3. Instructions for use
Storage
To safeguard the service life and correct functionality of our products, the following rules must be followed:
• Ensure that the motor gearboxes are stored in a dust-free and moisture-free environment.
• The relative air humidity of the storage location must be less than 60%.
• Store the motor gearboxes at temperatures between -15 and +60°C [5°F to 140°F].
• Avoid sudden changes in temperature to prevent the formation of condensation.
If you wish to store the motor gearboxes for a lengthy period of time, you can use preservatives to protect the
unpainted surfaces, such as threaded holes and mounting surfaces for chain couplings, against corrosion.
Disposal
Drain used oil from the motor gearbox. Used oil must be collected, temporarily stored, transported and replaced
properly. Observe national legislation. Collect waste oil and dispose of it in accordance with regulations. Clean up any
spilled oil immediately using a suitable emulsifier or absorbent material.
Caution!
Improper disposal of waste oil is hazardous to the environment and to health. Used oil must
be taken to a collection point for waste oil. Avoid prolonged skin contact.
Dispose of housing parts, gear wheels, shafts and roller bearings of the transmission as scrap metal. The worm gears
may contain black non-ferrous metal alloys and must be disposed of accordingly. Dispose of the packaging materials in
accordance with regulations or bring them to a recycling station.
