Maintenance

DANGER

Live wires.
Risk of electrical shock.

Electrical installation work must only be executed by qualified personnel.

WARNING

Machines contaminated with hazardous material.
Risk of poisoning!
Risk of infection!

If the machine is contaminated with hazardous material:

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment.

CAUTION

Hot surface.
Risk of burns!

Prior to any action requiring touching the machine, let the machine cool down first.

Shut down the machine and lock against inadvertent start up.

Turn off the operating liquid system.

Vent the connected lines to atmospheric pressure.

If necessary:
1. Drain the operating liquid
2. Disconnect all connections
