Safety Principles
Vestil manufactures several distinct models of glue-down speed bump. Each speed bump conforms to the generalized
specifications disclosed in this manual and fulfills our demanding standards for quality, safety and durability.
Vestil Manufacturing Corp. recognizes the critical importance of workplace safety. Each person who might
participate in the assembly, installation, use or maintenance of the product must read this manual and fully
understand the directions BEFORE installing the product and before performing maintenance on it. Failure to
adhere to the directions in this manual might lead to serious personal injury.
Vestil is not liable for any injury or property damage that occurs as a consequence of failing to heed the instructions
in this manual. Furthermore, failure to exercise good judgment and common sense may result in either property
damage or serious personal injury or both. Such failure is solely the fault of the person(s) who acted without good
judgment. Although Vestil diligently strives to identify foreseeable, hazardous situations, this manual cannot address
every conceivable danger. The end-user is ultimately responsible for exercising sound judgment at all times.
This manual uses SIGNAL WORDS to classify personal injury risks or situations that might lead to property damage,
as well as to draw attention to safety message(s). The reader must understand that each signal word indicates the
seriousness of the described hazard.
Identifies a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in DEATH or SERIOUS
INJURY. Use of this signal word is limited to the most extreme situations.
Identifies a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in DEATH or SERIOUS
INJURY.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in MINOR or MODERATE
injury.
Identifies practices likely to result in product/property damage, such as operation that might damage
the product.
Failure to read and understand the instructions included in this manual before installing or maintaining the
speed bump constitutes misuse of the product. Study the entire manual before you use the product for the first
time and as necessary thereafter. DO NOT attempt to resolve any problem with the product unless you are authorized
to do so and are certain
that it will be safe to use afterwards.
Improper or careless installation might result in serious personal injuries sustained by motorists and/or
bystanders.
Immediately replace any curb segment that becomes structurally compromised. DO NOT keep a damaged curb
segment in service. Follow the inspection recommendations presented below to determine whether a segment should
be replaced.
DO NOT modify the curb or the anchoring hardware. Unauthorized modifications might compromise the stability of the
curb or of the anchor points.
Thank you for purchasing an MPG-series modular curb. Our curbs are durable, high-quality
products rigorously engineered for dependability and simple installation. Although installation
and maintenance procedures are intuitively obvious, any person who might install or maintain
this product must be familiar with the instructions provided in this manual.
