Trainees should work with the circuits only under the supervision of an instructor.
•
Electrical devices (e.g. power supply units, compressors and hydraulic power units) may only be
operated in training rooms that are equipped with residual current devices (RCD).
•
Observe the specifications included in the technical data for the individual components, and in
particular all safety instructions!
•
Malfunctions which might impair safety must not be generated when the device is operated for training
purposes.
•
Wear personal safety equipment (safety glasses, safety shoes) when working on circuits.
Mechanical safety
• Switch off the power supply!
– Switch off working and control power before working on the
circuit.
– Do not reach into the setup unless it is at a complete standstill.
– Be aware of potential overtravel times for the actuators.
