CAUTION
Burning hazard caused by hot surfaces
Some parts of the frame of electrical machines can reach temperatures in excess of 100° C.
Touching components when the machine is in operation can cause burns.
•
Do not touch frame parts while the machine is in operation or immediately after
machine operation.
•
Allow frame parts to cool off before starting any work.
CAUTION
Danger of scalding from the hot oil exiting the unit
Exiting hot oil can cause burns.
•
Before starting any work, wait until the oil has cooled down to below 30° C.
CAUTION
Chemical burns and irritations caused by chemical cleaning agents
Chemical cleaning agents can be caustic or emit dangerous fumes. If these come into
contact with skin or if you inhale the fumes, this can cause injuries, e.g. chemical burns on
the skin or respiratory passages, or skin irritation.
•
During cleaning, make sure that appropriate methods of extracting fumes are in place
and that you wear the appropriate protective gear (e.g. gloves, goggles, face masks).
•
If using chemical cleaning agents, observe the instructions and any warnings provided in
the relevant safety data sheet. Chemical cleaning agents must be suitable for use with
the machine's components, particularly where plastic components are concerned.
WARNING
Danger to life caused by falling machine parts
The machine partially comprises heavy individual components. When removing the
machine, these components can fall. This can result in death, serious injury or material
damage.
•
Secure the machine components that are being released so that they cannot fall.
WARNING
Injury as a result of suspended loads
When being dismantled and transported, the motor can cause injury as a result of its
movement.
•
Only use perfectly functioning hoisting and load suspension equipment dimensioned to
carry the motor load.
•
Pay careful attention to possible movement when the motor is released.
•
Do not stand under suspended loads or in their slewing range.
•
When placing down the motor, ensure that it cannot roll.
