3-1. Handling Precautions
Do not hit, drop, or apply excessive force to the product.
Electromagnetic clutches and brakes use a lot of soft materials. Please note that if you
hit or drop it or apply excessive force, it may cause dents or deformation, which may
cause malfunction or insufficient torque.
Do not allow water or oils to adhere (do not apply).
Since the clutch and brake are for dry type, if oils adhere to the friction surface, the
torque will be significantly reduced and the function of the product will be impaired, so
please avoid water and oils. Also, be aware that if oil gets on the auto-gap device or the
armature hub, the auto-gap function cannot be maintained. If you use it in a place
where oil or water can easily get in, attach a protective cover.
Do not hang the product with lead wires.
Do not pull or bend the lead wire coming out of the product at an acute angle. In
particular, if you place an object on the lead wire or hang the product by holding the
lead wire, the lead wire will be crushed, damaged or broken, and you will not be able to
use it. Be sure to carry the product itself when handling it.
Be careful not to damage the clutch or brake when handling.
When installing, removing, and transporting, be careful when handling the clutch and
brake so that there is no impact or collision.
