18.
Before any use of the rail:
• Visual check of the good conditions
• If a component is damaged, rail cannot be used
anymore. It must be condemned and the defective
components shall be replaced after a structure check.
This visual check consists of an analysis of the good
state of the components (rail, brackets, intermediary
parts, slider, brackets tightening, proper functioning,
marks readability).
travrail rail does not need any particular maintenance,
apart from a correct cleanliness. If dirty, clean the rail
with clear water and let it dry naturally. The rail must be
kept clean to ensure a smooth gliding of the slider. No
chemical product shall be used on the rail.

7.4. Annual inspection

It is obligatory to check carefully the rail travrail at least
once a year. The person in charge of the checking
