Explanation of Signal Words and the Safety Alert Symbol

According to the information given in the Project Planning Manuals, motors and
components cooled with liquids and compressed air can be partially supplied
with externally fed, pressurized media, such as compressed air, hydraulics oil,
cooling liquids and cooling lubricants. Improper handling of the connected sup‐
ply systems, supply lines or connections can cause injuries or property damage.
Risk of injury by improper handling of pressurized lines!
● Do not attempt to disconnect, open or cut pressurized lines (risk of explo‐
sion).
● Observe the respective manufacturer's operating instructions.
● Before dismounting lines, relieve pressure and empty medium.
● Use suitable protective equipment (safety goggles, safety shoes, safety
gloves, for example).
● Immediately clean up any spilled liquids from the floor due to the risk of
falling!
Environmental protection and disposal! The agents (e.g., fluids)
used to operate the product might not be environmentally friendly.
Dispose of agents harmful to the environment separately from other
waste. Observe the national regulations of your country.
The Safety Instructions in the available application documentation contain spe‐
cific signal words (DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION or NOTICE) and, where
required, a safety alert symbol (in accordance with ANSI Z535.6-2006).
The signal word is meant to draw the reader's attention to the safety instruction
and identifies the hazard severity.
The safety alert symbol (a triangle with an exclamation point), which precedes
the signal words DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION, is used to alert the
reader to personal injury hazards.
