3.2 Storage
Warning!
Damage caused by loss of material properties.
Long storage or storage under improper conditions means that certain materials age prematurely, lose
their properties and can be damaged. Damaged components can result in further property damage.
Recommendations for the prevention of damage caused by storage:
•
Reduce the storage time to the minimum and do not exceed the max. storage time of 2 years.
•
Turn the motor shaft at least once every 6 months by hand or at low speed (max. 50
rpm
). During
this run-in period, bearing noises can occur, these are completely normal and not a sign of
bearing damage.
•
Apply a preservative coating to unprotected components such as the shaft end.
•
Avoid contact corrosion.
•
Use the original packaging.
•
Use covers for protection against dust.
•
Check the seals for damage when the goods are issued or before using them.
