1.1 Notes on the installation instructions
Theclassicationofthecontentsisbasedonthelifestagesofthelineardrive
(hereinafter referred to as the “device”).
Themanufacturerreservestherighttomakechangestothetechnicalspeci-
cations stated in these installation instructions. They may differ slightly from the
respective version of the device without the factual information being fundamen-
tallychangedorlosingvalidity.Thecurrentstatusofthetechnicalspecications
can be requested from the manufacturer at any time. Claims may not be asser-
ted in this respect. Deviations from the text and images are possible and depend
on the technical development, equipment and accessories of the device. The
manufacturer shall provide information on any differing details relating to special
versionsbymeansofthesalesdocumentation.Otherspecicationsshallremain
unaffected by this.
1.2 Standards and guidelines

3.2.2 Information on the self-locking facility
WARNING
Danger of injury from loss of self-locking facility.
Crushing and battering possible.
• Provide safety equipment
WARNING
Possible damage to the device or the customer system from loss of self-locking
facility.
• Provide safety equipment.
There is a difference between dynamic and static self-locking in the devices. Dy-
namic self-locking is activated by movement and static self-locking is activated
when the machine stops. The self locking facility on the devices is dependent on
various factors, e.g.:
• Angle of elevation of the spindle and nut
• Surfaceroughnessoftheanksofthespindleandnut
• Running speed
• Lubricant
Theself-lockingfacilitycanbenegativelyinuencedbyanumberoffactors,
e.g.:
• Shocks and vibrations
• Loads
• Heating
A theoretical self-locking spindle does not provide absolute self-locking. For this
reason, the assumption of any warranty obligations relating to self-locking is
excluded.
Self-lockingisNOTforthepurposeoffulllinganysafety-relatedcriteria.
In order to minimise any further dangers, observe the duty of care that is normal
for technical products.
