I didn't, and as they aren't solenoids I don't need to. They are brushed DC motors with a whole lot of gear reduction and a rack and pinion output. These devices are intended to be run for a second or two at a time and will die a miserable death if held in stall, much like a RS-550 motor.

I have a few of them and will measure their current draw under some varying conditions this morning.
