Product-Specific Safety Instructions - Bosch Rexroth 70 Series Instruction Manual

2.6 Product-specific safety instructions

The following safety instructions apply to chapters 6 to 14.
Danger from excessively high pressure!
Risk of death or injury, or property damage!
Improperly changing the factory pressure settings can result in a pressure increase
beyond the maximum permissible pressure.
Operating the unit above the maximum permissible pressure can cause
components to burst and hydraulic fluid to escape under high pressure.
▶ Changes to the factory settings should only be made by Bosch Rexroth
specialists.
▶ In addition, a pressure relief valve is required in the hydraulic system as a back-
up. If the axial piston unit is equipped with a pressure cut-off and/or a pressure
controller, this is not an adequate back-up against pressure overload.
Danger from suspended loads!
Risk of death or injury, or property damage!
Improper transportation may cause the axial piston unit to fall down and lead to
injury, e.g. crushing or fracture, or damage to the product.
▶ Make sure that the load bearing capacity of the lifting device is sufficient to
safely bear the weight of the axial piston unit.
▶ Never stand or put your hands under a suspended load.
▶ Make sure the unit remains stable during transport.
▶ Wear your personal protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles, safety gloves,
suitable working clothes, safety shoes).
▶ Use suitable lifting devices for transportation.
▶ Observe the prescribed position of the lifting strap.
▶ Observe the national laws and regulations on work and health protection and
transportation.
System/machine under pressure!
Risk of death or serious injury when working on unsecured machines/systems! Risk
of property damage!
▶ Switch off the entire system and secure it against reactivation according to the
parameters provided by the machine/system manufacturer.
▶ Make sure that all relevant components of the hydraulic system are
depressurized. Follow the machine/system manufacturer's specifications.
▶ Note that the hydraulic system may still may be under pressure even after the
pressure supply itself has been disconnected.
▶ Do not disconnect any line connections, ports and components as long as the
hydraulic system is under pressure.
