NOTICE!
Gear unit damage
The oil level must be checked prior to commissioning (Section 5.2.6 "Oil level").
Insufficient lubrication causes abnormal operation and damage to gear unit components.
If the gear unit has already been filled with an initial filling prior to delivery, the vents must be fitted after
installation.

The position of the vents can be obtained from the specific dimension sheet for the order or from
Section 7.1 "Standard positions of the oil drain, vent and oil level". The sealing plug which is used for
transport must first be removed and the vent installed in the same position.
With the use of pressure vent (Option: DR) this must be unlocked for auxiliary (Option: WX) and first stage gear
units (Option: WG) prior to commissioning according to the operating and installation instructions B 1000.
The sealing plug which is used to close the vent hole for transport is marked with red paint.
The connecting flange between the industrial gear unit and the auxiliary gear unit is always equipped
with a pressure venting device. This device, as well as the pressure venting device on the industrial
gear unit (only for ATEX-certified gear units) must be unlocked as shown unterhalb.
