6.1.2 Transport with lifting devices

For transporting, the axial piston unit can be connected to a lifting device via an
eye bolt in the drive shaft or in the housing (if present). Alternatively, it can also be
transported with a lifting strap. When selecting the means of transport, consider the
permissible total weight.
Only use the lifting strap if you are unable to achieve the required installation
position with transport using the eye bolts.
The axial piston unit can be transported suspended from an eye bolt screwed into
the drive shaft as long as only outward (pulling) axial forces are applied.
▶ For all female threads, use a stud end from the same system of units and of the
correct size.
▶ To do this, screw an eye bolt completely into the female thread on the drive shaft.
The thread size is indicated in the installation drawing.
▶ Make sure that the eye bolt can bear the total weight of the axial piston unit
plus 20%.
You can lift the axial piston unit as shown in Fig. 2 with the eye bolt screwed into the
drive shaft.

▶ For all female threads, use a stud end from the same system of units and of the
correct size.
▶ Screw the eye bolts completely into the female threads of the housing.
▶ Make sure that the eye bolts can bear the total weight of the axial piston unit plus
approx. 20%.
You can hoist the axial piston unit as shown in Fig. 3 with the eye bolts screwed into
the housing.
