SAFETY

This means the manufacturer's liability excludes
all liability for personal injury, material damage or
financial losses.
2. Safety
This section lists all the generally applicable
safety instructions and technical information. In
addition, all the other sections contain specific
safety instructions and technical information. All
instructions and information must be observed
and followed during the various phases of the
lifting unit life cycle (installation, operation,
maintenance, transport, etc.)! The operator is
responsible for ensuring that all personnel follow
these instructions and guidelines.

2.1. Instructions and safety instructions

This manual uses instructions and safety in-
structions for preventing injury and damage to
property. To clearly identify them for personnel,
the instructions and safety instructions are dis-
tinguished as follows:
• Instructions appear in "bold" and refer directly to
the preceding text or section.
• Safety instructions are slightly "indented and
bold" and always start with a signal word.
• Danger
Serious or fatal injuries can occur!
• Warning
Serious injuries can occur!
• Caution
Injuries can occur!
• Caution (instruction without symbol)
Substantial property damage can occur. Irrepa-
rable damage is possible!
• Safety instructions that refer to personal injury
appear in black and are always accompanied by a
safety symbol. Danger, prohibition or instruction
symbols are used as safety symbols.
Example:
Danger symbol: General hazard
Danger symbol, for example, electrical current
Symbol for prohibited action, e.g. No entry!
Instruction symbol, for example, wear protec-
tive clothing
The safety symbols used conform to the generally
applicable directives and regulations, such as DIN
and ANSI.
• Safety instructions that only refer to materi-
al damage are printed in grey, without safety
symbols.

2.2. General safety information

• The lifting unit must be switched off before any
work is performed (installation, dismantling,
maintenance, installation). The lifting unit must
be disconnected from the electricity network and
secured against reactivation. All rotating parts
must have come to a standstill.
• The operator must report any faults or irregulari-
ties that occur to a line manager immediately.
• The end-user must shut down the equipment im-
mediately if defects occur that represent a safety
risk. These include:
• Failure of the safety and/or monitoring devices
• Damage to the collection reservoir
• Damage to electrical equipment, cables and
insulation
• Do not work alone when installing and removing
the lifting unit in sewage shafts. A second person
must always be present. Furthermore, adequate
ventilation must be provided.
• Tools and other objects should only be kept in
their designated places so that they can be found
quickly.
• When welding and/or working with electronic
devices, make sure there is no risk of explosion.
• Only use lifting gear which is legally defined as
such and officially approved.
• The lifting gear must be kept safely and must be
suitable for the conditions of use (weather, hook-
ing unit, load, etc.).
• Mobile equipment for lifting loads should be
used in such a way that it is guaranteed to remain
stable during operation.
• When using mobile equipment for lifting
non-guided loads, take action to prevent tipping,
shifting, sliding, etc.
• Measures should be taken to ensure that no
person is ever directly beneath a suspended
load. Furthermore, it is also prohibited to move
suspended loads over workplaces where people
are present.
• If mobile equipment is used for lifting loads, a
second person should be present to coordinate
the procedure if required (for example, if the
operator's field of vision is blocked).
• The load to be lifted must be transported so that
no-one will be injured if there is a power failure.
Furthermore, if such work is being carried out
outdoors, it must be cancelled if the weather
conditions worsen.
These instructions must be strictly observed.
Non-observance can result in injury or substan-
tial property damage.

2.3. Electrical work

DANGER due to electrical voltage!
Improper procedures during electrical work
may result in fatal injuries caused by electric
shock! This work may only be carried out by a
qualified electrician.
