2 Safety instructions
2.1 About this chapter
The axial piston unit has been manufactured togenerally accepted engineering
standards. There isstill, however, arisk ofpersonal injury orproperty damage ifthis
chapter and the safety instructions inthis documentation are not observed.
▶ Read this documentation completely and thoroughly before working with the axial
piston unit.
▶ Keep this documentationinalocation where itisaccessible toall users atall
times.
▶ Always include the required documentation when you pass the axial piston unit
onto third parties.
2.2 Intended use
Axial piston units are hydraulic components, meaning that intheir application
area they are classified neither ascomplete nor aspartly completed machinery
asdefined inthe ECMachineryDirective2006/42/EC. The component isexclusively
intended toform partly completed machinery orcomplete machinery together with
other components. The component should only becommissioned after ithas been
installed inthe machine/system for which itisintended and the safety oftheentire
system has been established inaccordance with the Machinery Directive.
This product isintended for the following use:
The axial piston unit isonly approved asapump for hydrostatic drives inanopen
circuit.
▶ Observe the technical data, the application and operating conditions and
the performance limits asspecified inthe datasheet 92801 and inthe order
confirmation. Information about approved hydraulic fluids can befound
indatasheet 92801.
The axial piston unit isonly intended for commercial use and not for private use.
Intended use includes having fully read and understood this documentation,
especially chapter2 "Safety instructions" onpage 8.
2.3 Improper use

BoschRexrothAG isnot liable for damages resulting from improper use. The user
issolely responsible for any risks arising from improper use.
The following foreseeable forms offaulty usage are also considered improper
(thislist isnot exhaustive):
• Use outside the operating parameters approved inthe data sheet orinthe order
confirmation (unless specifically approved bythecustomer)
• Use ofnon-approved fluids, e.g.water orpolyurethane components
• Changes tofactory settings byunauthorized persons.
• Use ofassembled parts (e.g.control unit, valves) not incombination with the
specifiedRexroth components
• Use oftheaxial piston unit with assembled parts under water atadepth ofmore
than 10meters without the necessary additional measures, e.g.pressure
