Mounting of the load
Handling the sliders
User Manual V1.01
The load mass must be mounted in such a way, that only the end piece of the slider is
held with the appropriate wrench (Caution: magnetical attraction). By no means should
the sensitive slider tube or the slider end piece be clamped or used as a tightening tool.
The sliders of the LinMot
damage to the slider surface can cause a drastical reduction its lifetime. The slider is a
high precision machine element consisting of a thin steel tube and Neodym magnets. As
it is designed for loads in the longitudinal direction, even just hitting an iron plate due to
the magnetical attraction can cause permanent damage to it.
Caution, the following points have to be observed when handling the slider:
Under no circumstances may a damaged slider be used further, as this can lead to
permanent and non reparable damage to the stator!
The slider of the LinMot
damage to magnetical data medium or sensitive electronic devices by merely
coming close to them.
When manipulating the sliders, hitting them against iron parts, tools, etc. must be
absolutely avoided, as this can lead to permanent damage of the slider (surface
damage, bending). Further, hitting against other ferrous objects represents a danger
of injury (Bruised fingers, etc.).
The slider of the LinMot
burns if touched.
The sliders of the LinMot
responsible for taking all the measures necessary to avoid any contact and the
relative danger of injuries to living beings (cover, protection from contact etc.).
Accumulations of dirt, in particular of ferrous chips (magnetic attraction!) or dry
running of the slider can considerably shorten the slider's lifetime.
The sliders may only be stored or transported in the special plastic case (with
cardboard inlay) or already inserted and blocked in the stator.
The sliders must be protected from dirt (particularly metal chips, etc.).
Maximal storage temperature: 70 °C
Both slider and stator must be cleaned and subsequently re-greased if they become
dirty (see chapter 7).
