Unauthorized changes to the machine are not
permitted for safety reasons.
Genuine MAKO parts were especially
designed and selected for this unit. The
installation and/or use of any parts other than
genuine MAKO parts can therefore affect the
active and/or passive safety and reliability of
this unit.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage
resulting from the use of non-genuine MAKO
parts or special accessories. This applies also
to the installation and setting of safety
equipment and valves as well as to welding on
structural or pressurized parts.
In addition to the general technical operation
in accordance with the stipulations of the local
authorities, we would like to refer in particular
to the following regulations.
The system has to be installed in such a way
that it is adequately accessible.
The pressure line connected to the air outlet
of the system must be fitted stress-free.
The installed unit-specific safety valves only
assume the pressure safeguarding function of
this unit provided in currently valid standards
and regulations.
Electrical connections must meet the local
regulations. Power units must be connected
to earth and protected from short-circuits by
means of fuses.
The maximum system pressure of the unit
can be located on the nameplate of the unit.
Take the necessary precautions to ensure that
the unit is used only when in a safe and
reliable state!
Operate the machine only when all protective
equipment are in place and fully functional!
