Preparing for use

4.1 Safety instructions for electromagnetic and permanent-magnetic
fields
Risk of death and crushing as a result of permanent magnet fields
Severe injury and material damage can result if you do not take into consideration the
safety instructions relating to permanent magnet fields.
• Observe the information in Chapter Special safety notices for handling built-in motors
Safety measures for electromagnetic and permanent-magnetic fields
● Observe the relevant nationally applicable health and safety regulations.
● Take measures, e.g. using shields, to reduce electromagnetic fields at their source.
● Keep the motor components in their individual packaging until installation.
● Mark the storage location with the warning and prohibition signs from the following tables.
● Avoid being crushed when handling the rotor core.
● Place the unpacked rotor core on a safe non-magnetic surface. Secure the rotor core with
non-magnetic devices.
● Avoid contact of the rotor core with ferromagnetic objects.
● Use tools made of non-magnetic materials. Ferromagnetic assembly tools must have low
mass.
