2.9.1 General information

WARNING
Suspended loads can fall.
Severe or fatal injuries.
• Do not stand under the suspended load.
• Secure the danger zone.
• Use suitable, sufficiently rated and undamaged handling equipment.
• Consider the gear unit dimensions, the center of gravity and the weight that has
to be moved when selecting lifting equipment or crane (see dimension drawing).
The weight to be moved is the total weight of the drive package including mount-
on components (not only the weight of the gear unit).

CAUTION
Risk of slipping of unsecured mount-on components, such as keys.
Potential risk of crushing due to falling parts.
• Secure the mount-on components.

CAUTION
Risk of slipping due to lubricant leaking from damaged seals.
Minor injuries.
• Check the gear unit and mount-on components for leaking lubricant.

NOTICE
Improper transport can damage the gear unit.
Possible damage to property.
• Observe the following notes.

• Inspect the shipment for damage as soon as you receive the delivery. Inform the
shipping company immediately about any damage. It may be necessary to sus-
pend startup.
• The weight of the gear unit (without oil) is indicated on the nameplate or on the di-
mension sheet. Observe the loads and specifications given there.
• If possible, transport the gear unit without oil fill. If this is not possible, note that the
weight indicated on the nameplate refers only to the no-load weight of the gear
unit, and replace the breather with a screw plug.
22299017/EN – 10/2015

• The gear unit must be transported in a manner that prevents damage to the gear
unit and to mount-on components. For example, impacts against exposed shaft
ends can damage the gear unit.
• Use only the prescribed suspension points [1] to transport the gear unit (see order
documents). The load suspensions of the motor or mount-on components are
provided for stabilization purposes only.

Storage and transport conditions

2.10 Storage and transport conditions


The gear units can be provided with the following protection and packaging types de-
pending on the storage and transport conditions.

2.10.1 Internal conservation

Standard corrosion protection


After the test run, the test oil fill is drained out of the gear unit. The remaining oil film
protects the gear unit against corrosion for a limited period of time. If specified in the
order, the gear unit can be delivered with oil. Refer to the order documents for more
information.

Long-term corrosion protection


After the test run, the test oil fill is drained out of the gear unit and the interior space is
filled with a vapor phase inhibitor. The breather is replaced by a screw plug and in-
cluded in the gear unit delivery.
Corrosion protection with VCI anti-corrosion agent is not permitted for gear units that
are operated with food grade lubricants. Contact SEW‑EURODRIVE in such cases.

2.10.2 Exterior corrosion protection


The following measures are taken for exterior corrosion protection:
• Anti-corrosion agent is applied to bare, non-painted functional surfaces of shafts,
flanges, mounting and foot surfaces of the housing. The anti-corrosion agent must
be removed with a suitable solvent that does not damage the oil seal.
• Small spare parts and loose pieces, such as bolts, nuts, etc., are packed in corro-
sion protection plastic bags (VCI corrosion protection bags).
• Threaded holes and blind holes are covered by plastic plugs.
• If the gear unit is stored longer than 6 months, regularly check the protective coat-
ing of unpainted areas as well as the paint coating. Areas in which the protective
coating and/or painting has been damaged may have to be repainted.

2.10.3 Packaging

Standard packaging
The gear unit is delivered on a pallet, securely attached and without cover.
Use: Land transport

Long-term packaging
The gear unit is delivered in a wooden box that is also appropriate for sea transport.
Application: Sea transport and/or for long-term storage

2.10.4 Storage conditions

NOTICE
Improper storage may result in damages to the gear unit.
Possible damage to property.
• During storage up to startup, the gear unit must be stored in a shock-free manner
to prevent damage to the rolling bearing raceways.
• The output shaft must be rotated at least one full rotation every 6 months so that
the position of the rolling elements in the bearings of the input and output shafts
changes.

3.7.1 Fixed pivoted mounting position

Definition:
Gear units with fixed pivoted mounting position have a fixed mounting position that dif-
fers from the standard. This means the gear unit does not change its mounting posi-
tion during operation.

