Preparing for use

4.1

Delivery

Checking the delivery for completeness
The drive systems are put together on an individual basis. When you take receipt of the
delivery, please check immediately whether the items delivered are in accordance with the
accompanying documents. Siemens will not accept any claims relating to items missing from
the delivery and which are submitted at a later date.
● Report any apparent transport damage to the delivery agent immediately.
● Report any apparent defects/missing components to the appropriate SIEMENS office
Archive the safety and commissioning notes provided in the scope of delivery as well as the
optionally available operating instructions so that these documents are always easily
accessible.
The rating plate optionally enclosed as a loose item with the delivery is provided to enable
the motor data to be attached on or near the machine or installation.
4.2

Transport

Risk of dropping and swinging when transported suspended
If you transport the motor suspended from cables or ropes, the cables or ropes can break,
e.g. as result of damage. Further, if not adequately attached, the motor can swing. This can
result in death, serious injury, or material damage.
• Use additional, suitable lifting equipment for transport and during installation.
• Two cables alone must be able to carry the complete load.
• Prevent the lifting equipment from sliding by appropriately securing it.
