If the machine is stored in dry conditions, then apply the subsequently listed anti-corrosion
measures:
● Storage up to six months:
Apply a coat of corrosion protective compound to all accessible bare metal parts such as
the exposed shaft extension, flange or machine feet.
● Storage for longer than six months:
Apply a coat of long-term anti-corrosion agent to all accessible bare parts.
● Inspect the machine regularly and if necessary, apply an additional coating of corrosion
protection.
Document all preservation measures taken so that they can be reversed before the machines
are put back into service.
