Danger!
Danger of injury due to rotating or moving elements and loads!
By rotating or moving elements, body parts can be drawn in or severed or subjected to impacts.
•
Do not remain in a dangerous area during operation and secure it from access by unauthorized
persons.
•
Before working on the machine, secure it against unwanted movements. Any holding brake
present is not suitable for this!
•
Keep all covers and switch cabinet doors closed during operation and for as long as the ma-
chine has not been disconnected from the mains.
•
Always operate the motor with all of its safety features. You should also do this during short-
term testing and trial operations!
•
Motors can be started automatically via remote control! If appropriate, a corresponding warning
symbol must be applied, and protective measures must be implemented to prevent entry into
the high-risk area.
Danger!
Danger of injury due to loads!
Suspended loads can lead to personal injury or death if they fall down. Heavy loads can tilt and trap
people or severely injure them.
Failure to comply with instructions, guidelines and regulations or use of unsuitable or damaged tools
and equipment can result in serious injury and/or material damage.
•
Motors should only be lifted without any additional load from other products (e.g. connection
elements).
•
Only use permitted lifting, transport and aids with sufficient lifting capacity.
•
Never stand in the danger zone or under suspended loads.
•
Secure the product against dropping and tilting.
•
Wear safety shoes, protective clothing and a safety helmet.
•
Comply with the national and local regulations.
Danger!
Danger of injury due to incorrect control or a defect.
Improper control of motors or a defect can result in injuries and unintended and hazardous movements
of motors.
Such incorrect behavior can be triggered by:
•
Incorrect installation or mishandling of components
•
Improper or incomplete wiring
•
Defective devices (servo drive, motor, position encoder, cables, brake)
•
Incorrect control (e.g. caused by software error)
Risk due to hot surfaces
Due to the loss of power from the motor and friction in the gearbox, these components as well as their environment
can reach a temperature of more than 100°C.
The resulting heat is released to the environment via the housing and the flange.
