5. Transporting
and
Handling
5.1 Handling the Packed Unit
Unless otherwise specified, each actuator (axis) is shipped individually.
Please take care that the shipping box is not dropped or subjected to strong impact during transport.
•
The operator should not carry heavy shipping boxes by themselves.
•
When storing or transporting on a truck the unpacked unit, it should be in a horizontal position. Setting it
in a slated or vertical position may place the motor at the bottom, allowing the mechanical oil sealed in
the pipe to leak out and cause failures.
Also, keep the unpacked unit in a horizontal position until installed.
•
Do not climb on top of the shipping box.
•
Do not place heavy objects on top of the shipping box.
5.2 Handling the Actuator After It is Unpacked
Hold the base plates when taking the actuator out of the shipping box.
•
When carrying the actuator, take care not to bump it.
•
Do not exert excessive force on any part of the actuator.
•
When unpacking the actuator, exercise due caution not to injure yourself or damage the actuator by
dropping the shipping box or actuator.
* Please refer to Section 4 above for the names of the actuator parts.
