Mounting output transmission elements
● When mounting output transmission elements (coupling, gear wheel, belt pulley etc. ) use
the thread at the shaft end.
If possible, heat up the output transmission elements as required.
● Use a suitable device when withdrawing output elements.
● When mounting or withdrawing, do not apply any blows, for example with a hammer or
similar tool, to the parts to be mounted or withdrawn.
● Only transfer radial or axial forces specified in the catalog to the motor bearings via the shaft
extension.
5.3.5 Removing the rotor shipping brace
If a rotor shipping brace is attached to the machine, remove it at the last possible moment,
for example, when you are ready to push on the output or drive element.
5.3.6 Removing the rotor shipping brace from machines with vertical type of
construction
● Only remove the rotor shipping brace when the machine is in a vertical position.
Dismantling the rotor shipping brace when the machine is in a horizontal position could
damage the bearings.
● Fix the rotor in place before you turn the machine into a horizontal position.
Failure to fit the rotor shipping brace can result in damage to the bearings while the machine
is being turned onto its side.
Store the rotor locking device
Be sure to store the rotor locking device. It must be remounted for possible disassembly and
transport.
