Magnetic fields
The rotor of the motor is equipped with permanent magnets. The magnets emit strong
magnetic fields, even when no current is supplied. If permanent magnets are exposed,
e.g. in case of removed rotor, health hazards may arise. This especially applies to per-
sons with active medical implants.
Further, exposed permanent magnets cause strong forces of attraction with magnetiz-
able materials, such as other motor components or tools. The attraction of other ob-
jects can cause severe injuries by crushing.
During operation, additional electromagnetic fields are generated.
Observe DGUV (German Social Accident Insurance) regulation 15 – "Electromagnetic
fields" for use in industrial workplaces. In other countries, the corresponding national
and local regulations and provisions must be complied with.

Transportation/storage
Observe the following notes when transporting the device:
•
Inspect the shipment for damage as soon as you receive the delivery. Inform the
shipping company immediately about any damage. If the product is damaged, it
must not be assembled, installed or started up.
•
Note that retaining straps attached to the products might be under tension. To
avoid cutting injuries, remove the retaining straps carefully from the product and
wear suitable protective clothing, if necessary.
•
The open keyway has sharp edges. Insert the key in the keyway and pull a pro-
tective tubing over the shaft.
•
If the product weights more than 40 kg, use suitable lifting equipment such as
belts.
•
Always use lifting eyebolts and lifting eyes if available.
•
Tighten lifting eyebolts.
•
The lifting eyes/bores are designed to carry only the weight of the product without
mount-on components. Mount-on units have separate suspension attachments, if
necessary. Additionally use these attachments as described in the relevant operat-
ing instructions. Do not mount any additional loads.
•
Adhere to DIN 580 for using lifting devices. The tension force vector of the slings
must not exceed a 45° angle.
•
Note the hazard from suspended loads. Do not stand under suspended loads. Se-
cure the area where suspended loads can fall down. Secure loads using suitable
holding fixtures (e.g. belts) before lifting them.
•
If necessary, use suitable, sufficiently dimensioned handling equipment.
•
Store the product in a dry, dust-free room if you do not install it right away.
•
If you store the product for a longer time (independent of packaging and ambient
conditions), observe the chapter "Startup after storage" (→
•
Ensure that the product is not subject to mechanical impact.
•
Do not transport or store the product on the fan guard.
