All components should be
stored indoors
. The
area of storage should be kept at a constant
temperature above 55ºF (13ºC) and relative
humidity of approximately 40%, free from
heavy dust and contaminants.
Outdoor storage is
not
recommended. Our
warranty policy does not cover damage as a
result of improper storage.
Except for placing the parts container (crate)
and bracing on the empty carriage, stacking
of the various gate components is strictly
forbidden. Enclosure and gate panels will
warp. Objects stacked on top of the columns,
drivebase assembly and/or hydraulic
cylinders may cause severe damage. See
Figure 17-2.
Storage for more than two (2) months after
shipment, will require that the following
maintenance procedures be performed every
sixty days from date of shipment:
1. If
roller chains
are stored for an extended
period of time or in a corrosive
environment, they must be dipped or
stored in a non-detergent oil to retain their
original condition.
2. Lightly coat the
sprockets
with a non-
detergent oil to prevent corrosion. See
Figure 17-3.
3. Apply lithium-type grease to the
pillow
block and bearings
. Wrap or trap the pillow
blocks to avoid exposure to contaminants
if needed.
4. Lubricate the
safety cams
on the exposed
wheelblock assemblies
with a non-
detergent oil and rotate to make sure the
safety cams move freely. See Figure 17-4.
