Part I - Basics Introduction Congratulation for acquiring a DEGER TOPtraker. You decided for a high quality single-axis solar tracking system which can be used for all current photovoltaic solar modules. Maximum solar yield. The maximum solar yield can be achieved with the DEGER TOPtraker tracking system. By using the DEGER TOPtraker tracking system, you are truly acknowledging the power of nature: you are not only protecting our environment and nature but you are increasing your yield and thus achieving ROI sooner. During the day, the DEGERtraker aligns itself like a sunflower following the sun or the brightest source of light. Maintenance-free. Long-lived. Recyclable. The systems designed to these exacting parameters are mass-produced in an ISO 9001-certified factory under environmentally sound conditions. DEGERtraker systems are truly 99.9% recyclable. Quick installation. Pre-assembled components and detailed instructions allow an installation within less than 60 minutes. A technology to rely on. The fact that the patent-protected control system and the utility model-protected mechanical system were awarded the inventor s prize of the federal state of Baden-Württemberg in South-Germany in 2000 shows that the DEGERtraker meets the demands of both experts and investors. Since this award the control unit and the mechanical system have been advanced continuously. The design of the static certified DEGER TOPtraker is done according to DIN 1055-4 (3/2005). Scope of delivery Complete single-axis tracking system, mast, aluminium solar module carrier system to fit the respective module type. DEGERconecter control electronics for extremely economical operation, foundation plan, construction plan. ATTENTION! Read all of the instructions prior to working with the equipment and save these Assembly Instructions! A fault report (page VII-3) must be submitted in order to process complaints. Complaints cannot be processed if fault reports have not been filled out correctly!! Assembly Instruction Page I-1

Part I - Basics Safety Instructions ATTENTION! The installation of the DEGER TOPtraker may only be conducted by suitable specialists! We recommend that the system be inspected by a master electrician, or at least a person with equivalent qualification, after completion. The report of implementing (Page VI-3) is to be used for this, filled out and sent to DEGERenergie. Furthermore there is the possibility to ask DEGERenergie for a service-technician to provide onsiteassistance or to commission the system(s). Your local dealer may also provide you with a certified contractor to deliver this service. This service is delivered on request and will be invoiced separately. 1. Before assemblage of the DEGER TOPtraker read all instructions. 2. Save these instructions! 3. The installed DEGERtraker tracking system has to be protected against trespassing in its whole sphere of action by adapted measures, for example by erecting a fence. 4. During assembly of the DEGER TOPtraker or parts of the system and while the system is put into operation some risks of injury exist caused by moving parts of the tracking system. To protect injuries caused by possibly existing burrs or sharp edges we imperatively recommend you to wear gloves when mounting the steel parts of the system. 5 In the case of inspections or modifications to the DEGER TOPtraker all electrical parts need to be disconnected from line-power by an electrical separator or breaker. It is important to ensure the technical security and the absence of voltage has been verified. When voltage supply is imperative for checking the system, injuries of persons have to be prevented by appropriate actions. 6. Lightning protection and grounding have to be achieved due to state specific requirements as with all photovoltaic systems. 7 The whole sphere of action has to be free of any objects. 8. The development of the DEGER TOPtraker is based on the DIN 1055-4. Reducing the module surface the system will be able to resist higher loads than the values given in the norm. The maximum mountable module surface depends on regional conditions and regulations. To calculate the maximum mountable module surface a dimensioning-tool is available on our website. The download of the dimensioning-tool is free of charge. 9. DEGER TOPtraker can also be set up in earthquake endangered zones without limitation in respect of module area or foundations geometry. 10. In case of accumulation of snow on the module surface with more than 35 kg/m² (equivalent to about 8 cm wet snow and about 15 cm powder snow) it is necessary to broach the module surface. 11. Intended Use: A DEGER TOPtraker is designed and dimensioned to be applied with standard-photovoltaic modules and is therefore not adapted to be applied with concentrator modules, mirrors, solar thermal collectors etc. The maximum mountable module surface calculated by the dimensioning-tool must not be exceeded in any case. Permissible ambient temperature: -20 C to +55 C Sound level Distance 20m: no difference to the sound level of the surrounding measurable Distance 10m: 40 db(a) Reference value: 40 db(a) corresponds to: - tweet of a bird - usual background sound level in a house Assembly Instruction Page I-2

