Handling Precautions
1. Handling the Actuator Unit
1.1 Handling the Packed Actuator
Unless otherwise specified, the actuator of single-axis configuration is packed individually and shipped.
When transporting or handling the packed actuator, exercise due caution not to hit the package against
other object or drop the package.
If the packed actuator is to be let stand for a while, place it on a flat floor.
Do not step onto the package.
Do not place on the package any heavy article that may deform the package or have concentrated
loads.
1.2 Handling the Unpacked Actuator
When handling the unpacked actuator, hold it by the base at the bottom.
(For the name of each part of the actuator, refer to 1, "Names of the Parts.")
When transporting the actuator, be careful not to hit it against structures and objects or drop the actuator
or otherwise apply any excessive impact or force on it.
Do not transport the actuator by holding the cables or move it by pulling the cables.
Do not transport the actuator by holding the ball screw or cover.
1.3 Precautions for Tentative Set-down
When tentatively setting down the unpacked actuator, provide a pedestal, as shown below, to prevent the
cables at the rear from receiving loads.
