Long-term storage
Observe the maximum storage time
Do not exceed the maximum storage time of two years.
Exceeding the specified maximum storage time can lead to
changes in the properties of the lubricant used and damage the
servo drive during subsequent operation.
Perform recurring inspections
Check the servo drive every six months to ensure it is in good con-
dition.
Damage to the servo drive or maintenance work not carried out will
affect the service life of the installed components and parts.

Keep the ambient temperature constant. Avoid solar radiation and
high air humidity.
Condensation water can lead to damage during subsequent opera-
tion or to rust formation.
