Do not operate water-cooled motors without cooling water

The motor must always be connected to the cooling water supply during operation.
NOTICE
Cooling water supply
If the cooling water supply fails or if the motor is operated for a short time without water cooling,
the motor will overheat. This can result in material damage or even a write-off.
Never operate the motor without the cooling water supply switched on. Monitor the
permissible water inlet temperatures.
Risk of burning from hot steam

motor, hot steam suddenly forms, which escapes under high pressure. The cooling water
system can burst. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
Do not connect the cooling water supply until the motor has cooled down.
