2.5 General safety instructions
• Observe applicable accident prevention and environmental protection regulations.
• Observe thesafety regulations ofthecountry inwhich theproduct
isused/operated.
• Use Rexroth products only when they are ingood working order.
• Observe all notices onthe product.
• Do not install, operate, remove ormaintain Rexroth products ifunder theinfluence
ofalcohol, drugs ormedication that may affect your reaction time.
• Only use genuine Rexroth accessories and spare parts toensure there isno hazard
topersons from unsuitable spare parts.
• Observe thetechnical data and ambient conditions specified inthe product
documentation.
• Ifunsuitable products are installed orused inapplications that are ofrelevance
tosafety, unexpected operating conditions may occur inthe application, which
could result inpersonal injury orproperty damage. For this reason, only use
theproduct insafety-relevant applications ifthis use isexpressly indicated
and approved inthe product documentation, e.g. inexplosion protection areas
orinsafety-related parts ofacontrol system (functional safety).
• Only commission theproduct ifit has been determined that theend product
(e.g. machinery/system) inwhich theRexroth products are installed complies
with thecountry-specific provisions, safety regulations and standards for
theapplication.
• Use tools appropriate for thework being performed and wear appropriate
protective clothing toprevent punctures and cuts (e.g. when removing protective
covers, disassembly).
• There isarisk ofentanglement when operating theaxial piston unit with abare
shaft end. Check whether ornot your machine requires additional safety measures
for your application. Ifnecessary, make sure these are appropriately implemented.
• Depending onthe type ofcontrol used, electromagnetic effects can beproduced
when using solenoids. Applying adirect voltage signal (DC) tosolenoids does not
create electromagnetic interference (EMI) nor isthe solenoid affected byEMI.
Potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) exists ifthesolenoid isenergized with
amodulated direct current (e.g. PWMsignal). Appropriate testing and measures
should betaken bythe machine manufacturer toensure other components
oroperators (e.g. with pacemaker) are not affected bythis potential.
