4.2 Activating the automatic lubricant dispenser
Some gear unit types with standard motor (Option IEC / NEMA) have an automatic lubricant dispenser
for the roller bearings. This must be activated prior to commissioning. The cartridge case cover of the
adapter for attaching an IEC/NEMA standard motor has a red information sign for activation of the
lubricant dispenser. Opposite to the lubricant dispenser there is a grease escape hole which is closed
with a G1/4 cap screw. After activation of the lubricant dispenser, the cap screw can be removed and
replaced with the grease collection container (Part No. 28301210) which is supplied separately with
the delivery.

3. Screw the activation screw into the lubricant dispenser until the lug breaks off at the defined
fracture point.
4. Re-fit the cartridge cover and fasten it with the cylindrical screw (please see chapter 7.4 "Screw
