- Disconnect the power supply before installation or dismantling work, as well as when changing a fuse
or making changes to the setup.
- Observe the valid accident prevention and safety regulations for your specific application.
- Before commissioning, check whether the nominal voltage of the device agrees with the local mains
voltage.
- Emergency Stop mechanisms must remain active in all operating modes. Unlocking the Emergency
Stop mechanism must not result in uncontrolled reactivation.
- The electrical connections must be covered.
- Protective conductor connections must be checked for perfect function after installation.
