Danger!
Only transport the drive with transport equipment or hoists which are
suitable for this load ( 19). Ensure a safe fixing. Avoid shocks!
The motors attached to the gearbox are partially equipped with eyebolts.
These are exclusively determined for motor/gearbox mounting and
dismounting and must not be used for the complete geared motor!
Stop!
Observe load carrying capacity!
Standing beneath floating loads is prohibited!
5.1 Storage
If you do not install the gearbox immediately, provide for proper storage conditions.
• Generally
– Store gearboxes indoors in a dry, clean (low-dust) and sunlight-protected
environment.
– The storage location must be free from vibrations and shocks (V
eff
< 0.2 mm/s)
in order to prevent roller bearing standstill damage.
– Temperature changes with condensate formation are to be avoided.
– Do not activate ventilation unit, in order to prevent air exchange with the
ambient air.
• Up to one year:
– Store gearboxes with a ventilation unit with the vent plug on top.
– Shafts and uncoated surfaces are delivered in a protected against rust status.
Aftertreatment is required where the corrosion protection has been damaged.
– Remove the plug for motors with condensation drain holes (option)( 23).
• More than one year, up to two years:
– Apply a long-term corrosion preventive (e.g. Anticorit BW 366 from the Fuchs
company) to the shafts and uncoated surfaces before storing the motor away.
– Install gearbox in mounting position A.
– Fill gearbox up to the top vent hole / oil hole with the oil grade specified (see
nameplate). Then mount the locking screw and ventilation unit (do not activate)
again.
