Transport and storage
4.1
Packaging
The gearbox is delivered packed in foil and cardboard boxes.
Dispose of the packaging materials at the recycling sites intended for this purpose. Observe
the applicable national regulations concerning disposal.
4.2
Transport
The table "Tbl-7" specifies the maximum gearbox weights. Depending on the version, the actual
weight can be considerably less.
4.2.1 Transport of gearboxes up to and including size 050
No special method is specified for transporting the gearbox.
4.2.2 Transport of gearboxes starting from size 110
For gearboxes of size 110, we recommend the use of hoisting equipment.
4.3
Storage
Store the gearbox in horizontal position and dry surroundings at a temperature of 0 °C to +40 °C in
the original packaging. Store the gearbox for a maximum of 2 years. Consult our Customer Service
department if the conditions are different.
For storage logistics, we recommend the "first in - first out" method.
Suspended loads can fall and can cause serious injuries and even
death.
Do not stand under suspended loads.
Secure the gearbox before transport with suitable fasteners (e.g. belts).
Impacts, for instance from falling or hard dropping, may damage the
gearbox.
Only use hoisting equipment and lifting accessories with sufficient
capacity.
Never exceed the maximum permissible load for hoisting equipment.
Lower the gearbox slowly.
