 All relevant persons must be informed of the activity prior to starting any work. Observe the precauti-
onary operational measures and work instructions.
 Transport the products with suitable transportation and hoisting equipment using suitable work meth-
ods.
 Maintenance and repair work can be subject to restrictions in low or high temperatures
 (e.g. changed flow properties of the lubricant). Therefore, where possible, try to carry out maintenance
and repair work at room temperature.
 Before conducting any work, depressurize the product or superior machine into which the product will
be integrated and secure it against unauthorised activation.
 Ensure through suitable measures that movable or detached parts are immobilized during the work
and that no limbs can be caught in between if there are inadvertent movements.
 Assemble the product only outside of the operating range of moving parts, at an adequate distance
from sources of heat or cold. Be careful not to damage other units in the machine or vehicle or impair
their function during installation.
 Dry or cover wet, slippery surfaces.
 Cover hot or cold surfaces.
 Work on electrical components must be carried out by electrical specialists using voltage insulated
tools only. Observe any waiting periods for discharging, if necessary.
 Make electrical connections only according to the information in the valid wiring diagram and taking
the relevant regulations and the local connection conditions into account.
 Do not touch cables or electrical components with wet or damp hands.
 Fuses must not be bypassed. Replace fuses with same type and rating only.
 Undertake drilling at non-critical, nonload bearing parts only. It is preferable to use existing boreholes.
Be careful not to damage lines and cables when drilling.
 Identify possible abrasion points. Protect the parts accordingly.
