6.1.1 Transporting with a lifting device

For transporting, the axial piston unit can be connected to a lifting device via an eye
bolt in the drive shaft or in the housing. Alternatively, it can also be transported with
a lifting strap.
Only use the lifting strap if you are unable to achieve the required installation
position with transport using the eye bolts.
The axial piston unit can be transported suspended from an eye bolt screwed into
the drive shaft as long as only outward (pulling) axial forces are applied.
▶ For all female threads, use a stud end from the same system of units and of the
correct size.
▶ To do this, screw an eye bolt completely into the female thread on the drive shaft.
The thread size is stated in the installation drawing.
▶ Make sure that the eye bolt can bear the total weight of the axial piston unit
plus 20%.
You can hoist the axial piston unit as shown in Fig. 9 with the eye bolt screwed into
the drive shaft.
