6.1.1 Transporting by hand
Axial piston units with a weight of up to 15 kg can be transported by hand for a short
time, if necessary.
CAUTIOn! Danger from heavy loads!
Health hazard from carrying axial piston units.
▶
Use appropriate lifting, lowering and moving techniques.
▶
Wear your personal protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles, safety gloves,
suitable working clothes, safety shoes).
▶
Do not transport the axial piston unit by sensitive assembled parts (e.g. sensors
or valves).
▶
Carefully place the axial piston unit on the seating to prevent it from being
damaged.
6.1.2 Transporting with a lifting device
For transporting, the axial piston unit can be connected to a lifting device via an eye
bolt or a lifting strap.
The axial piston unit can be transported suspended from an eye bolt screwed into
the drive shaft as long as only outward (pulling) axial forces are applied.
▶
For all female threads, use a stud end from the same system of units and of the
correct size.
▶
To do this, screw an eye bolt completely into the female thread on the drive shaft.
The thread size is indicated in the installation drawing.
▶
Make sure that the eye bolt can bear the total weight of the axial piston unit
plus 20%.
You can lift the axial piston unit as shown in Fig. 4 with the eye bolt screwed into the
drive shaft.