Part VI- Certificates Declaration of commitment, TOPtraker 40NT You have purchased a product that was subject to meticulous examination before it was delivered. Nevertheless, in the event that the DEGERtraker supplied by us does display any defects then the scope of our liability for defects shall be as follows (valid from 1 st June 2012): Liability for defects DEGERenergie GmbH grants a 3-year period for any claims for defects to be asserted. This period starts with the delivery from the factory. DEGERenergie GmbH offers to replace the defective parts free of charge where any justified claims are received in this period. In addition, DEGERenergie GmbH offers a lump sum as compensation for outlays for transportation and labor where defective parts are replaced. An up-to-date list of these one-off lump sums is available upon request. Actual costs may vary through the location and design of the systems and cannot therefore be taken into account. In all other respects the General Terms and Conditions for deliveries and services shall additionally apply in this regard: version: July 2012. For the entire steel construction DEGERenergie GmbH offers extended liability for defects of 20 years against rust-through starting with the delivery from the factory. Where a defect arises the contract partner of DEGERenergie GmbH is obligated to inform DEGERenergie GmbH immediately by sending a fault report (part of the assembly instructions) by fax to: +49 (0)7451 539 1410 or by e-mail to: service@degerenergie.com, stating the system serial number. Proof A fault report completed in full and stating the system serial number is considered as proof with any claim for defects (see Liability for defects). The defective assembly part must be sent to DEGERenergie GmbH for examination with a copy of the fault report. The type plate on the equipment must be completely legible. There must be no changes present or made to the original delivery condition and no mechanical damage (cut cables, damaged terminals, etc.). An invoice must be submitted with a copy of the fault report in order to claim the lump-sum payment. DEGERenergie GmbH will decide on its liability for defects as well as the lump-sum payment following an examination of the assembly part sent. Terms and conditions Once the spare part is received, the damaged part must be returned to DEGERenergie GmbH in its original packaging or at least in equivalent transport packaging. A return slip will be enclosed with the spare part. Where there is a defect in the contractual item and DEGERenergie GmbH is responsible for this, then DEGERenergie GmbH shall be under an obligation to repair the damaged part or replace it with a spare part, unless DEGERenergie GmbH is entitled to refuse the supplementary performance on account of statutory regulations. Any replacement of individual parts within the defect period does not give rise to an extension to the validity period neither for the liability for defects in the system nor for the replaced spare part. The contract partner of DEGERenergie GmbH must grant the latter a reasonable period for the supplementary performance. DEGERtraker that are standardized with a wind guard are only allowed to be operated in association with a suitable wind guard which brings the solar module area into the horizontal position in the event of a storm. This must be assembled in accordance with the specifications in the assembly instructions. It must be ensured that this wind guard is available and fully functional at all times. Liability Disclaimer DEGERenergie GmbH is not liable for any damage that arises as a consequence of improper operation by the contract partner, in particular if the module area is dimensioned too generously. The maximum module area that can be installed can be seen in the module layout plan sent with the order confirmation from DEGERenergie GmbH. Where permissible under the law then DEGERenergie GmbH shall not be liable for material damage and financial loss (e.g. lost buyback price) which result from a defect in the tracking system. Open area systems: Under the provision under "Liability for defects", DEGERenergie GmbH is not liable for any extra costs (e.g. use of crane, skylift, etc.) that arise from using higher masts than the standard version. Building integration: Under the provision under "Liability for defects", DEGERenergie GmbH is not liable in particular for any extra costs (e.g. use of crane, skylift, etc.) that arise from erecting masts on buildings. In addition DEGERenergie GmbH is not liable for: - defects that arise from unintended use - defects that arise from the use of third-party components, e.g. the mounting profile - defects that arise through changes to the mechanics and/or electronics - defects that arise on account of a force majeure event (lightning strikes, surges, severe storm, fire, etc.) - defects that arise through the module area being too large in derogation from the module layout plan (depending on the installation location, installation height, etc.) - defects that arise through interventions, changes or repair attempts that have been made - defects that arise through a failure to follow the information in the assembly and operating manual. In all other respects our General Terms and Conditions for deliveries and services shall additionally apply, version: July 2012. The German version of this declaration is legally binding.
