Repair
Replacement Parts
We cannot accept any liability whatsoever for damage due to the use of parts made by other
manufacturers or due to unqualified repair or modification of the machine.
Repair, Electrical
The power supply must be switched off (master switch off) and secured so that it cannot be switched on
again inadvertently before starting any work on live parts.
Those parts of the machine and plant on which inspection, maintenance or repair work is to be carried
out must be isolated from the power supply, if specified. The isolated parts must first be checked to
determine that they are truly de-energized before being grounded and short-circuited. Adjacent live parts
must also be isolated.
The protective measures implemented (e.g. grounding resistance) must be tested before restarting the
machine after all assembly or repair work on electric parts.
Signal generators (limit switches) and other electrical parts on the safety mechanisms must not be
removed or bypassed. Only use original fuses or circuit overloads with the specified current rating. The
machine must be switched off immediately if a fault develops in the electrical power supply.
The electrical equipment of our machines must be checked at regular intervals and any defects found
must be remedied immediately.
If it is necessary to carry out work on live parts, a second person should be on hand to operate the
emergency OFF switch or master switch with voltage release in the event of an emergency. The working
area should be cordoned off and marked by a warning sign. Only use electrically insulated tools.
Ventilation/Hazardous Gases
It is the end users responsibility to ensure adequate ventilation is provided to exhaust any and all
noxious or hazardous gases that may be present in the working environment.
Hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems
Work on hydraulic or pneumatic equipment shall only be carried out by persons with training,
knowledge and experience of hydraulic systems. Pressure lines shall be depressurized before starting
any repair work.
General Liability
Liability for machine damage and personal injury is extinguished completely if any unauthorized
conversions or modifications are undertaken. The machine must not be modified, enlarged or converted
in any way capable of affecting safety without the manufacturer's prior approval.
