– clear (all-pole separation of an electrical system from live parts)
– secure against switching on again
– establish freedom from voltage
– earth and short-circuit
– cover or fence off neighbouring live parts.
22.1 Defects and remedying
Disturbance Possible causes Remedy

perature
Contact manufacturer,
install new rotor,
check bearings
Output of Multibox too low Wrong direction of rotation of rotor Change direction of rotation
Loss of pressure in lines too high Different line guidance
Throttle organs not or only partly open Check opening positions on site
Suction or pressure paths blocked Remove obstacles
Grinding sounds in operation or
start of the Multibox
Suction line installed twisted Loosen suction line and re-align.
