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 140
No special method is specified for transporting the gearbox.
4.2.2 Transport of gearboxes starting from size 180
For gearboxes of size 180, we recommend the use of hoisting equipment.
The following table shows a gearbox for which at least one support bore [R] is provided for an eye
bolt (e.g. in accordance with to DIN 580). The eye bolts are used for attaching the gearbox securely
to the hoisting equipment.
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.
