The magnets on the bottom side of the motion platform of the V-551 can attract magnetizable
objects such as loose screws. Objects attracted can damage the V-551.
Make sure that there are no movable, magnetizable objects within a radius of at least
10 cm around the motion range of the platform of the V-551.
NOTICE
Damage to magnetically sensitive objects!
The magnets on the bottom side of the motion platform of the V-551 can damage magnetically
sensitive objects such as magnetic data carriers and electronic devices.
Make sure that there are no magnetically sensitive objects within a radius of at least 10 cm
around the motion range of the platform of the V-551.
NOTICE
Heating up of the V-551 during operation!
The heat produced during operation of the V-551 can affect your application.
Install the V-551 so that the application is not affected by the dissipated heat.
