Personnel 

The assembly, the electrical connection and all 
procedures such as repairs, part replacements, 
etc. must only be performed by trained and 
qualified technical personnel. 
 

Severe damage to property and bodily 
injury can result from improperly 
connected MQL systems. 

 
Qualified personnel are persons who have been 
trained, commissioned and instructed by the 
operator of the device. These persons are 
familiar with the relevant standards, 
specifications, accident prevention regulations 
and operating conditions as a result of their 
training, experience and instruction. They are 
authorised to perform the particular tasks 
required and are aware of and avoid dangerous 
situations in doing so. The definition of technical 
personnel and the prohibition of non-qualified 
personnel is regulated by DIN VDE 0105 or IEC 
364. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

5.3

 

Working on the MQL system 

CAUTION DANGER OF DEATH 
Repair tasks must only be performed 
on the MQL system by technical 
personnel who have first disconnected 
the power and ensured the system is 
voltage-free. 

 

CAUTION DANGER OF DEATH 
Working on MQL systems that have 
not been disconnected from the power 
supply and are not voltage-free can 
result in bodily injury. 

 

Working on pressurised systems can 
result in physical injuries. 

 
For work on the MQL system in particular, the 
system must be disconnected from electrical 
voltage and from the compressed air supply. 
 
The general rules and safety regulations that 
apply for working with machines and devices 
that use compressed air must absolutely be 
observed. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

5.4

 

Lubricants 

The applying of lubricants or substances with 
the SKF MQL system other than those approved 
by SKF is not permitted. 
 

Persons or animals must not be 
sprayed with aerosol. The aerosol 
must not come into contact with the 
eyes and under no circumstances be 
breathed in directly. 

 

It is important that the application of 
lubricants or substances containing 
lubricants can result in damages to 
one's health. 

 

The uncontrolled application of 
lubricants or substances containing 
lubricants can result in mixtures of 
lubricant and air in concentrations that 
are potentially explosive.
