DANGER
Danger due to bursting of the coupling
There is a risk of fatal injury from flying fragments. Bursting of the coupling can lead to an
explosion in potentially explosive atmospheres.
•
Switch off the unit at once if any malfunctions occur.
•
Note during the maintenance work the possible causes of faults and the notes on recti-
fying them.
Proceed as follows if there is a malfunction of the coupling during operation:
1. De-energise the drive immediately.
2. Initiate the required action for repair taking into consideration the applicable safety regu-
lations.
If you cannot determine the cause or if you cannot carry out repair work with your own
means, request one of our customer service technicians.
