1.10 Intended Use

These machines are intended for commercial installations,
unless otherwise expressly agreed. They comply with the
standards of the series EN 60034/DIN VDE 0530. Use in a
potentially explosive atmosphere is forbidden unless
expressly intended for this purpose. If in a special case -
use in non-commercial installations - increased safety
precautions are required (e.g., protection against access by
children's fingers), these conditions must be ensured when
setting up the installation. The machines are designed for
ambient temperatures between -4° F [-20 ˚C] to 104° F
[+40 ˚C] as well as for installation heights up to 3,300 ft
[1,000 m] above sea level. Any deviations found on the
nameplate must be considered. Ensure that the conditions
at the place of work correspond to all the nameplate data.
