CAUTION
– Possible injury!
- Power down the installation area or the stepper motor control unit
.

CAUTION
– Possible damage!
The stepper motor's rotor is strongly magnetic.
Foreign substances, which
penetrate through the outgassing holes, could decrease motor function.
- Do not touch the in-vacuum or Cryo stepper motor with bare
hands!
Wear safety gloves
!
- Therefore, take care when mounting the motor: metal or soft iron
particles must not penetrate through the large outgassing holes in-
to motor or gearing.
- When handling stepper motors with outgassing holes, the envi-
ronment should be kept very clean. Penetrating foreign substanc-
es, dirt or humidity could seriously damage motor function or cause
breakdown.
Keep away metal particles from the motor! In-
vacuum or Cryo stepper motors should only be handled in a
very clean environment.

CAUTION
– Possible damage!
When flanging the motor, axial or radial force effects on the shaft (e.g.
strokes) must be avoided. Lifetime of the ball bearings will be shortened by
all kinds of load or rough treatment.
- Do not exceed the maximum axial and radial loads!
Avoid high shaft loads, e.g. shock/transient forces. Use suita-
ble couplings.
