1.1 Purpose of the operating instructions
These operating instructions are part of the control unit for the S-Former E. They
facilitate the safe handling of the control unit. The instructions of component suppli-
ers and local accident prevention regulations also apply.
Only commission the control unit after you have read and understood the operating
instructions.
It is imperative that you observe the safety instructions.
Always store the operating instructions at the site of operation of the control unit.
The operating instructions must be readily accessible for all operating and mainte-
nance personnel.
1.2 Design of text functions
⚫This dot identifies the descriptions of tasks that you must perform.
–This line identifies enumerations.
This asterisk identifies cross references.
If cross references to other chapters are necessary within the text, notations are
abbreviated for reasons of clarity.
Example: OI, 2 Safety instructions
This means: Refer to operating instructions,
Chapter 2 Safety instructions
If the cross reference refers to a page, figure or position number, then this infor-
mation will be added at the end of the cross reference.
Example: Fig. 4-4, Pos. 1
This means: refer to (in chapter 4 of this manual)
position number 1 of figure 4.
(3) Numbers in parentheses refer to positions in figures.

2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
The control unit is built based on best available technology and accepted safety-
related rules.
Only use the control unit as intended and in excellent safety-related condition.
Immediately rectify faults that compromise safety.
The control unit is used to operate, control, set up and parametrise the S-Former-E
system. The control unit may only be used in connection with tapping units of the
type S-Former E with AC servomotor and it is intended for integration into a super-
ordinate machine and a superordinate control unit.
The control cabinet and the PLC are part of the control unit.
The parameters defined in Chapter 9, Technical data, Page 116 must be ad-
hered to at all times.
Intended use also includes:
–observing all instructions included in the operating instructions and the manu-
facturer's documentation of the components,
–adhering to inspection and maintenance cycles,
–assigning only qualified and authorised professionals and operators to the re-
spective tasks,
–the exclusive use of original parts.
2.2 Reasonably foreseeable misuse
A use not defined as "intended use" or a use that exceeds the intended use is con-
sidered to be an unintended use and is prohibited.
For damages resulting from an unintended use
–the owner bears the sole responsibility,
–the manufacturer assumes no liability.
