WARNING
Risk of injury on mechanical parts!
If these guidelines are not observed, minor to moderate injury, es-
pecially to the hands, can occur.
¹
The C-arm of the system is manufactured from a carbon
fiber composite material (CFK). In the case of damage to
the carbon fiber structure, for example caused by a colli-
sion or by cutting or scraping tools, individual carbon
fibers or carbon fiber bundles can protrude and cause
injury to the skin or can penetrate the tissue of the hand.
¹
Before starting work on the C-arm, make sure that the
carbon fiber structures are undamaged (visual inspec-
tion).
¹
If smaller superficial damage is detectable in the painted
area or in the area of the running surface edges of the
C-arm, wear work gloves and remove any projecting car-
bon fibers. Then carefully rub the damaged places flat
with a fine emery cloth and seal the damaged surface
with paint. A spray paint the color of the C-arm can be
used for this purpose (see Service Tool Catalog).
¹
Remove any carbon fibers lying in the C-arm profile with
a damp sponge or cloth.
¹
If greater damage to the carbon fiber structure indicating
persistent or large-scale destruction of the carbon fiber
structure (e.g. crack formation or flaked off places in the
running surfaces with torn carbon fibers) can be
detected, replace the C-arm.
CAUTION
Electrostatic voltage!
Noncompliance can lead to property damage.
¹
ESD protection guidelines must be observed when per-
forming service.
CAUTION
Risk of being burned by hot parts or components!
Noncompliance can lead to minor or moderate burns, especially
on the hands.
¹
Removing the covers exposes parts or components (e.g.
power components, heat sinks, solenoid brakes) which
may exhibit temperatures of > 50° Celsius when in opera-
tion. To prevent burns, switch off the system power sup-
ply before contacting any parts or components and let
the system cool off for at least 5 minutes before resum-
ing work.
