14/68 Safety instructions
Bosch Rexroth AG, A4VG Series 32, RE 92003-01-B/12.2015
Restriction of the load holding function in lifting winches.
Risk of injury or property damage.
Moving parts in high-pressure relief valves may in certain circumstances become stuck
in an undefined position due to contamination (e.g. contaminated hydraulic fluid). This
can result in restriction or loss of the load holding function in lifting winches.
▶ Check whether the application on your machine requires additional safety
measures, in order to keep the load in a safe position.
▶ If necessary, make sure that these are properly implemented.
High noise levels during operation.
Risk of hearing damage or deafness!
The noise emission of axial piston units depends on, among other factors,
rotational speed, working pressure and installation conditions. The sound pressure
level may rise above 70 dB (A) in certain application conditions.
▶ Always wear hearing protection when in the vicinity of the operating axial
piston unit.
Hot surfaces on the axial piston unit.
Risk of burns.
▶ Allow the axial piston unit to cool down sufficiently before touching it.
▶ Wear heat-resistant protective clothing, e.g., gloves.
Improper routing of cables and lines.
Risk of stumbling and property damage. Improper routing of cables and lines can
cause a risk of tripping as well as damage to equipment and components, e.g., lines
and plugs tearing.
▶ Always lay cables and lines in such a way that no one can trip over them, that
they do not become kinked or twisted, do not rub on edges and do not run
without adequate protection from sharp-edged ducts.
Contact with hydraulic fluid.
Inhalation may result in health hazards or adverse health effects, including eye
injuries, skin irritation and poisoning.
▶ Avoid contact with hydraulic fluids.
▶ When working with hydraulic fluids, strictly observe the safety instructions
provided by the lubricant manufacturer.
▶ Wear your personal protective equipment (e.g., safety goggles, safety gloves,
suitable working clothes, safety shoes).
▶ Consult a doctor immediately if hydraulic fluid gets in your eyes or bloodstream,
or is swallowed.
