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

nance, transport, etc.)! The operator is respon-
sible 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

• Caution (instruction without symbol)
Substantial damage to property can occur.

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

2.2 General safety information

• When installing or removing the product, never
work alone in rooms and sumps. A second person
must always be present.
• The motor/unit must always be switched off
before any work is performed on it (assembly, dis-
mantling, maintenance, installation). The motor
must be disconnected from the electrical system
and secured against being switched on again. 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 important parts
• Damage to electrical equipment, cables and
insulation
• Tools and other objects should only be kept in
their designated places so that safe operation is
ensured.
• Sufficient ventilation must be provided when
working in enclosed spaces.
• When welding and/or working with electronic
devices, make sure there is no risk of explosion.
• Only use lifting gear which is legally designated 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 performed
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.
