switchoff contactor

It looks like contactor (Schuetz), as another reply said, rather than protection (Schutz) but it's hard to see why this is for switchoff only (Abschaltung) rather than both forward, reverse (Direkt- und Reversierbetrieb) and off switching.
Peer comment(s):

disagree Edward L. Crosby III : Unlikely that it's "Schütz..." I think that's a typo.

I now think you're probably right! So "fail-safe safety cut-out" for Schutzabschaltung fehlsicher (if the words belong together): DH and KC had the right idea.

phrase might read something like: forward/reverse operation with safety cut-off

cutout relay (possibly)

a contactor (Schütz) is just a high-current relay, and in German it is quite common to 'reverse' the order of the words (relative to Engish)

In any case, for safety functions 'cutout' is more commonly used than 'cut-off'
