ATTENTION: Moving parts can cause injuries. Before running the electric cylinder, make sure all
components are secure and safeguards are in place to prevent access to the path of moving
machinery.
Safeguards should prevent access to the electric cylinder until all motion has stopped.
Check that the electric cylinder is clear of foreign matter and tools. Objects hit by the moving
piston rod can become projectiles that can cause personal injury or damage to the equipment.
IMPORTANT
It is your responsibility to verify that the servo control system safely controls the electric
cylinder with regard to maximum force, acceleration, and speed.
