Lifting the Motor
Before the motor is lifted, ensure that suitable lifting equipment is available and that the personnel are familiar with lifting work. The weight of the motor is shown on the rating plate, on the dimension drawing and the packing list.While conducting any motor lifting operations, the following points must be observed:
Use only the lifting lugs or eyes intended for lifting the complete motor. Do not use any small additional lifting lugs or eyes available, as those lugs or eyes are only for service purposes.
The center of gravity of machines with the same frame may vary due to different outputs, mounting arrangements and auxiliary equipment.
Check that eyebolts or the lifting lugs integrated with the motor frame are undamaged before lifting. Damaged lifting lugs must not be used.
Lifting eyebolts must be tightened before lifting. If needed the position of the eyebolt must be adjusted with suitable washers.
