Storing The Gear Unit - Siemens FLENDER K1N Assembly And Operating Instructions Manual

Fig. 3: Attachment points
For a detailed illustration of the gear unit and the position of the attachment points, please refer
to the drawings in the order­specific gear­unit documentation.
For drive units where add­on parts such as drive motor or add­on coupling are fitted on the gear unit, an
additional attachment point may be required because of the shift in the centre of gravity.
4.3

Storing the gear unit

The gear unit must be stored in a sheltered place in the position of the original packaging or in the position
of use, placed on a vibration­free, dry base, and covered over.
When temporarily storing the gear unit and any single components supplied with it,
the preservative agent should be left on them. It must not be damaged, otherwise there
is a risk of corrosion.
Do not stack gear units on top of one another.
If the gear unit is being stored out of doors, it must be particularly carefully covered,
and care must be taken that neither moisture nor foreign material can collect on the
unit. Waterlogging should be avoided.
Unless otherwise agreed by contract, the gear unit must not be exposed to harmful
environmental factors such as chemically aggressive products.
Provision for special environmental conditions during transport (e.g. transport by ship) and
storage (climate, termites, etc.) must be contractually agreed.
