Siemens Flender KMP Series Assembly And Operating Instructions Manual page 28

The following control measures must be taken:
• The pressure, suction and/or return lines (6, 8, 9) are sealed with blind flanges.
• The oil drain cock of the tilting pad thrust bearing chamber (10) is sealed with a screw plug.
• The vent hole for the gear unit (4) is sealed with a screw plug.
• The labyrinth seal of the output flange is sealed with the round cord hollow profile (13) and masked
airtight.
The following procedure is recommended:
• Seal input shaft with a sealing cap (3).
• Seal bottom oil drain of the sealing cap (2) with a screw plug.
• Remove the screw plug from the tilting pad thrust bearing chamber that has been screwed in instead
of the air filter (11).
• The oil to be filled in must be filtered beforehand with a filter mesh of 25 μm (0.0010 inch).

• Fill sealing cap on the input shaft through the ventilation of the sealing cap (1). The ventilation (1) is to
be closed, only once the oil filling of the gear unit is completed, unless oil is escaping from this opening
before then.
• For filling, remove the sealing cap that seals the oil drain cock of the gear unit (7). The gear unit must
be filled with oil through the bottom oil drain cock of the gear unit (7).
Note
The gear unit will be filled completely only when the oil level indicator on the tilting pad thrust bearing
chamber (12) shows it is filled completely with oil.
