• Read all available documentation before assembly and commissioning. Incorrect handling of products in this
manual can result in injury and damage to persons and machinery. Strictly adhere to the technical information
on the installation requirements.
• It is vital to ensure that all system components are connected to earth ground. Electrical safety is impossible
without a low-resistance earth connection.
