Bosch Rexroth AG
2.5 General safety instructions
• Observe applicable accident prevention and environmental protection regulations.
• Observe the safety regulations of the country in which the product is used/
operated.
• Use Rexroth products only when they are in good working order.
• Observe all notices on the product.
• Do not install, operate, remove or maintain Rexroth products if under the influence
of alcohol, drugs or medication that may affect your reaction time.
• Only use genuine Rexroth accessories and spare parts to ensure there is no risk to
personnel from unsuitable spare parts.
• Observe the technical data and ambient conditions specified in the product
documentation.
• If unsuitable products are installed or used in applications that are of relevance to
safety, unexpected operating conditions may occur in the application, which could
result in personal injury or property damage. For this reason, only use the product
in safety-relevant applications if this use is expressly indicated and approved in
the product documentation, e.g., in explosion protection applications or in safety-
related parts of a control system (functional safety).
• Only commission the product if it has been determined that the end product
(e.g., machinery or system) in which the Rexroth products are installed complies
with the country-specific provisions, safety regulations and standards for the
application.
• Use tools appropriate for the work being performed and wear appropriate
protective clothing to prevent punctures and cuts (e.g. when removing protective
covers, disassembly).
• There is a risk of entanglement when operating the axial piston unit with a bare
shaft end. Check whether or not your machine requires additional safety measures
for your application. If necessary, make sure these are properly implemented.
• Depending on the type of control used, electromagnetic effects can be produced
when using solenoids. The use of the direct current (DC) on the electromagnet
does not produce any electromagnetic interference (EMI), nor is the electromagnet
influenced by EMI. Potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) exists if the
solenoid is energized with a modulated direct current (e.g. PWM signal). The
machine manufacturer should conduct appropriate tests and take appropriate
measures to ensure that other components or operators (e.g. with a pacemaker)
are not affected by this potentiality.
