Risk of injuries on mechanical parts!
If not observed, slight to medium injuries, especially to the hands,
can occur.
The C-arm of the system is manufactured from carbon fiber com-
posite material (CFK). In case of damage of the carbon fiber struc-
ture, for example caused by collision or by cutting or scraping
tools, individual carbon fibers or carbon fiber bundles can stand
out and on contact cause injuries to the skin or penetrate into the
tissue of the hand.
Before starting work on the C-arm, make sure that there is no
damage to the carbon fiber structures (visual inspection).
If smaller superficial damage is detectable in the painted area or
in the area of the running surface edges of the C-arm, wear wor-
king gloves and remove any projecting carbon fibers. Then care-
fully rub the damaged places flat with fine emery cloth and close
the damaged surface with paint. A spray paint in the color of the
C-arm can be used for this purpose (See Service Tool Catalogue).
Remove any carbon fibers lying in the C-arm profile with a damp
sponge or cloth.
If greater damage to the carbon fiber structure indicating
persistent or large-scale destruction of the carbon fiber structure
(e.g. crack formation or flaked off places in the running surfaces
with torn carbon fibers) can be detected, then replace the C-arm.
Electrostatic voltage!
Noncompliance can lead to property damage.
ESD protection guidelines must be observed when performing
service.
Risk of being burned by hot parts or components!
Noncompliance can lead to light or medium burns, especially of
the hands.
Once the covers have been removed, parts or components
(e.g. power components, heat sinks, solenoid brakes) become
contactable which may develop temperatures of 50° Celsius when
in operation. To prevent burns, switch the system power supply
off before contacting any parts or components and let the system
cool off for at least 5 minutes before resuming work.
