Danger to life due to unexpected movement of the actuator! 
Unexpected movement of the actuator may lead to very 
serious injuries or to death. 
•  Make sure that the actuator can move without posing a 
 
Risk of injury due to live parts! 
Risk of death or serious injuries due to electricity and 
unexpected machine movements. In automatic mode the 
motor is always under power, even at standstill. 
•  When working on the actuator or the related subassembly, 
switch off the supply voltage for the electronic unit and 
separate anti-condensation heater (option), and take 
precautions to prevent unintentional switch-on. 
 
If you loosen the motor terminal box for whatever reason use 
an appropriate liquid sealing compound for the sealing 
surface (e. g. Elastosil E41) in addition to the rubber gasket 
before you fasten the box. 
 
Note 
Check wiring and proper terminal connections before you start 
the test procedure.
