IMPORTANT
: gear reducers and gearmotors supplied by Rossi S.p.A. are
"partly completed machinery" and as such they
must be
incorporated in fi nished appliances or systems and
should not be commissioned before the machinery in which the
component has been incorporated conforms to:
• Machinery directive 2006/42/EC and subsequent updatings; in particular, possible safety guards for shaft ends not
being used and for eventually accessible fan cover passages (or other) are the Buyer's responsibility;
• «Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)» 2004/108/EC and subsequent updatings.
Attention!
Observe the established legislation concerning waste treatment and recycling of exhaust material:
