Storage and transport
3.1
Storage
Caution!
Gefahr
Improper storage can damage the gearbox. This can lead to premature aging of the
lubricant and sealing elements, which can greatly reduce or shorten their service
life or sealing effect.
• Choose a dry storage location to avoid corrosion.
• The long-term storage temperature must be kept between 0 C and +40 C because
of the lubricant's storage life and the possibility of lubricant or seal aging.
• Direct sunlight or UV radiation accelerates the aging process of the seals and
results in premature wear.
• To ensure lubricant serviceability, the storage period must not exceed 1 year.
3.2

Transport

Caution!
Gefahr
When lifting and moving the gearbox, there is a risk of it falling if it is not properly
secured. When the gearbox is being moved, there is a pinch point hazard between
the gearbox and other application components.
• Keep the gearbox weight and gearbox dimensions listed in its technical specifica-
tions in mind.
• The gearbox must be lifted by means of suitable lifting aids which wrap directly
around the gearbox housing.
