2.6 Reference to EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
The couplings supplied by KTR should be considered as components, not machines or partly completed ma-
chines according to EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. Consequently KTR does not have to issue a declaration
of incorporation. For details about safe assembly, start-up and safe operation please refer to the present operat-
ing/assembly instructions considering the warnings.

Storage, transport and packaging
3.1 Storage
The coupling hubs are supplied in preserved condition and can be stored at a dry and roofed place for 6 - 9
months.
With favourable storage conditions the properties of the elastomer part remain unchanged up to 5 years.
The storage rooms must not include any ozone-generating devices like e. g. fluorescent
!
light sources, mercury-vapour lamps or electrical high-voltage appliances.
Humid storage rooms are not suitable.
Please make sure that condensation is not generated. The best relative air humidity is less
than 65 %.
3.2 Transport and packaging
In order to avoid any injuries and any kind of damage please always make use of proper
!
transport and lifting equipment.
The couplings are packed differently each depending on size, number and kind of transport. Unless otherwise
contractually agreed, packaging will follow the in-house packaging specifications of KTR.
4
Assembly
The coupling is generally supplied in individual parts. Before assembly the coupling has to be inspected for com-
pleteness.
