Components falling as a result of incorrect packing, storage and/or transport
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 parts machines, lock the rotary axes so the
they cannot accidentally rotate.
• 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 synchronous versions of motors, 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° - 15°, minimum height 50 mm) 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.
– Use only undamaged original packaging.
– Replace any defective packaging. Correct packaging offers protection against
sudden forces of attraction of the rotor in the synchronous version that can occur in
their immediate vicinity. Further, when correctly packaged you are protected against
hazardous motion when storing and moving rotors.
