Safety instructions

Contents of this chapter

This chapter contains the safety instructions which you must obey when you install
and operate the drive and do maintenance on the drive. If you ignore the safety
instructions, injury, death or damage can occur.
Safety instructions are used to highlight a potential hazard when working on the
equipment. Safety instructions must be strictly followed! Non-compliance can
jeopardize the safety of personnel, the equipment and the environment. The manual
uses these warning symbols:
DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could
result in minor or moderate injury.
The safety instructions are derived from the following standards:
•
ISO 3864-2:2004 (E)
Graphical symbols – Safety colors and safety signs – Part 2: Design principles for
product safety labels
•
ANSI Z535.6
American National Standard for Product Safety Information in Product Manuals,
