General assembly information

These instructions enable owners to install, re-install or replace DRF 200 friction wheel travel drives themselves.
The owner must appoint a coordinator who is authorised to issue instructions before assembly work commences.
Despite detailed information, errors cannot be excluded when the installation is assembled by the customer. For
this reason, we recommend that this work be carried out by our trained specialists or by persons authorised by
us.
The wiring of DRF 200 friction wheel travel drives complies in all respects with current DIN VDE and accident pre‐
vention regulations.
Unauthorised intervention and modifications eliminate compliance with these regulations.
DANGER
Live components
Danger to life and limb.
It must be possible to switch off the power supply by means of a device to disconnect the power supply (e.g.
mains connection or isolating switch with a padlock).
DRF 200 friction wheel travel drives are supplied with power from an AC power network. The voltage and fre‐
quency of the AC power network must match the data specified on the rating plate.
