contact your Lenze representative.
•
The clutches and brakes met the state of the technology at the time of delivery and are
generally safe to operate.
•
Clutches and brakes endanger persons, the clutches and brakes themselves and other
properties of the user if
– unqualified personnel works on and with clutches and brakes.
– the clutches and brakes are used for a purpose other than intended.
•
The clutches and brakes must be designed such that they perform their function and do not
cause danger for persons if they are installed correctly and used as intended in error-free
operation. This also applies to clutches and brakes integrated into a drive system.
•
Operate the clutches and brake only in a correct state.
•
Retrofittings, modifications or changes of the clutch or brake are generally forbidden. In any
case, INTORQ GmbH & Co. KG must be contacted before.
