Unpacking and Inspection Inspect motor assemblies for damage that may have occurred in shipment.
Any damage or suspected damage should be immediately documented. Claims
for damage due to shipment are usually made against the transportation
company. Contact Anorad immediately for further advise.
• Compare the purchase order with the packing slip.
• Check the quantity of magnet channels received matches your job

ATTENTION
Linear motors contain powerful permanent magnets which
require extreme caution during handling. When handing
multiple magnet channels do not allow the channels to come in
contact with each other. Do not disassemble the magnet
channels. The forces between channels are very powerful and
can cause bodily injury. Persons with pacemakers or Automatic
Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (AICD) should maintain a
minimum distance of 0.33 m (1 ft) from magnet assemblies.
Additionally, unless absolutely unavoidable, a minimum
distance of 1.5 m (5 ft) feet must be maintained between
magnet assemblies and other magnetic or ferrous composite
materials. Use only non-metallic instrumentation when
verifying assembly dimension prior to installation
