WARNING! Danger from suspended loads!
During transport with a lifting device, the axial piston unit can fall out of the lifting
strap and cause injuries.
▶ Use the widest possible lifting strap.
▶ Make sure that the axial piston unit is securely fixated with the lifting strap.
▶ Only guide the axial piston unit by hand for fine positioning and to avoid
oscillations.
▶ Never stand under or put you hands under suspended loads.
▶ Place the lifting strap around the axial piston unit in such a way that it neither
passes over the attachment parts (e.g. valves) nor that the axial piston unit is
hung from attachment parts (see Fig. 6).

6.2 Storing the axial piston unit
• The storage areas must be free from corrosive materials and gases.
• To prevent damage to the seals, ozone-forming equipment (e.g. mercury-vapor
lamps, high voltage equipment, electric motors, sources of electrical sparks or
electrical discharges) must not be operated in storage areas.
• The storage areas must be dry.
• Ideal storage temperature: +5°C to +20°C.
• Minimum storage temperature: -50 °C (exception: units with on-board-electronics).
• Maximum storage temperature: +60°C.
• Avoid high light irradiation (e.g. bright windows or direct fluorescent lighting).
• Do not stack axial piston units and store them shock-proof.
• Do not store the axial piston unit on the drive shaft or fitting, e.g. sensors or valves.
• For further storage conditions, see Table 7.
▶ Check the axial piston unit monthly to ensure proper storage.