Example:
The type designation is set up as follows:

M1-M4/9°

M1 = Initial mounting position


M4 = Pivoting direction
9° = Fixed pivoting angle
Pivoted from mounting position M1 to M4 by 9°
This results in the following fixed pivoted mounting position:

3.7.2 Variable pivoted mounting position

Definition:
Gear units with variable pivoted mounting position can change the mounting position
variably during operation within the specified max./min. range.

Example:
The gear unit is operated in variable pivoted mounting position M1 to M6 = 9° and M1
to M5 = 12°.

Step 1:
The largest pivoting angle determines the positive pivoting direction (12° > 9°). In this
example, this is 12° towards M5.
12° → from M1 to M5, pivoted by +12°
9° → from M1 to M5, pivoted by -9°

3.7.3 Combination of variable and fixed pivoted mounting positions


Fixed and variable pivoted mounting positions can be combined.

Example:
The following example shows a combination of fixed and variable pivoted mounting
position. The type designation is set up as follows:

M1-M4/9° (fixed pivoted mounting position) M1-M5/–9°...12° (variable pivoted mounting position)

M1 = Initial mounting position M1 = Initial mounting position


M4 = Pivoting direction M5 = Pivoting direction
9° = Fixed pivoting angle 12° = 12° from M1 to M5
-9° = –9° from M1 to M5 (= 9° from M1
to M6)
The variable and fixed pivoted mounting position is shown on the nameplate as fol-
lows:

M1-M4/9° M1-M5/-9...12°/F1
Made in Germany

18014406531158923

When combining fixed and variable pivoted mounting position, the customer must de-

3.12.8 Gear unit mounting for hollow shaft gear units

NOTICE
Constraining forces can occur on the output shaft bearing due to the rigid connection
between the machine shaft and hollow shaft of the gear unit. This may result in dam-
ages to the output shaft bearing and increased fretting corrosion in the connection
between the machine and the hollow shaft of the gear unit.
Possible damage to property.
• The gear unit is usually foot or flange-mounted and used as bearing point when
the machine shaft has no individual bearing or merely provides one bearing
point. You have to provide for an accurate coaxial alignment with the bearing
point.
• If the machine shaft has at least 2 bearing points, the gear unit should be con-
nected merely to the machine shaft and supported with a torque arm. In order to
prevent excess stress on the bearing, gear units with foot or flange mounting are
to be avoided.

3.13.4 Drywell sealing system


Vertical gear units with output shaft pointing downwards can be equipped with a Dry-
well sealing system in addition to the usual sealing. The lower bearing of the output
shaft is separated from the oil chamber by an integrated tube [1]. The bearing is
grease-lubricated and has to be relubricated at regular intervals (DIN 3404 A G1/8 flat
grease nipple). The oil level is lower than the upper end of the tube to prevent oil [2]
from leaking at this point. All gear units with pressure lubrication (shaft end pump or
motor pump) are equipped with Drywell sealing system to ensure sufficient lubrication
of the upper bearing and the gearing.
For the lubrication points of drywell sealing systems, refer to chapter ""Relubrication of
drywell sealing system bearings"" (→ 2 234).

Lubrication

3.15 Lubrication
3.15.1 Lubrication types

Splash lubrication
The oil level is low; gearing and bearing parts that are not immersed in the oil bath are
lubricated by splashing oil. Standard lubrication type for horizontal mounting positions
(M1 or M3).

