Transport and storage
Comply with the following when carrying out any work on the machine:
• Comply with the general safety instructions (Page 15).
• Comply with the applicable national and sector-specific regulations.
• When using the motor within the European Union, comply with the specifications laid down
in EN 50110‑1 regarding safe operation of electrical equipment.
Danger when incorrectly transporting the motor suspended from cables or ropes
If you transport the motor suspended from cables or ropes, the cables or ropes can break, e.g.
as a result of damage. Further, if not adequately attached, the motor can swing. This can result
in death, serious injury, or material damage.
• Use additional, suitable lifting equipment for transport and during installation.
• Two cables alone must be able to carry the complete load.
• Prevent the lifting equipment from sliding by appropriately securing it.
• When using 2-cable lifting equipment, ensure that the maximum angle of inclination is ≤45°
according to ISO 3266 (DIN 580).
• Align the eyebolts so that the cables used for lifting are aligned with the planes of the
eyebolts.
Danger when incorrectly lifting and transporting
The motor can slide or topple over if it is not correctly lifted or transported. This can result in
death, serious injury or material damage.
• Use all the lifting eyes on the machine.
• When using the lifting eyes on the machine, do not attach any additional loads or weight. The
lifting eyes are only designed for the weight of the machine itself.
• Any eyes that are screwed in must be tightly fastened.
• Eyebolts must be screwed in right up to their supporting surface.
• Comply with the permissible eyebolt loads.
• When necessary, use suitably dimensioned lifting equipment, for example hoisting slings
(EN1492-1) and webbing load restraints (EN12195-2).
• Never remain under or in the immediate vicinity of the machine when it is lifted.

and raised position.
