1.3 Information on the
operating/assembly
instructions
You have purchased a Demag product.
If special designs or additional options are ordered or the latest technical
modifications are incorporated, the actual scope of supply may differ from the data
and information as well as from the illustrations described here. If you have any
questions, please contact the manufacturer.
DRC-DR radio receivers may only be operated by personnel who are fully familiar
with the operating/assembly instructions.
DRC D3 (3rd generation) transmitters and receivers are successors to the D2
generation of DRC units.
D3 units are to replace D2 generation radio systems wherever D3 units are
allowed to be operated without the need for any registration or fees. In this context,
see section 7 „International postal approval“.
DRC D3 generation units are not technically compatible with units from the
previous DRC D2 generation. This means that D3 generation transmitters and
receivers cannot be combined with D2 units.
These operating/assembly instructions are designed to provide the owner with
appropriate instructions for safe and correct operation and for maintenance. These
operating/assembly instructions are an integral part of the DRC-DR radio receiver.
Every individual given the task of transporting, installing, commissioning,
operating, maintaining and repairing DRC-DR radio receivers and their additional
equipment must have read and understood the items listed in the following:
• the operating/assembly instructions
• the safety regulations
• the safety instructions in the individual chapters and sections.
The operating/assembly instructions must be available to operating personnel at
all times in order to prevent operating errors and to ensure smooth and trouble-free
operation of our products. They must be kept available in the immediate vicinity at
all times.
All information included in these operating/assembly instructions has been
compiled on the basis of the relevant regulations, state-of-the-art engineering
principles and our many years of experience.
NOTE
i
These operating/assembly instructions must be read carefully before starting
any work on and with the DRC-DR receiver, especially before the unit is put
into operation for the first time. The manufacturer assumes no liability for any
damage which results from the following:
• Non-compliance with the operating/assembly instructions
• Inappropriate use of the DRC-DR radio receiver
• Operation by insufficiently trained personnel
• Unauthorised conversions
• Any technical modifications
Wearing parts are not subject to liability for defects.
We reserve the right to incorporate technical modifications within the scope of
improving the operating characteristics and further development of the DRC-DR
radio receiver.
