COMMON
When storing Beier variators for any extended period of time, consider the following important points:
2-1) Storage Location
Store the unit in a clean, dry place indoors.
• Avoid storage outdoors or in places with humidity, dust, sudden temperature changes or corrosive gas.
2-2) Storage Period
(1) Storage period should be less than the "Rust-Proofing period" listed below.
(2) When the storage period exceeds the standard "rust-proofing period", special rust-proofing is necessary. Contact the
factory for details.
(3) Export models need export rust prevention. Contact the factory for details.
(4) Standard rust-proofing specification:
1 Outside rust-proofing
Before shipment, rust-proofing treatment is administered. Check the effect of rust-proofing, whenever necessary it
should be administered.
2 Inside rust-proofing
Lubrication
Grease lubricated models Oil lubricated models
Rust-proofing period 1 Year 6 Months
Storage condition
Generally to be stored inside the shop or warehouse, relatively free
of humidity, dust, extreme temperature fluctuation, corrosive gas
and similar atmosphere.
2-3) Use After Storage
(1) Oil seals will deteriorate when exposed to high temperatures and UV rays. Inspect the oil seals before operation.
Replace the oil seals after long-term storage if there is any sign of deterioration.
(2) After starting the Beier, verify that there is no abnormal sound, vibration, or heat rise. If supplied as a brakemotor,
check that the brake operates properly. If any anomaly is observed, contact our nearest agent, distributor, or sales
office.

DANGER
Do not stand directly under a unit suspended by a crane or other lifting mechanism; otherwise, injury or death may
result.
CAUTION
Exercise ample care so as not to drop the gearmotor or reducer. When a hanging bolt or hole is provided, be sure
to use it. After mounting a Beier unit to the equipment, do not hoist the entire machine using the hanging bolt or
hole; otherwise, personal injury or damage to the equipment and/or lifting device may result.
Before hoisting, refer to the rating plate, crate, outline drawing, catalog, etc. for the weight of the Beier gearmotor
or reducer. Never hoist a unit that exceeds the rating of the crane or other mechanism being used to lift it;
otherwise, personal injury or damage to the equipment and/or lifting device may result.
