Storage time
Turn the shaft once every year to avoid bearing brinelling. Prolonged storage periods reduce
the useful life of the bearing grease (aging).
Open bearings
● For open bearings, e.g. 1Z, check the status of the grease when stored for longer than 12
months.
● Replace the grease if it is identified that the grease has lost its lubricating properties or is
polluted. The consistency of the grease will change if condensation is allowed to enter.
Closed bearings
● For closed bearings, replace the DE and NDE bearings after a storage time of 48 months.
The motor can be damaged if you use it or store it unprotected outdoors.
• Protect the motor against intensive solar radiation, rain, snow, ice and dust. Use a
superstructure or additional cover, for example.
• If required, contact the service center, or technically coordinate outdoors use.