Bath lubrication
The gear unit is (almost) completely filled with oil; all gearing and bearing positions are
either completely or partly submerged in the oil bath.
• Standard lubrication type with oil expansion tank for:
– Pivoted mounting positions with horizontal gear units beyond a certain angle of
inclination (depending on type of gear unit, version and size)
– Vertical gear units (mounting position M5)
– Upright mounting position (M4) with X.K.. gear units
• Standard lubrication type without oil expansion tank for:
– Upright mounting position (M4) with X.F.. / X.T.. gear units

Pressure lubrication
The gear unit is equipped with a pump (shaft end pump or motor pump). The oil level
is low and might even be reduced when compared to splash lubrication. The gearing
and bearing parts that are not immersed in the oil bath are lubricated by oil through
lubrication lines.
Pressure lubrication is used when:
• Splash lubrication is not possible (see the relevant mounting positions and variants
under "oil bath lubrication").
• Instead of oil bath lubrication if it is not desired and/or is not thermally advantage-
ous.
• Drywell sealing system is required (only with a vertical output shaft with LSS facing
down).
• High input speeds are present and the maximum speed for the other types of lub-
rication is exceeded (dependent on the gear unit size, design, and number of
stages).

with splash lubrication:
• Oil dipstick for gear unit sizes X.100 – X.170
• Oil level glass for gear unit sizes X.180 – X.320
For other mounting positions and types of lubrication, the gear unit is equipped with an
oil dipstick as standard.

Gear unit venting


The purpose of a gear unit breather is to prevent that non-permitted pressure occurs
from heating during operation. The gear units are normally equipped with a high-qual-
ity breather filter with a filter mesh of 2 µm.

Oil drain
22299017/EN – 10/2015

The gear unit is equipped with an oil drain plug as standard. An oil drain valve may be
provided as option. This valve allows for a drain pipe to be easily attached when chan-
ging the gear unit oil.

4 Design of options and accessories


4.1 Oil expansion tank /ET
The oil expansion tank is designed to compensate for oil volume variations in the sys-
tem caused by temperature fluctuations. When the gear unit temperature increases,
the oil expansion tank absorbs some of the increasing oil volume and feeds it back to
the gear unit as the temperature goes down, which means the gear unit is always
completely filled with oil.
Based on the oil level specified by SEW‑EURODRIVE, the oil expansion tank is de-
signed to compensate the oil volume change within the permitted operating temperat-
ure range. A temperature decrease below the permitted range causes the oil expan-
sion tank to be completely emptied and air being sucked into the gear unit. This might
result in insufficient lubrication and a malfunction of the gear unit. An increase above
the permitted range causes an overfilling of the oil expansion tank and oil might leak
from the gear unit. During operation, any oil level below or above the level specified by
SEW‑EURODRIVE is permitted as long as there is oil in the expansion tank and the
oil expansion tank does not overflow.

In case of pressure lubrication, a direction-independent shaft end pump [1] supplies all
bearing points and gearing outside the oil sump with oil via a tube system.
The shaft end pump [1] is mounted externally to the gear unit and is driven by the in-
put shaft or intermediate shaft of the gear unit via a coupling. This ensures a high de-
gree of reliability of the pump functions.
The shaft end pump [1] is available in 5 different pump sizes. The adequate flow rate
for the specific application depends on the following factors:
• Required oil quantity for supplying lubrication points
• Position of the pump (connected with input shaft or intermediate shaft)
• Gear unit ratio
• Dimensioned for a speed of the gear unit

INFORMATION
• Proper functioning of the shaft end pump is monitored via the connected pressure
switch. Refer to chapter ""Pressure switch"" (→ 2 101) for information.
• Contact SEW‑EURODRIVE for information on the pump size selection.
• A minimum input speed is required for the shaft end pump to operate properly. If
22299017/EN – 10/2015

you use variable input speeds (e.g. inverter-controlled drives) or if you intend to
change the input speed of a gear unit equipped with a shaft end pump, it is essen-
tial that you contact SEW‑EURODRIVE.

Flange couplings with cylindrical interference fit /FC 4
4.5 Flange couplings with cylindrical interference fit /FC

NOTICE
Improper installation and assembly can damage the gear unit.
Possible damage to the gear unit.
• Gear units with rigid flange couplings cannot be additionally secured on the floor
with a rigid connection. This is why foot mounting of the gear unit or using a base
frame is not permitted.

