• Installation and disassembly work may only be performed by experienced techni-
cians.
• Installation and disassembly work must be co-ordinated by the person carrying
out the work and the owner within the scope of their responsibility.
• The danger zone must be made safe.
• The installation must be isolated in accordance with the relevant electrical regula-
tions.
• Customer-specific regulations must be observed.
• Only appropriate, tested and calibrated tools and equipment may be used.
• The electrode holder and earth must be connected to the same assembly when
welding work is carried out. If the current flow is returned via protective conduc-
tors, screening elements or anti-friction bearings, serious damage may be
caused to these or other components.
• The working area must be made safe.
• First check that the voltage and frequency specified on the data plates match the
owner’s mains power supply
• All clearance dimensions and safety distances (see approval drawing) must be
checked before putting the unit into service.
• In the course of putting the product into service, it may be necessary to render
safety devices or features inoperative when carrying out adjustments or function
checks.
• When putting the unit into service, it may be necessary to perform work in the
danger zone, therefore, it must be ensured that only appropriately trained per-
sonnel are employed for this work.
The operator must check the function of the brakes and emergency limit stop de-
vices before starting work.
All instructions and measures described in the assembly and operating instructions
with regard to safe operation and items concerning general safety and accident
prevention which have to be observed before, during and after putting into service
must be strictly complied with. Any failure to comply can lead to accidents resulting
in fatalities.
Rail-guided handling equipment must be taken out of service immediately or not put
into operation if any defects relating to operating safety and reliability are detected.
Safety devices must not be rendered inoperative or modified in contradiction to their
intended use.
Only operate rail-guided handling equipment when all protective devices and safety-
relevant equipment, e.g. movable protective devices and emergency-stop devices,
are fitted and fully functioning.
Anybody who identifies an immediate danger of personal injury must actuate the
emergency stop button without delay. This also applies in the case of damage oc-
curring to parts of the installation and equipment which makes immediate stoppage
necessary. After an ”emergency-stop”, the operator must not switch on and restart
rail-guided handling equipment until an experienced technician is satisfied that the
cause which led to actuation of this function has been rectified and that continued
operation of the installation constitutes no further hazard.
