2.5 General safety instructions

• Observe the country-specific accident prevention and environmental protection
regulations.
• Observe the safety regulations of the country in which the product is used/operated.
• Use Rexroth products only when they are in good working order.
• Do not install, operate, disassemble or maintain Rexroth products if under
the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication that may affect your reaction time.
• Only use approved accessories and original spare parts from Rexroth in order to
exclude hazards to persons due to unsuitable spare parts.
• Observe the technical data and ambient conditions specified in the product

to safety, unexpected operating conditions may occur in the application,
which could result in personal injury or property damage. For this reason, only use
the product in safety-relevant applications if this use is expressly indicated and
approved in the product documentation, e.g. in safety-related parts of a control
system (functional safety).
• Only commission the product if it has been determined that the end product
(e.g. machinery/system) in which the Rexroth products are installed complies
with the country-specific provisions, safety regulations and standards for the
application.
• Use tools appropriate for the work being performed and wear appropriate
protective clothing to prevent punctures and cuts (e.g. when removing protective
covers, disassembly).

electrostatic discharge. Comply with the handling regulations for electronically
sensitive components, see respective data sheet (Table 1 "Required and
supplementary documentation" on page 5)
• The proposed circuits do not imply any technical liability for the system or the
machine on the part of Bosch Rexroth.
• Opening the sensor or carrying out modifications to or repairs on the sensor
is prohibited. Modifications to or repairs on the wiring can lead to dangerous
malfunctions.
