3. Transportation and Storage
3.1. Transportation
3.1.1. Delivery to customer
The traction motor is transported fastened to a pallet. Leave the traction motor on the pallet until it is
time to place it in its working place i.e., chassis.
During short term storage, place the traction motor so that it is out of the way of any other goods
handling and on a flat, vibration-free surface.
NOTE: When the motor is delivered, the shaft is fixed and secured by a rotor locking device at the
D-end of the shaft. The rotor locking device should not be removed as long as the motor
remains in storage. Remove the rotor locking device prior to installation of the motor.

3.1.2. Inspection of delivery
Unpacking should be done carefully in order to avoid damage. The delivery should be checked against the
packing list.
NOTE: When the traction motor arrives at its destination, make sure to check the traction motor in
order to determine possible transport damage as quickly as possible. Any damage during
delivery or deviations from packing list should be entered in a report and the transport
company contacted.
If the traction motor has suffered damage during transport or installation, this must be rectified before
commissioning.
