Removal from service

Switch the drive unit off.
Secure the drive unit to prevent it from being started up unintentionally.
Attach a warning notice to the start switch!
In case of gear units fitted with cooling coil or water oil­cooler, close the stop valves on the cooling­water
in­ and outflow pipes. To prevent freezing, drain the water from the cooling coil or the water oil­cooler.
Start the gear unit and allow it to run briefly (5 to 10 minutes) approx. every 3 weeks (during a shut­down
period no longer than 6 months).
Treat the gear unit with preservative agent, see items 7.3.1 and 7.3.2 (before a shut­down period
exceeding 6 months).

Interior preservation for longer disuse

Depending on the type of lubrication and/or shaft sealing, the following types of interior preservation can
be applied.

Gear units with splash­lubrication systems and contacting shaft seals can be filled with the correct type of
service oil up to a point just below the air filter.

7.3.1.2 Interior preservation with preservative agent

Before longer shut­down periods gear units with force-feed­lubrication systems, oil­circulation cooling
and/or non­contacting shaft seals should be filled with preservative agent and run without load.
