Handling Precautions
1. Handling the Actuator by Itself
1.1 Handling the Packed Actuator
Unless otherwise specified, the actuator of single-axis configuration is packed individually.
When transporting or handling the packed actuator, exercise due caution not to hit the package against
other object or drop the package.
x If the package is heavy, the operator must not attempt to carry the package alone.
x When setting down the package, place it horizontally.
x Do not step onto the package.
x Do not place on the package any heavy object or other article with an area of concentrated mass that
may cause the package to deform.
x Cable tracks and guide rails are vulnerable to damage and deformation. Accordingly, exercise due
caution when handling the packed actuator so as not to apply excessive forces to the cable tracks and
guides rails.
1.2 Handling the Unpacked Actuator
When handling the unpacked actuator, hold it by the base.
x When transporting the actuator, be careful not to bump it or otherwise apply impact on it. In particular,
pay attention to the end brackets, end covers and guide rails.
x Do not apply excessive forces to various parts of the actuator. In particular, pay attention to the screw
covers and cables.
