OBSERVE ALL WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS BEFORE USE This is a powerful and potentially dangerous product that must be used with extreme care and adherence to general electrical safety standards. This motor is specifically intended for combat robot application. Although combat robot competition is a popular recreational hobby, combat robots are not toys and should be assembled and handled by adults with the proper technical knowledge. The person installing this motor must be thoroughly knowledgeable in the principles of electric motors and applicable safety requirements. It is strongly recommended, therefore, that the motor be installed and handled under the supervision of an electrical engineer or electrical technician. The following are specific warnings and precautions, which must be understood by the person installing, handling, and operating Magmotor's motor. These warnings do not include all adverse consequences, which could occur, but are important considerations particular to installing, handling and operating the motor in a combat robot application. Warnings: 1. Any person installing, using or handling this motor should be made aware of the warnings set forth below and should proficiently understand general electrical risks. 2. Wear safety glasses. All persons using, installing, handling, operating or observing the motor should always wear safety glasses. 3. Avoid burns and skin injuries. Use extreme caution when handling after use. This motor may become very hot after operation. Temperature on the motor surface can exceed 100°C (212°F). 3. Prevent injury by using proper fixation and fastening of the motor before and during operating the motor. During motor power up, without proper fixation or fastening, the motor body may move without control. It may cause injury to a hand, foot or other body part. 4. Avoid sparks and heat when motor is powered by battery. Operator should take special

The motor can be easily damaged if it is run above recommended voltage. 3. No load speed at 24 VDC is 4000 RPM or more. 4. Motor can generate 3890 ounce×inch of torque. 5. Locked-rotor current can be almost 500 amps. Do not lock the rotor when the motor is powered. 6. Correctly handle motor leads.