Flange couplings [1] are rigid couplings for connecting 2 shafts [2].
They are suitable for operation in both directions of rotation, but cannot compensate
any shaft misalignments.
Torque between the shaft and the coupling is transmitted via a cylindrical interference
fit. Both coupling halves are mounted together at their flanges. The couplings are
equipped with several disassembly bores [3] for removing the interference fit hydraul-
ically.

Backstop /BS 4
4.7 Backstop /BS
The purpose of a backstop is to prevent unwanted directions of rotation. During opera-
tion, the backstop permits rotation in only one specified direction of rotation.
The backstop functions by using centrifugal lift-off sprags. Once the lift-off speed is
reached, the sprags completely lift off from the contact surface of the outer ring. The
backstop is lubricated with gear oil.
[1]

CCW CW

199930635

The direction of rotation is specified as viewed onto the output shaft (LSS).
• CW = Clockwise rotation
• CCW = Counterclockwise rotation
The permitted direction of rotation [1] is indicated on the housing.

INFORMATION
If the drive has a continuous output shaft, the direction of rotation of the backstop
should be given as one views shaft position 3.

Contact SEW‑EURODRIVE for differing requirements.


Wear can occur on the backstop when operated below lift-off speed.

The pressure switch indicates the correct oil pressure in the pressure pipe and in this
way indicates the operational readiness of pressure lubrication. The pressure switch
must be monitored by the operator.
During the starting phase of a gear unit with shaft end pump, pressure might build up
with a delay. The slow building up of pressure during this phase can cause the pres-
sure switch to issue a fault signal. You can prevent this by timing the pressure switch
to 5 seconds up to a maximum of 10 seconds.
Another switch-off delay is not permitted as this might damage the gear unit.

For various functions, the temperature switch is also used as limit value switch, for ex-
ample
• as "early warning"
or
• as "main alarm" for switching off the main motor.
To guarantee a long service life and functioning under all conditions, it is recommen-

perature switch.
The temperature switch is located in the oil sump of the gear unit. The exact position
depends on the gear unit type and shaft position.

4.23 Temperature switch /TSK


The TSK temperature switch is used with oil supply systems for circulation cooling. It
is provided with two fixed switching points (60 °C and 90 °C) for controlling and monit-
oring the system.
The temperature switch is integrated into the circuit of the oil supply system as follows:
• The cooling system is activated when the oil temperature reaches 60 °C.
• Warning signal or disconnection of the gear unit when the oil temperature exceeds
90 °C (usually a sign of malfunction in the oil supply system)
To guarantee a long service life and functioning under all conditions, it is recommen-

1002542475

4. Repeat this process until all disassembly bores are connected to an oil pump and
pressure is applied. At the last disassembly bore [7], the pressure must be in-
creased until at both front faces of the coupling [8] oil comes out in the shape of a
ring.
22299017/EN – 10/2015

INFORMATION
The coupling can also be disassembled with only one oil pump. In this case, the indi-
vidual disassembly bores must be blocked after pressure has been applied. Provide
for a consistent pressure throughout the disassembly procedure.

Flange couplings with cylindrical interference fit /FC 5
INFORMATION
Before removing the coupling, keep the oil pressure constant for approximately 30
minutes to create an evenly distributed oil film inside the interference fit. The pres-
sure must be kept constant at all bores throughout this time and the remaining disas-
sembly process.

5. Install the extractor [3]. Remove the coupling from the shaft. Since the oil pressure
breaks down after the last disassembly bore has been reached, the required force
for removing the coupling is significantly higher at the end.

5.11 Output shaft as hollow shaft with keyed connection /..A


5.11.1 General information
The material of the machine shaft as well as the keyed connection should be dimen-
sioned by the customer according to the loads that will occur. The shaft material
should have a yield point of at least 320 N/mm2.
The minimum key length given in the dimension sheet (see next page) must be ob-
served. If a longer key is used, it should be aligned symmetrically to the hollow shaft.
With a continuous machine shaft or axial forces, SEW‑EURODRIVE recommends that
the machine shaft be designed with a contact shoulder. It should be secured with a
suitable threadlocker to prevent the retaining screw of the machine shaft from loosen-
ing in the case of a reversing load direction. If necessary, two eccentric retaining
screws may be used.

