Corrective maintenance

Comply with the following when carrying out any work on the machine:
• Comply with the general safety instructions (Page 15).
• Comply with the applicable national and sector-specific regulations.
• When using the motor within the European Union, comply with the specifications laid down

Note
Before commencing removal, you should mark how each of the fastening elements has been
assigned, as well as how internal connections are arranged. This simplifies subsequent
reassembly.
Avoid damaging the windings protruding out of the stator enclosure when assembling the end
shield.
If possible, assemble the machine on and alignment plate. This ensures that the mounting feet
surfaces are all on the same plane.
Sealing measures
1. Apply the necessary liquid sealant, e.g. Fluid-D, Hylomar, to the centering edge.
2. Check the terminal box seals, and if required, replace these.
3. Repair any damage to the paint, also to screws/bolts.
4. Take the necessary measures to ensure compliance with the applicable degree of protection.
5. Do not forget the foam rubber cover in the cable entry. Completely seal the holes, and ensure
that cables do not come into contact with sharp edges.
