1.1 General information
Read the Operating Manual carefully prior to performing any work on or putting the gear unit into
operation. Strict compliance with the instructions in this Operating Manual is essential. This
Operating Manual and all associated special documentation must be kept in the immediate
vicinity of the gear unit. If geared motors are used, compliance with the Motor Operating Manual
is also necessary.
If additional components are attached to or installed in the gear unit (e.g. motor, cooling
system, pressure sensor etc.), or components (e.g. cooling system) are supplied with the
order, the operating instructions for these components must be observed.
If you do not understand the contents of this Operating Manual or additional operating

1.3 Correct use
These gear units generate a rotational movement and are intended for use in commercial
systems. They fulfil the explosion protection requirements of Directive 94/9EU (ATEX100a) for
the category stated on the rating plate. No mixture from categories IID and IIG may be present
during operation. The ATEX approval is void in case of a hybrid mixture.
Strict compliance with the technical data on the rating plate is essential. The
documentation must be observed. Appropriate safety measures must be taken for
applications where failure of a gear unit or geared motor may result in injury.
