Installation
Mechanical assembly
Definition
Work mass = mass of effective load + mass of other moving parts
Fitting in a vertical or sloping position:
Warning
Danger of injury from shearing, squeezing and cutting
Working in the area of the slide during moving can cause injuries.
S Take actions to ensure that access to the slide unit is prevented during
moving.
Warning
Danger of injury from shearing, squeezing and pushing
When the product is mounted vertically, switching off power leads to uncon
trolled lowering of the slide and can cause injury.
S Provide safety measures to prevent the effective load from sliding down
(e.g. toothed latches or movable bolts). The SLTE has no automatic locking.
Warning
Danger of injury from shearing, squeezing and abrading
Because the spindle does not have automatic locking, holding the slide unit on
the slide itself can cause insecure hold, so the slide unit may slip during trans
portation, installation and decommissioning.
S Make sure that the slide is secured against moving when it is in the
de-energised state.
