Danger from excessively high pressure!
Risk of death or injury, or property damage!
Improperly changing the factory pressure settings can result in a pressure increase
beyond the permissible maximum pressure.
Operating the unit above the permissible maximum pressure can cause
components to burst and hydraulic fluid to escape under high pressure.
▶
Changes to the factory settings must only be made by Bosch Rexroth specialists.
▶
In addition, a pressure relief valve is required in the hydraulic system as a back-up.
If the axial piston unit is equipped with a pressure cut-off and/or a pressure
controller, this is not an adequate back-up against pressure overload.
Danger from suspended loads!
Risk of death or injury, or property damage!
Improper transportation may cause the axial piston unit to fall down and lead
to injuries e.g. crushing or broken bones or damage to the product.
▶
Make sure that the load bearing capacity of the lifting device is sufficient
to safely bear the weight of the axial piston unit.
▶
Never stand or put your hands under a suspended load.
▶
Make sure the unit remains stable during transport.
▶
Wear your personal protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles, safety gloves,
suitable working clothes, safety shoes).
▶
Use suitable lifting devices for transportation.
▶
Observe the prescribed position of the lifting strap.
▶
Observe the national laws and regulations on work and health protection
and transportation.
System/machine under pressure!
Danger to life or risk of injury, serious injuries when working on machines/systems
not secured! Risk of property damage!
▶
Switch off the entire system and secure it against reconnection according
to parameters provided by the machine/system manufacturer.
▶
Make sure that all relevant components of the hydraulic system are depressurized.
Follow the parameters given by the machine/system manufacturer.
▶
Note that the hydraulic system may still may be under pressure even after the
pressure supply itself has been disconnected.
▶
Do not disconnect any line connections, ports and components as long as the
hydraulic system is under pressure.
