1 Operation in accordance with its in-
tended use
Gear units/geared motors from STOBER comply with the val-
id standards and regulations. They are intended for installa-
tion in commercial machines and systems. Intended use
includes:
• Use of the gear unit/geared motor exclusively for the ap-
plication that it was designed for.
• No modifications to the gear unit/geared motor by the
customer.
• No overload of the gear unit/geared motor with regard to
the maximum permitted speeds, torques and tempera-
tures that are specified in the order confirmation.
• Compliance with the inspection and maintenance inter-
vals.
• Observance of this documentation.
If the gear units/geared motors are to be used to left or hold
loads, the machine manufacturer must check whether addi-
tional safety measures are required.

1.1 Surface temperature

To ensure safe operation of the gear unit, the surface tem-
perature of the gear unit must not exceed the following tem-
perature values:
• For mineral lubricants 80° C,
• For synthetic lubricants 90° C.
For this reason, observe the following:
• The standard version of gear units/geared motors from
STOBER may be used at surrounding temperatures be-
tween 0 °C and +40 °C. Different surround temperature
ranges are specified in the order confirmation for special
versions.
• The gear units must be protected from overload and be
adequately ventilated. More detailed information can be
found in the Assembly chapter.

Technical data

The technical data of the gear unit/geared motor can be found

Transportation and storage

When transporting the gear units/geared motors make certain
not to damage the shafts and bearings with impacts.
Sling the gear with a suitable support cable directly in the gear
unit housing. In addition sling the motor mounted on the gear
unit and make sure that there is no diagonal pull.
The gear units/geared motors may only be stored in en-
closed, dry rooms. Storage in open air areas with a roof is only
permitted for brief periods. Protect the gear units/geared mo-
tors from all damaging environmental effects and mechanical
damage.
Avoid extreme temperature fluctuations with high relative hu-
midity when the gear units/geared motors are being stored
temporarily to prevent formation of water from condensation.
Long-term storage
If long-term storage is planned, protect the bare parts of the
gear unit against corrosion. Completely fill the variable speed
drive with integrated spur gear stage with lubricant that is
specified on the nameplate. Reduce the lubricant to the cor-
rect filling quantity according to the nameplate before com-
missioning the drive.

Mounting

Inspect the delivery for any transport damage immediately af-
ter you receive it. Notify the transport company of any dam-
age immediately. Do not operate damaged gear units/geared
motors.
Remove the packaging of the gear unit/geared motor and dis-
pose of it according to the applicable legal requirements on
site.
