Initial start-up

The MULI and JUMBO worm gear screw jacks can produce lifting, lowering, tilting and feed
movements with great force.
Attached parts can cause injury, e.g. persons may be squashed or damage may be caused
by collision with other components.
Therefore, be extremely careful during start-up.
When the linear unit accelerates or breaks, the load being transported can become loose and
flung away.
Compare the manufacturer's specifications for the supports used with the mass and
acceleration values.
It is forbidden to start up the worm gear screw jacks until it has been ensured that the
machine or system in which they have been installed complies with the regulations in the EU
Machine Directive, the harmonized standards, the European standards or corresponding
national standards.
Proper connections are essential to comply with the law on the electromagnetic
compatibility of the machines. Please therefore observe Standards EN 50 081-2 and
EN 50 082-2 to avoid electromagnetic interference.
The electrical installation must be done by a qualified EMC technician.
Follow the instructions in Chapter 4 "Assembly" for safe and proper preparation of your linear
unit for the initial start-up.
Before the initial start-up, convince yourself that the inductive and/or mechanical limit
switches work properly. First allow the assembled worm gear screw jack to move several
times along the entire travel section at such a slow speed that you can stop the movement if
there is a risk of collision.
Do not start up the system until you have ensured that there is no risk of collision
when the maximum stroke has been overrun.
