1.3 Qualified technical personnel
Only qualified technical personnel may ins-
tall, maintain, and repair the product descri-
bed in this document.
Qualified technical personnel are persons
who have been trained, assigned, and inst-
ructed by the operator of the final product
into which the described product is
incorporated.
Such persons are familiar with the
relevant standards, rules, accident preventi-
on regulations, and assembly conditions
as a result of their training, experience,
and instruction. They are qualified to carry
out the required activities and in doing so
recognize and avoid any potential hazards.
The definition of qualified personnel and the
prohibition against employing non-qualified
personnel are laid down in DIN VDE 0105
and IEC 364.
Relevant country-specific definitions of qua-
lified technical personnel apply for countries
outside the scope of DIN VDE 0105 or IEC
364.
The core principles of these country-
specific qualification requirements for
technical personnel cannot be below those
of the two standards mentioned above.
The operator of the final product is respon-
sible for assigning tasks and areas of
responsibility and for the responsibility and
monitoring of the personnel. These areas
must be precisely specified by the operator.
The personnel must be trained and instruc-
ted if they do not possess the requisite
knowledge.
Product training can also be performed by
SKF in exchange for costs incurred.
In addition, the owner must also ensure that
the relevant personnel are fully familiar with
and have understood the contents of the
assembly/ operating instructions.
