3 Transport, storage, assembly
3.1 Transporting the gear unit
Hazard due to falling loads
• The thread of the eyebolt must be fully screwed in.
• As shown in the illustration to the right, only lift on
the eyebolts vertically to the female thread and not
more oblique than 45° to the vertical.
• Note the centre of gravity of the gear unit.
Only use the eyebolts attached to the gear unit for transport. If geared motors have an additional
eyebolt attached to the motor, this must also be used.
Transport the gear unit with care. Impacts to the free ends of shafts may cause internal damage to the
gear unit.
No additional loads must be attached to the gear unit.
Use suitable aids such as cross-beams or similar to facilitate transportation of the gear unit. Gear units
may only be transported with shackles and lifting strapschains at an angle of 90° to 70° to the
horizontal.
3.2 Storage and downtimes
3.2.1 General measures
• Store the gear unit in a dry space, relative humidity less than 60%.
• Store the gear unit at a temperature in the range of – 5 °C to + 50 °C without severe temperature
fluctuations.
• Do not expose the gear unit to direct sunlight or UV light.
• There must be no aggressive or corrosive substances (contaminated air, ozone, gases, solvents,
acids, alkalis, salts, radioactivity etc.) in the immediate vicinity.
• The gear unit must not be exposed to vibration or oscillation.
• Store the gear unit in the mounting position (see chapter 7.1 "Versions and mounting position").
Secure it against falling.
