Product-specific safety instructions
The following safety instructions apply for chapters
6
to 14.
WARNING
Danger from excessive pressure!
Danger to life, risk of injury or property damage!
Improperly changing the factory pressure settings can result in a pressure
increase beyond the maximum permissible pressure.
Operating the unit above the maximum permissible pressure can cause
components to burst and hydraulic fluid to escape under high pressure.
▶
Changes to the factory settings may only be made by Bosch Rexroth
specialists.
▶
In addition, a pressure relief valve is required in the hydraulic system
as back-up. If the axial piston unit is equipped with a pressure cut-off and/
or pressure controller, this is not an adequate safeguard against pressure
overload.
Danger due to suspended loads!
Danger to life, risk of injury or property damage!
Improper transportation may cause the axial piston unit to fall down and lead
to injury, e.g. crushing or fracture, or damage to the product.
▶
Make sure that the load bearing capacity of the lifting device is sufficient
to safely bear the weight of the axial piston unit.
▶
Never step or grip under suspended loads.
▶
Ensure a stable transport position.
▶
Use your personal protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles, safety gloves,
suitable working clothes, safety shoes).
▶
Use suitable lifting devices for transport.
▶
Observe the prescribed position of the lifting strap.
▶
Observe the national laws and specifications of occupational safety and health
and transport.
System/machine under pressure!
Risk of death or serious injury when working on unsecured machines/systems!
Property damage!
▶
Switch off the entire system and secure it against reactivation according to the
parameters provided by the machine/system manufacturer.
▶
Ensure that all relevant components of the hydraulic system are depressurized.
For this purpose, observe the parameters indicated by the machine/system
manufacturer.
▶
Please note that the hydraulic system might still be pressurized even after
separation from the actual pressure supply.
▶
Do not disconnect any line connections, ports and components as long
as the hydraulic system is under pressure.
