Guide rails
WARNING!
Risk of injury posed by improper transportation!
Rails may fall during transportation and cause injury to persons nearby.
• Suspend long rails at several points with a crane during transportation.
• The slewing range of long rails must be taken into consideration.
WARNING!
Risk of injury posed by escaping carriages!
Carriages may become detached from the guide rail during transportation.
• Never position guide rails with carriages at an incline during
transportation or handling.
Guide rails must be supported over their entire length during storage.
Cover strips
CAUTION!
Risk of injury posed by sharp-edged cover strips!
Cover strips may have sharp edges which can cause cutting injuries
when touched.
• Protective gloves should be worn during cover strip installation.
•
Where possible, cover strips should be stored and transported rolled up in their
original packaging.
•
Straight strips should be supported across their full length and not allowed to bend.
•
Observe the minimum bending radius of the strips (Rmin = 0.4 m).
Carriage
To prevent the loss of rolling elements, ensure that the carriages are protected from
impact loads.
•
For the protection of rolling elements, always store and transport carriages on the
guide rail or on a transport or assembly rail.
ATTENTION!
Risk of material damage posed by mounting carriages onto
the guide rail using a transport rail!
Mounting carriages onto the guide rail using a transport rail may cause
rolling elements to fall out.
•
Do not use transport rails for carriage installation.
•
Mount carriages onto the guide rail using an MRM or MBM
assembly rail, see also „9.3 Replacing defective components"
