Danger of crushing if the inverter falls down due to a prohibited tilt angle of the lifting accessories
If the maximum allowed tilt angle of 60° for the lifting accessories is exceeded, the specified load-bearing capacity of
the lifting accessories is no longer ensured. The lifting accessories used can tear. This may cause the inverter to fall
down.
• Make sure that the maximum allowed tilt angle of the lifting accessories is not exceeded.
• Observe the manufacturer's specifications for the lifting accessories.
• Keep a sufficiently safe distance from the inverter.
• Wear personal protective equipment for all work on the inverter.
