} Danger!
Only transport the drive with transport equipment or hoists which are suitable
for this load (see transport weights, chapter 3.2). Ensure a safe fixing. Avoid
shocks!
The motors attached to the gearbox are partially equipped with eyebolts.
These are exclusively determined for motor/gearbox mounting and
dismounting and must not be used for the complete geared motor!
4.1 Storage
If you do not install the DISCO at once, please ensure proper storage conditions.
ƒ Up to one year:
– Without special measures in dry, dust−free enclosed rooms without direct sunlight.
– Store DISCO with ventilation in a manner that the breather screw is at the top.
– Shafts and bright surfaces are delivered with protection against corrosion.
ƒ Over one year:
– Please consult the factory.
4.2 Installation
Mount the drive systems on an even surface, free from distortion. If they are mounted on
a baseplate, then the baseplate must also be mounted without distortion. If this is not
done, then stresses appear in the gearbox housing and have a bad effect on the parallel
alignment of the shafts and thus on the bearing and tooth alignment.
The output shaft of the drive system must be well aligned with the machine shaft that is
to be driven. Small inaccuracies can be compensated by using a flexible coupling.
Couplings, gear wheels, sprockets etc. must only be fixed by screwing to the shaft ends of
the drive system. Driving them on can damage the ball bearings.
