Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

CAUTION

FALLING HEAVY LOAD

oIf a motor and/or a belt drive is mounted to the actuator, simultaneously lift with one hand the actuator and with the other hand the motor and/or the belt drive.

oDo not lift the actuator only at the motor and/or the belt drive.

oRetract the piston rod during transport and handling.

oUse a suitable crane or other lifting gear to lift the actuator if this is required by the mass of the actuator.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

1

Transport the actuator in its packaging as close as possible to the installation site.

2

In case of a wooden box, unscrew the bolts on the lid of the box.

In case of a cardboard box, open the box with appropriate tools.

3

Verify the actuator for transport damage.

4

Retract the piston rod if not already done.

5

Lift up the actuator at points A and B and remove the cardboard box or wooden box. If a motor or a belt drive is mounted to the actuator, lift between points A and B while supporting the motor or the belt drive.

NOTE:

oSupport the motor when lifting the actuator at points A and B.

oDo not lift the actuator at the motor, belt drive, or piston rod only.
