[2] Handling of Multi-Axes Type
This is the case that this product is delivered with other actuators being combined. Multi-axes type will
be delivered in a package with an outer case fixed to a wooden base.
(1) Handling of the Packed Product
x Do not damage or drop. The package is not applied with any special treatment that enables
it to resist an impact caused by a drop or crash.
x An operator should never attempt to carry a heavy package on their own. Also, use an
appropriate way for transportation.
x When suspending the package using ropes, pass the ropes from underneath the
reinforcement frames at the bottom of the base. When lifting with a forklift, also place the
forks underneath the base.
x Do not apply an impact on the package or let it bounce when putting it down.
x Do not step or sit on the package.
x Do not put any load that may cause a deformation or breakage of the package.
(2) Handling after Unpackaged
x Appropriately fix the end of the actuators if it is overhanging so it would not widely shake
with external vibration. If the actuator assembly is transported without the ends being
secured, do not apply an impact of 0.3G or more.
x In the case that the actuator needs to be carried up with ropes or another method, be sure to
use an appropriate cushioning to avoid the robot being deformed or put on an excessive
pressure. And also, be sure to keep the robot in a stable and horizontal posture. Make a tool
to utilize the attachment holes and tapped holes on the actuator and attach it if necessary.
x Do not attempt to apply load to the actuator. Also, avoid the cables being pinched or caused
an excessive deformation.
[3] Handling of Robot Mounted on Mechanical Equipment (System)
Followings are the cautions for when transporting the actuators installed in the machinery
equipment (system) in the whole system.
x If any end of the actuator is overhanging, secure it properly to avoid significant movement
due to external vibration. If the actuator assembly is transported without the ends being
secured, do not apply an impact of 0.3G or more.
x Do not attempt to apply load to actuators when hanging the machinery equipment (system)
with tools such as a rope. Also, avoid the cables being pinched or caused an excessive
deformation.
