NOTICE
Thermal damage to temperature-sensitive parts
The motors can have surface temperatures of over +100° C. Temperature-sensitive parts in
contact with the motor or attached to the motor can be damaged. Temperature-sensitive
parts include cables and electronic components, for example.
• Never attach temperature-sensitive parts to the motor.
