6.1 Storage of the packed drive unit
At delivery the drive unit is protected by a plastic hood with a lable showing the
center of gravity. Do not remove the plastic hood until installation!
The hydraulic components are protected internally with desiccant bags to absorbe
moisture. This provides sufficient corrosion protection for indoor storage in air
conditioned premises for about 12 months.
The drive unit and belonging parts should be stored indoors, in dry, vibration free
and dust free conditions. It should not be stored for more than three months in non-
air conditioned premises.
The drive unit must be placed where not exposed to strong sunlight or severe
cooling to avoid condensation.
If storage time exceed limits, the drive unit must be operated so that the hydraulic
system is lubricated with new fluid (see 10.7: Drive unit out of service).