5.11.2 Thread sizes / tightening torques

Sizes X100 – 160


Observe the notes in chapter "Important notes" (→ 2 93).

NOTICE
Improper disassembly may damage bearings and other components.
Possible damage to property.
• You may only use the hollow shaft as a support for disassembly. Note that sup-
porting on any other parts of the gear unit may damage the material.
• Remove the shrink disk properly. Never completely unscrew the retaining screws
because the shrink disk might jump off and cause an injury.
• Shrink disks and corresponding parts of different gear units must not be
swapped.

1. Loosen the locking screws [10] by a quarter turn one after the other to avoid strain-
ing the connecting surface.

INFORMATION
If the taper (outer ring) [9a] and the taper bushing (inner ring) [9b] do not separate by
themselves: Take the necessary number of retaining screws and screw them into the
removal bores evenly. Tighten the locking screws in several steps until the tapered
bushing separates from the bevel ring.

Displacement – Aligning the coupling

NOTICE
Improper mounting of the coupling may result in damage.
Possible damage to property.
• The shaft ends must be aligned accurately to ensure a long service life of the
coupling. Strictly adhere to the displacement values specified in the following
chapter. Exceeding these values will damage the coupling. Exact coupling align-
ment increases its service life.
22299017/EN – 10/2015

Important:
• The displacement values specified in the table (see next page) are maximum val-
ues that must not occur simultaneously. If radial offset and angular offset occur at
the same time, the permitted displacement values may only be used proportion-
ately.
• Use dial indicator, linear or feeler gauge to check whether the permitted displace-
ment values specified in the table (see next page) are adhered to.

5.24.3 Requirements on the water quality

INFORMATION
Special measures have to be taken when using sea water or brackish water. Contact
SEW‑EURODRIVE.

The following requirements on the water quality are recommendations. In exceptional


cases, certain concentrations of substances of content might cause unforeseen reac-
tions.
The quality of the water as well as its substances are important factors for assessing
the cooling water available for water cooling cartridges. The water quality is determ-
ined by the water hardness and the pH value of the water.

Water hardness
Water hardness is defined by the amount of hardeners (carbonates and bicarbonates)
in the water. Hardeners accumulate on the surface of the water cooling cartridge in
particular at high temperatures and in this way impair the performance. Take these de-
posits into account when selecting the water cooling cartridge for extremely hard wa-
ter.
The following table shows the classification of German degrees of hardness to water
quality °dH:

Degree of hardness1) Water quality


0 – 5 °dH Very soft water
5 – 10 °dH Soft water
10 – 20 °dH Medium hard water
20 – 30 °dH Hard water
22299017/EN – 10/2015

> 30 °dH Very hard water


1) 10 mg/l of hardener corresponds to 1 °dH

pH value
• The water cooling cartridge partially consists of a copper and nickel alloy, to which
the following applies:
→ Corrosion problems when pH value < 6
• With alkaline water:
→ Corrosion problems when water hardness < 6°dH.
Smaller values can cause corrosion due to free carbonic acid.
The following table describes the classification of the water quality based on the
pH value:

pH Value Water quality


4.5 Very acidic
4.5 – 6.0 Acidic
6.0 – 6.8 Slightly acidic
7.0 Neutral
7.2 – 7.7 Slightly alkaline
7.7 – 8.2 Alkaline

WARNING
Danger of electric shock.
Severe or fatal injuries.
• De-energize the oil heater before you start working on the unit.
• Secure the oil heater against unintended power-up.

NOTICE
Improper installation of the oil heater may result in damage to the gear unit.
Possible damage to property.
• Make sure the heating elements are fully immersed in the oil bath to avoid any
damage.

NOTICE
Improper change of the mounting position might result in malfunction of the gear unit
heater.
Possible damage to property.
• Do not change the mounting position without prior consultation with
SEW‑EURODRIVE. The warranty will become void without prior consultation.

