WARNING
Tilting danger! Serious injury due to tilting of the product
There is a danger of the vacuum pump not attached tipping over due to changes in the center of
gravity or incorrect loading. Serious injuries due to trapping or crushing of limbs, e.g. feet, are the re-
sult.
► Do not use the vacuum pump as a climbing aid.
► Do not exert any force on the product.
► Ensure that the product has a safe centre of gravity, when mounting components.
► Wear protective equipment , e.g. protective shoes
CAUTION
Risk of injury from entrapment of body parts
After a power failure or a standstill as a result of overheating, the motor restarts automatically. A risk
exists of minor injury to fingers and hands (e.g., hematoma), from direct contact with the vacuum
flange.
► Maintain sufficient distance to the vacuum flange during all work.
► Safely disconnect motor from the mains.
► Secure the motor against re-start.
CAUTION
Scalding from hot operating fluid
Danger of burns when draining operating fluid if it comes into contact with the skin.
► Wear protective equipment.
► Use a suitable collection receptacle.
CAUTION
Danger of burns on hot surfaces
In the event of a fault, the surface temperature of the vacuum pump can increase to above 105 °C.
► Allow the vacuum pump to cool down before carrying out any work.
► Wear personal protective equipment if necessary.
CAUTION
Danger of injury from moving parts
After a power failure or a standstill as a result of overheating, the motor restarts automatically. There
is a risk of injury to fingers and hands if they enter the operating range of rotating parts.
► Safely disconnect motor from the mains.
► Secure the motor against reactivation.
► Dismantle the vacuum pump for inspection, away from the system if necessary.
Risks during disposal
WARNING
Health hazard through poisoning from toxic contaminated components or devices
Toxic process media result in contamination of devices or parts of them. During maintenance work,
there is a risk to health from contact with these poisonous substances. Illegal disposal of toxic sub-
stances causes environmental damage.
► Take suitable safety precautions and prevent health hazards or environmental pollution by toxic
process media.
► Decontaminate affected parts before carrying out maintenance work.
► Wear protective equipment.
