• Observe the country-specific accident prevention and environmental protection
regulations.
• Observe the safety regulations of the country in which the product is used/operated.
• Use Rexroth products only when they are in good working order.
• Observe all notices on the product.
• Do not assemble, operate, remove or maintain Rexroth products if under the
influence of alcohol, drugs or medication that may affect your reaction time.
• Only use genuine Rexroth accessories and spare parts to ensure there is no hazard
to persons from unsuitable spare parts.
• Observe the technical data and ambient conditions specified in the product
documentation.
• If unsuitable products are installed or used in applications that are of relevance to
safety, unexpected operating conditions may occur in the application, which could
result in personal injury or property damage. For this reason, only use the product
in safety-relevant applications if this use is expressly indicated and approved in the
product documentation, e.g. in explosion protection areas or in safety-related parts
of a control system (functional safety).
• Only commission the product if it has been determined that the end product
(e.g. machinery/system) in which the Rexroth products are installed complies with
the country-specific provisions, safety regulations and standards for the application.
• Use tools appropriate for the work being performed and wear appropriate
protective clothing to prevent punctures and cuts (e.g. when removing protective
covers, disassembly).
• There is a risk of entanglement when operating the axial piston unit with a bare
shaft end. Check whether or not your machine requires additional safety measures
for your application. If necessary, make sure these are appropriately implemented.
