5.0 Transport, packaging and
storage
5.1 Safety information for
the transport
CAUTION
Significant damage to the actuator can occur if not properly
transported, unpacked and stored.
Therefore, follow the precautions below:
• Proceed carefully during the unloading of the packaged items and
during the delivery as well as during transport to its final destina-
tion. Comply with the symbols and information shown on the
packaging.
• Only remove the actuator from its packaging right before installa-
tion.
• Note storage requirements for return transport to the manufac-
turer (⮑ 5.5 Storage, page 14).
5.2 Transport inspection
The CAHB-10 linear actuator is delivered as one packaged unit in
a box or on pallets.
Check the delivery for completeness and damage due to trans-
port immediately upon receipt. Send back actuator to manufac-
turer if it has cracks in the casing caused during transportation.
Check completeness of delivery:
• A complete actuator unit.
If damage to the exterior of the actuator has occurred
during transport, do the following:
• Do not accept delivery or do so only with reservations.
• Record scope of damage on the transport documents or
on the bill of delivery of the shipping company.
• Initiate complaint.
NOTE
Report any damage as soon as it has been identified.
Damage claims can only be asserted within the transporter’s
applicable complaint period.
5.3 Return to the
manufacturer
Proceed as follows for the return transport:
1. Dismantle the actuator if necessary (
⮑
10.0 Disman-
tling, page 24).
2. Pack the actuator in its original packaging. Follow stor-
age conditions (
⮑
5.5 Storage, page 14).
3. Send to manufacturer. Contact Ewellix service to obtain
a shipment address.
5.4 Packaging
For packaging
The individual packaged pieces have been packaged appro-
priately according to the expected transport conditions.
The packaging is supposed to protect the individual compo-
nents from damage caused by the transport, corrosion and
other damage until they are ready for installation. Therefore,
do not destroy the packaging and only remove the actuator
shortly prior to the installation.
Keep packaging for possible return shipment to the manu-
facturer (
⮑
5.3 Return to the manufacturer, page 13).
If the packaging is to be disposed off, please adhere to the
following:
CAUTION
Environmental damage due to incorrect disposal!
Packaging material consists of valuable raw materials, which, in
many cases, can be recycled.
Therefore, follow the precautions below:
• Dispose of packaging material in an environmentally correct way.
• Comply with locally applicable disposal regulations.
