1.2 Lubricants
The quality of the oil used must meet the requirements of the operating instructions BA 7300,
which is provided as a separate item, otherwise the warranty provided by Flender will be void.
Flender urgently recommends using one of the oils listed in BA 7300, all of which have been
appropriately tested and meet the requirements.
To avoid misunderstandings, Flender points out that, by making this recommendation, Flender
is not approving the product in the sense of expressing a warranty for the quality of the
lubricants supplied by your supplier. Every lubricant manufacturer is required to guarantee the
quality of his/her products.
Information such as oil type, oil viscosity and required oil quantity can be found on the rating
plate of the gear unit and in the documentation supplied with the gear unit.
The oil quantity specied on the rating plate is an approximate value. The actual quantity of oil
required is determined by the marking on the oil dipstick or oil sight glass.
The operating instructions for the current lubricant recommendations of Flender can also be
viewed in the Internet (https://www.ender.com/lubricants).
The oils listed there undergo continuous testing. As a result, the recommended oil types might
in future be removed from the list or replaced by more advanced oils.
