The gear unit must be protected against falling objects.
Protective devices for rotating parts must be checked for correct seating. Contact with rotating parts
is not permitted.
A potential equalisation in accordance with the applying regulations and directives must be carried out!
If no threaded holes for earth connection are available on the gear unit, other appropriate measures
must be taken. This work must always be done by specialist electricians.
Cable entries should be protected against moisture.
Check that protective measures have been taken!

Screwconnection classes, tightening torques and initialtensioning forces
6.24.1 Screwconnection classes
The specified screw connections are to be fastened applying the tightening torques specified in the table
below.

*) The tightening torques applying to these addon parts can be found in the instructions supplied by the
manufacturers of the parts.
6.24.2 Tightening torques and initialtensioning forces
The tightening torques apply to friction coefficients of µ
coefficient µ
and dry, cut mating threads in steel or cast iron. Lubricants which alter the friction coefficient
must not be used and may overload the screw connection.
