Never position the welding power supply cable adjacent to, or crossing wiring harnesses of the product. The
welding current can induce interfering voltages in the wiring harnesses which may damage the electrical sys-
tem.
Remove components (e.g. exhaust pipe) from the product before performing necessary welding work.
Hydraulic installation and removal
Check the function and safe operating condition of tools and fixtures to be used. Use only the specified devi-
ces for hydraulic removal/installation procedures.
Observe the max. permissible push-on pressure specified for the equipment.
Do not attempt to bend or apply force to lines which are under pressure.
Before starting work, pay attention to the following:
• Vent the installation/removal device, the pumps and the pipework at the relevant designated points.
• For hydraulic installation, screw on the tool with the piston retracted.
• For hydraulic removal, screw on the tool with the piston extended.
For a hydraulic installation/removal device with central expansion pressure supply, screw spindle into shaft
end until correct sealing is established.
During hydraulic installation and removal, ensure that nobody is standing in the immediate vicinity of the
component to be installed/removed.
Working with batteries
Observe the safety instructions of the manufacturer when working on batteries.
Gases released from the battery are explosive. Avoid sparks and naked flames.
Do not allow battery acids to come into contact with skin or clothing.
Wear protective clothing, goggles and protective gloves.
Do not place objects on the battery.
Before connecting the cable to the battery, check the battery polarity. The battery may explode and spray
acid if the battery terminals are connected incorrectly.
Working on electrical and electronic assemblies
Always obtain the permission of the person in charge before commencing maintenance and repair work or
switching off any part of the electronic system required to do so.
De-energize the appropriate areas prior to working on assemblies.
ESD: Work on electrostatically endangered components which could be damaged by electrostatic discharge
(ESD) must always be carried out with appropriate equipment. Appropriate equipment is e.g. electrically con-
ductive work surfaces or antistatic wristbands.
Do not damage wiring during removal work. When reconnecting, ensure that cabling cannot be damaged dur-
ing operation by:
• Contact with sharp edges
• Chafing on components
• Contact with hot surfaces.
Do not secure cables on lines carrying fluids.
Do not use cable ties to secure lines.
Always use connector pliers to tighten union nuts on connectors.
Subject the device as well as the product to functional testing on completion of all repair work. The emergen-
cy stop function must be tested in particular.
