Warning - Heavy Components
Risk of personal injury when lifting the motor.
The weight of the motor is visible on the rating plate.
Only skilled and trained personnel should carry out dismantling.
NOTE: The lifting eye bolts are not included in the delivery as standard.
The lifting eye bolts must be dimensioned to handle the motor weight.
NOTE: Check that the lifting eye bolts are undamaged before lifting. Damaged lifting eye bolts
must be replaced before lifting.
Lifting must be performed with great care and using appropriate equipment. When lifting the motor, it is
important to lift it in a way that does not affect any critical part such as the bearings, shaft or connection
box.
There are several holes at 3, 6 and 9 o´clock seen from the D-end where the lifting eye bolts should be
attached depending on the mounting. One example is shown in Figure 5 below. Always use these holes
when lifting the motor.
