Stop!
Do not place gearbox onto breather valve!
When using gearbox sizes 03, 04 and 05 (except for GSS 05) it is not necessary to provide
special breathing measures.
Breather elements are mounted for gearbox sizes 06 to 14 and GSS 05. In special cases, they
may be done without. When using gearbox sizes 09 to 14 in mounting position C, we
recommend the use of an oil compensation container (chapter 4.4.12).
Gearboxes supplied with a breather element bear a corresponding label on the gearbox.
Remove shipping bracket on breather valve.

For mounting positions differing from the standard mounting positions A − F, the breather
function must be checked. Mount breather elements supplied loose (differing from the
standard) as described in chapter 4.4.11. Gearboxes which can be mounted in different
positions (see chapter 7.2.6) are supplied without breather element.
Ensure ventilation before initial commissioning!
