2. Storage
During storage it is recommended to keep the Gear Operator in the same position as
delivered, with the included protective wrapping to avoid damages or dirt accumulation. The
wrap must not be removed until the operator is to be installed. As far as possible, store in a
dry and clean environment. If you expect to have the product stored for a long period of time,
apply anti rust oil over machined areas. Repeat every 6 months if necessary.
3. Installation instructions
3.1 Preparation
Remove any wrapping material from the product.
The Gear Operator is delivered in the closed position.
It is recommended to put the
Handwheel

assembling the Gear Operator to the valve. The included
Pin

purpose.
3.2 Assembling to the valve
1- Check if the bolt circle on top flange and stem dimensions of the valve coincide with the
bolt circle and square hole of the gear operator, respectively (connection according to ISO
5211 standard).
2- Make sure that both valve and gear operator are in fully closed position.
3- Mount the gear box with its shaft perpendicular to the valve (or pipeline) by means of the
attached four screws and washers. Apply "cross method" for tightening.
4- The assembly is ready for adjustment (see below).
3.3 Adjustment of the regulation screws
The unit is already adjusted in the factory at 0º and 90º, however it could be necessary a

10º for both positions.
