2 Safety instructions
2.1 About this chapter
The axial piston unit has been manufactured to generally accepted engineering
standards. There is still, however, a risk of personal injury or property damage if this
chapter and the safety instructions in this documentation are not observed.
▶
Read this documentation completely and thoroughly before working with the axial
piston unit.
▶
Keep it in a location where it is accessible to all users at all times.
▶
Always include the required documentation when you pass the axial piston unit
on to third parties.
2.2 Intended use
Axial piston units are hydraulic components, meaning that in their application
area they are classified neither as complete nor as partly completed machinery as
defined in the EC Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC). The component is exclusively
intended to form partly completed machinery or complete machinery together with
other components. The component should only be commissioned after it has been
installed in the machine/system for which it is intended and the safety of the entire
system has been established in accordance with the Machinery Directive.
This product is intended for the following use:
The axial piston unit is only approved as a pump for hydrostatic drives in closed
circuit.
▶
Observe the technical data, the application and operating conditions and
the performance limits as specified in data sheet 92750 and in the order
confirmation. Information about approved hydraulic fluids can be found in data
sheet 92750.
The axial piston unit is only intended for commercial use and not for private use.
Intended use includes having fully read and understood this documentation,
especially chapter 2 “Safety instructions” on page 9.
2.3 Improper use
Any use other than that described as intended use is considered improper.
Bosch Rexroth AG is not liable for damages resulting from improper use. The user is
solely responsible for any risks arising from improper use.
The following foreseeable misuses are also considered improper (this list is not
exhaustive):
• Use outside the operating parameters approved in the data sheet or in the order
confirmation (unless specifically approved by the customer)
• Use of non-approved fluids, e.g., water or polyurethane components
• Changes to factory settings by unauthorized persons
• Use of assembled parts (e.g., attachment filter, control unit, valves) other than
specified Rexroth components
• Use of the axial piston unit with assembled parts under water at a depth of
more than 10 meters without the necessary additional measures, e.g. pressure
equalization. Units with electrical components (e.g., sensors) generally cannot
come into contact with water.
