WARNING
Danger to life if devices are packed, stored or transported incorrectly.
Risk of death, injury and/or material damage can occur if the devices are packed, stored, or
transported incorrectly.
•
Always follow the safety instructions for storage and transport.
•
Before transporting or lifting machines or machine parts, lock the rotary axes so they
cannot accidentally rotate. This is necessary, as the axes are not self locking.
•
Always correctly and carefully carry out storage, transport and lifting operations.
•
Only use suitable devices and equipment that are in perfect condition.
•
Only use lifting devices, transport equipment and suspension equipment that comply
with the appropriate regulations.
•
IATA regulations must be observed when components are transported by air.
•
Mark locations where rotors are stored with warning and prohibit signs according to the
tables in Chapter "Supplied pictograms".
•
Observe the warning instructions on the packaging.
•
Always wear safety shoes and safety gloves.
•
When working with permanent magnets, keep the following tools and aids available to
free any trapped body parts:
–
A hammer made of non-magnetizable material
–
Two pointed wedges (wedge angle approx. 10° to 15°) made of non-magnetizable
material (e.g. hard wood)
•
Take into account the maximum loads that personnel can lift and carry.
•
Transport and store built-in motors only in their packed state.
–
Replace any defective packaging. Correct packaging offers protection against
sudden forces of attraction that can occur in their immediate vicinity. Further, when
correctly packaged you are protected against hazardous motion when storing and
moving rotors.
–
Use only undamaged original packaging.