INFORMATION
The electrical connection of the heating elements and the thermostat may only be es-
tablished by qualified personnel according to the current supply conditions on site.
Observe the connection voltage and the switching capacity of the thermostat. Im-
proper or incorrect cabling can damage the electrical components.

Oil heater 5
5.30.1 Information on the function of the oil heater
• The heater is screwed into the gear unit housing ex works and is controlled by a
thermostat. The trip temperature of the thermostat is set at the factory depending
on the lubricant used.
• The trip point of the thermostat of the oil heater, see table ""Thermostat setting on
delivery""  (→  2  192) is factory-set to a temperature of about 5 K above the re-
spective limit temperature "initial temperature for gear unit startup", see chapter
""Limit temperature for gear unit startup"" (→ 2 192).
At this temperature, see table ""Minimum permitted initial temperature for gear unit
start"" (→ 2 192), the thermostat disables the oil heater. Only then, the gear unit
may be started up. The thermostat activates the oil heater again once the temper-
ature is about 5 K below the trip point.
• In order to prevent the oil from burning, the heating elements of the heater have a
maximum surface load. This is why the heating process for cold gear unit oil can
take between one and several hours. The exact duration of the heating process
before the start varies depending on the gear unit size, type, mounting position, oil
quantity, and ambient temperature.
This is why the thermostat has to be energized permanently even when the drive
is at a brief standstill.
If the drive is at standstill over a longer period, for example during holidays, and
the thermostat is not energized, you have to make sure that the thermostat is ener-
gized in due time before the drive is started up.
• Thermostat and oil heater are installed in the gear unit and ready for operation.
Prior to startup, wire them properly and connect them to the current supply.
• Contact SEW‑EURODRIVE if a differing oil viscosity class is used or if ambient
temperatures fall below the specified limit temperature.
• During installation, check the thermostat setting according to chapter ""Thermo-
stat"" (→ 2 196).

The pressure switch indicates the correct oil pressure in the pressure pipe and in this
way indicates the operational readiness of pressure lubrication. The pressure switch
must be monitored by the operator.
During the starting phase of a gear unit with shaft end pump, pressure might build up
with a delay. The slow building up of pressure during this phase can cause the pres-
sure switch to issue a fault signal. You can prevent this by timing the pressure switch
to 5 seconds up to a maximum of 10 seconds.
Another switch-off delay is not permitted as this might damage the gear unit.

relevant for operation is available in drawings, on the order confirmation or any or-
der-specific documentation.
• Prior to startup, make sure that monitoring devices (such as pressure switch, tem-
perature switch) are fully operational.
• As of size X..220 and for X2F..180 – 210, avoid no-load operation independent of
the driven machine because operation with a load below the minimum load can
damage the rolling bearings of the gear unit.
• After having installed the gear unit, check to see that all retaining screws are tight.
• Make sure that the alignment has not changed after tightening the mounting ele-
ments.
• Prior to startup, ensure that rotating shafts as well as couplings are equipped with
suitable protective covers.

6.13 Gear unit shutdown / gear unit conservation

WARNING
Risk of crushing if the drive starts up unintentionally.
Severe or fatal injuries.
• Work on the gear unit only when the machine is not in use. Secure the drive unit
against unintentional power-up. Attach an information sign near the ON switch to
warn that the gear unit is being worked on.

INFORMATION
Gear units with water cooling system: disrupt the cooling water supply and drain the
water from the cooling circuit. Gear units with oil supply system: Please contact
SEW‑EURODRIVE.

Additional conservation measures are required if the gear unit is to be shut-down for a
22299017/EN – 10/2015

longer period. Depending on the location, the ambient conditions, and the lubrication
state, even a few weeks of downtime might require conservation measures.
6.13.1 Internal conservation
• New or hardly used gear units:
– For internal conservation, SEW‑EURODRIVE recommends the VCI conserva-
tion method.

