›Retain this document and ensure that it is available for all users at all times.
›Always include the necessary documentation when passing the equipment along to a third party.
2.2 Intended use
This product is a hydraulic component.
You may use the product for the following:
›Processing hydraulic fluids on mineral oil and synthetic basis in the bypass flow
This product is intended for professional use only, and not for private use.
"Intended use" also includes that you have completely read and understood this documentation, in particular chapter 2
"Safety Instructions".
2.3 Improper use
Any other use than the intended use described, is improper and inadmissible.
If unsuitable products are installed or used in safety-related applications, unintended operating states may occur in the application,
which may cause personal injury and / or property damage.
Therefore only use this product in safety-related applications if this use is explicitly specified and permitted in the product documentation,
e.g. in explosion protection areas or in safety-related parts of a control system (functional safety).
ARGO-HYTOS GMBH assumes no liability for damages resulting from improper use. The risks associated with improper use are solely
with the user.
2.4 Reasonably forseeable misuse
The delivery of the following media is forbidden:
›others than listed in chapter 5 "Technical data"
In particular:
›flammable liquids such as petrol or thinner (explosion hazard)
›foodstuffs
›oil sludge and residues
The operator alone is liable for damages resulting from improper use.
2.5 Qualification of personnel
The operations described in this document require fundamental knowledge of mechanics and hydraulics as well as knowledge of the
appropriate technical terms. In order to ensure safe use, these operations may therefore only be carried out by a correspondingly
skilled worker or an instructed person under the guidance of a skilled worker.
A skilled worker is someone who can - based on his / her technical education, knowledge and experience as well as knowledge of
the respective regulations of the jobs assigned to him / her - recognize possible dangers and ensure appropriate safety measures.
A skilled worker must observe the relevant technical regulations.

For prevention of material damage and product damage
CAUTION
Danger due to improper handling
Property damage
›The oil dewatering unit may only be used in accordance with section 2.2, “Intended use”.
Leakage or spillage of hydraulic fluid
Environmental pollution and ground water contamination.
›Use oil binding agents in order to bind leaked hydraulic oil.
Contamination due to fluids and foreign bodies
Premature wear - malfunction - risk of damage - property damage
›Ensure cleanliness during installation in order to prevent foreign bodies, such as welding beads or metal chips,
from entering the hydraulic lines, leading to premature wear or malfunction.
