Measures
Once all the elements have been assembled or connected, perform the following final work:
• Check whether all devices dismantled for transportation have been reassembled.
• Check all bolt connections for tightness after installation of the gear unit has been com-
pleted.
• Check the alignment after tightening the fastening elements. The alignment must not
have changed in any way.
• Safeguard the oil drain valves against accidental opening.
• Protect the gear unit against falling objects.
• Check that the guards over rotating parts are securely fastened.
Contact (accidental or deliberate) with rotating parts is not permitted.
