1. Safety instructions
1.17 Transport, assembly, maintenance, malfunction, repair, shutdown, disposal
○
Assemble the product only outside the
operating range of moving parts, at an
adequate distance from sources of heat
or cold. Other units of the machine, the
vehicle must not be damaged or impaired
in their function by the installation.
○
Dry any wet, slippery surfaces or cover
appropriately.
○
Cover hot or cold surfaces appropriately.
○
Work on electrical components may be
performed only by qualified electricians.
Note possible waiting times for dis-
charge. Work on electrical components
may be performed only in a voltage-free
state and using tools suitable for electri-
cal work.
○
Establish the electrical connection only in
accordance with the valid circuit diagram
and in observance of the relevant regula-
tions and the local electrical operating
conditions.
○
Do not touch cables or electrical compo-
nents with wet or moist hands.
○
Fuses must not be bridged. Always re-
place defective fuses with fuses of the
same type.
○
Ensure proper grounding of the product.
○
Drill required holes only on non-critical,
non-load-bearing parts of the opera-
tor's machine/infrastructure. Use existing
boreholes. Do not damage lines or cables
when drilling. Modifications to SKF prod-
ucts are prohibited. This also includes
all drilling, welding, firing, and grinding
work.
○
Observe any possible wearing spots. Pro-
tect components appropriately.
○
All relevant persons must be informed of
the activity prior to the start of this work.
Precautionary operational measures,
work instructions must be observed.
○
Maintenance and repair work can be
subject to restrictions at low or high tem-
peratures (e.g., altered flow properties
of the lubricant). Maintenance and repair
work should therefore preferably be per-
formed at room temperature.
○
Prior to performing work, the product
and the machine in which the product
will be integrated must be de-energized,
depressurized, and secured against un-
authorized activation.
○
Take appropriate measures to ensure
that moving, detached parts are im-
mobilized during the work and that no
limbs can be pinched by unintended
movements.
