Preparing for disassembly
Disassembly of the machine must be carried out and/or supervised by qualified personnel with
appropriate expert knowledge.
1. Contact a certified waste disposal organization in your vicinity. Clarify what is expected in
terms of the quality of dismantling the machine and provision of the components.
2. Follow the five safety rules (Page 13).
3. Disconnect all electrical connections and remove all cables.
4. Remove all liquids such as oil and cooling liquids. Collect the liquids separately and dispose
of them in a professional manner.
5. Detach the machine fixings.
6. Transport the machine to a suitable location for disassembly.
11.5
Working on machines with permanent magnets
On machines with permanent magnets, the magnetic field is guided in an assembled state in
the magnetic circuit of the machine. This means that no magnetic fields, which may be to your
health, are detectable outside the machine.
WARNING
Strong magnetic field when the machine is open
A strong magnetic field is always present inside the machine. If the housing is open, e.g.
when maintenance openings are open or when working inside the machine, magnetic objects
can be suddenly attracted by this magnetic field. This can result in death, serious injury or
material damage.
● Working in the vicinity of the rotor is only permitted in exceptional circumstances.
Unambiguous access rules must be established in accordance with the magnetic fields
prevailing in the workplace. Clearly mark the boundaries of the areas where standing is
permitted.
● People who need to use electronic or magnetic medical aids such as pacemakers, hearing
aids, implants or similar devices, are at particularly high risk. Such persons must undergo
an industrial medicine assessment.
● Observe the following measures.
