3.7 Care after installation
If the machine will not be in operation for a longer period after it has been installed, the same
measures as mentioned above in Chapter 2.5.1 Short term storage (less than 2 months) should
be applied. Remember to rotate the shaft 10 revolutions at least every 3 months, and that self-
lubricated bearings must be filled with oil. If external vibration is present, the shaft coupling
should be opened and suitable rubber blocks should be placed under the feet of the machine.
NOTE: External vibration will damage the bearing rolling surfaces and therefore shorter the
bearing lifetime.
