2.1 About this chapter
The axial piston unit has been manufactured according to the generally accepted
rules of current technology. There is, however, still a danger of personal injury
or damage to equipment if this chapter and the safety instructions in this
documentation are not complied with.
▶
Read this documentation completely and thoroughly before working with the
axial piston unit.
▶
Keep this documentation in a location where it is accessible to all users at all
times.
▶
Always include the required documentation when you pass the axial piston
unit on to third parties.
2.2 Intended use
Axial piston units are hydraulic components, meaning that in their application they
are classified neither as complete nor as incomplete machines in the sense of the
EU machine directive 2006/42/EC. A component is exclusively intended to form an
incomplete or a complete machine together with other components. The component
may only be commissioned after it has been installed in the machine/system for
which it is intended and the safety of the entire system has been established in
accordance with the machine directive.
The product is intended for the following use:
The axial piston unit is only approved as a hydraulic motor in hydrostatic drive systems.
▶
Observe the technical data, application and operating conditions and
performance limits as specified in data sheet 91615 and 91616and in the order
confirmation. Information about approved hydraulic fluids can be found in data
sheet 91615 and 91616.
The axial piston unit is only intended for professional use and not for private use.
Intended use also includes having read and understood the documentation in full,
especially the chapter 2 “Safety instructions” on page 8.

and is therefore impermissible.
Bosch Rexroth AG shall accept no liability whatsoever for damages resulting from
improper use. The user shall bear all risks arising from improper use.
The following foreseeable forms of misuse shall also be considered to be improper
(this list does not claim to be exhaustive):
•
Use outside the operating parameters approved in the data sheet or in the order
confirmation (unless customer-specific approval has been granted and confirmed in
writing)