Assembly and Operating Instructions – X.. Series Helical and Bevel-Helical Gear Units 213
6 Startup
Gear unit shutdown / gear unit conservation

– Apply the required amount of VCI anti-corrosion agent to the inside of the gear
unit (e.g. FUCHS LUBRITECH Anticorit VCI UNI IP-40, www.fuchs-lub-
ritech.com). The amount depends on the free space inside the gear unit. Any
existing oil may usually remain in the drive.
– Replace the breather filter with a screw plug and close the gear unit so that it is
air tight. Prior to startup, re-install the breather filter.
• After longer gear unit operation:
– The oil might be contaminated (oil sludge, water, etc.) after long periods of op-
eration. Therefore, drain the oil and thoroughly rinse the inside of the gear unit
with new oil prior to conservation. Observe the information in chapter "Chan-
ging the oil" (→ 2 228) in the corresponding operating instructions. The inside
of the gear unit can then be conserved as described above.

INFORMATION
For gear units with contactless sealing systems, contact SEW‑EURODRIVE.
For gear units without contactless sealing systems, you may also use the oil type in-
dicated on the nameplate to perform the conservation. In this case, the gear unit
must be completely filled with clean oil. Replace the breather filter with a screw plug
and fill in the oil from the highest point of the gear unit. In order to provide for suffi-
cient conservation, all the gearing components and bearing points must be com-
pletely covered in oil.
Prior to startup, re-install the breather filter. Only use the oil grade specified on the
nameplate.

6.13.2 External corrosion protection


• Clean the respective surfaces.
• Grease the shaft near the sealing lip to separate the sealing lip of the oil seal and
the anti-corrosion agent.
• Apply a wax-based protective coating to shaft ends and unpainted surfaces as ex-
ternal corrosion protection (e.g. Herm. Hölterhoff Hölterol MF 1424,
www.hoelterhoff.de).

INFORMATION
Consult the respective supplier regarding the compatibility with the oil that is used
and the length of corrosion protection for your particular gear unit version.
Observe the information in chapter "Storage and Transport Conditions" in the corres-
ponding operating instructions. This chapter provides information on the possible
storage periods in conjunction with adequate packaging – depending on the storage
location.

above 50 °C.
• Always fill the gear unit with the same oil grade as before. Mixing oils of different
grades and/or manufacturers is not permitted. Especially synthetic oils may not be
mixed with mineral oils or other synthetic oils. Flush the gear unit with the new oil
grade thoroughly when switching from mineral oil and/or when switching from syn-
thetic oil of one basis to synthetic oil of a different basis.
Refer to the lubricant table for information on the permitted oil of the various lubric-
ant manufacturers.
• The oil grade and oil viscosity are listed on the nameplate of the gear unit. The oil
quantity specified on the nameplate is an approximate quantity. The mark on the
oil dipstick or the oil level glass is the decisive indicator of the correct oil quantity.
When additional attachments, e.g. an oil supply system, are mounted to the gear
unit, the oil fill quantity is higher. Observe the operating instructions of the oil sup-
ply system.
• When changing the oil, flush the gear unit interior thoroughly with oil to remove oil
sludge, oil residue, and abrasion. Use the same oil grade for this purpose as for
operating the gear unit. Fill in fresh oil only after all residues have been removed.
• For the position of the oil level plug, oil drain plug and breather plug, refer to the
order documents.
• An oil level above the max marking might indicate that foreign liquids (e.g. water)
have entered. An oil level below the min marking might indicate a leakage. Find
out and eliminate the cause before you fill in new oil.
• If required, empty accessories e.g. filters and pipes.

INFORMATION
• The specified fill quantities are recommended values. The precise values vary de-
pending on the number of stages and gear ratio.
• The mark on the oil dipstick or the oil level glass is the decisive indicator of the
correct oil quantity.
• In case of pivoted mounting positions, the lubricant fill quantity on the nameplate
may vary from the standard. The fill quantity specified on the nameplate is a guide
value. The required oil quantity depends on the respective marks on the oil dip-
stick.
