tract and the technical data in the Annex (Page103). Deviating operating conditions are con-
sidered improper use. The user or operator of the machine or plant is solely liable for any
resulting damage.

described in these operating instructions. This also applies to the guards designed to
prevent accidental contact.
• Only ever use original replacement parts.

ment parts may possibly change the design characteristics of the gear unit and thus im-
pair its active or passive safety.
Flender will accept no liability or warranty whatsoever for damage occurring as a result of
