Measures before commissioning

The following list of checks to be performed prior to commissioning does not claim to be

specific situation on-site.
Once the system has been correctly installed, you should check the following prior to
commissioning:
• The machine is undamaged.
• The machine has been properly installed and aligned.
• The output transmission elements are set correctly for their type,
e.g. alignment and balancing of couplings, belt forces in the case of a belt drive, tooth
forces and tooth-flank backlash in the case of geared output, radial and axial clearance in
the case of coupled shafts.
• All fixing screws, connection elements, and electrical connections have been tightened to
the specified tightening torques.
• The operating conditions match the data provided in accordance with the technical
documentation, such as degree of protection, ambient temperature, etc.
• Moving parts, for example the coupling, move freely.
• All touch protection measures for both moving and live parts have been implemented.
• Screwed-in lifting eyes are removed after installation or secured to prevent them from
becoming loose.
