4.17.2 Checking the delivery
The components are assembled on an individual basis. When you take receipt of the delivery,
please check immediately whether the scope of the delivery matches up with the
accompanying documents. No claims relating to defects/items missing from the delivery will be
accepted if they are submitted at a later date.
● Report any apparent transport damage to the delivery agent immediately.
● Immediately report any apparent defects/missing components to your contact partner.
These Operating Instructions are part of the scope of delivery; keep them in a location where
they can be easily accessed.
4.17.3 Securing the rotor
Depending on the version, the machine is fitted with a rotor shipping brace. This protects the
bearings against damage due to shock and vibration during transport or storage.
NOTICE
Vibration and shock during transport
Not using the rotor shipping brace can cause damage to the machine if it is jolted during
transport. Material damage can result.
● If the machine is fitted with a rotor shipping brace, this should always be used when
transporting the machine. The rotor shipping brace must be attached during the transport.
● Only remove it before pulling on the output element.
● For machines with a vertical type of construction:
– Do not remove the rotor shipping brace until the machine is in a vertical position.
– If a machine has to be transported in a horizontal position, the rotor must be fixed in
position before the machine is turned onto its side. Vertical machines can be supplied
in the horizontal position from the manufacturing plant.
