Checking The Attachment Points - Siemens SIMOTICS XP 1MB5 Operating Instructions Manual

Assembly
5.3 Lift the machine to where it will be mounted and position it
• Do not obstruct the ventilation. Do not draw in the hot discharged air directly – also from
adjacent equipment.
• Avoid exposing them to direct, intense solar radiation, rain, snow, ice, or also dust for
extended periods. Attach a covering structure or an additional cover when using or storing
outdoors.
• Do not exceed the permissible axial and radial forces.
• When clouds or layers of dust are present, strictly maintain the temperature limits according
to EN/IEC 60079-14. The maximum surface temperature is stamped on the rating plate for
dust explosion-proof motors.
Note
In order to prevent the eyebolts loosening, after mounting, tighten these or remove them.
NOTICE
Damage to the mounted parts
To avoid material damage and injury, do not damage the mounted parts.
Only lift the motor at the lifting eyes provided for the purpose.
5.3.2

Checking the attachment points

• Carefully check the attachment points at the machine, e.g. attachment eyes, lifting eyes or
ring bolts for possible damage. Replace any damaged attachment points.
• Before use, carefully check that the attachment points are correctly attached and mounted.
• Do not remove the factory-fitted attachment points. In operation, the attachment points
must remain screwed in.
• If you do remove the attachment points, then seal the holes so that they are airtight. Empty
holes can corrode; the degree of protection may then be no longer guaranteed.

WARNING
Danger caused by a falling machine
The machine may fall when lifting if the attachment points and lifting gear are damaged or
not correctly secured. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
