Observe the maximum storage time
Do not exceed the maximum storage time of two years.
Exceeding the specified maximum storage time can lead to a
change in the properties of the lubricant used and may damage the

Check the gear unit every six months to ensure it is in good condi-
tion.
Damage to the gear unit can become permanent through failure to
carry out maintenance work.

Keep the ambient temperature constant. Avoid solar radiation and
high humidity.
Condensation water can lead to damage during subsequent opera-
tion or to rust formation.
