1.3 Intended use
The SIMOGEAR gearboxes described in these operating instructions have been designed for
stationary use in general engineering applications.
Unless otherwise agreed, the gearboxes have been designed for use in plants and equipment
in industrial environments.
The gearboxes have been built based on state-of-the-art technology and are shipped in an
operationally reliable condition. Changes made by users could affect this operational
reliability and are forbidden.

• Eliminate the risk to life and limb of users and other persons.
• Ensure the operational safety of the geared motor.
• Avoid disruptions and environmental damage through incorrect use.
Note the following safety information:
Shut down the geared motors and disconnect the power before you carry out any work on
them.
Make sure that the drive component cannot be turned on accidentally, for example, lock the
key-operated switch. Place a warning notice at the drive connection point which clearly
