If, after installation and maintenance work, foreign bodies are left in the drive, this can damage 
it when switching on.
Before switching on, check as to whether there are any foreign bodies in the drive. Remove 
any foreign bodies.
NOTICE
Contamination
Contamination and dirt can damage the device.
Visually inspect the equipment at least once per year. For more information, please refer to 
the section "Visual inspections".
Dust deposits inside the cabinet unit must be removed at regular intervals (or at least once 
a year) by qualified personnel in line with the relevant safety regulations. 
Note
The actual intervals at which maintenance procedures are to be performed depend on the 
environmental and operating conditions. Define maintenance intervals for the drive which 
reflect your plant-specific environmental and operating conditions and meet your availability 
requirements. When doing so, take the prescribed maintenance intervals into consideration, 
as well as the instructions for repairing and replacing installed components.
