Installing the machine
• For vertical installation, use all the eyebolts provided and when necessary, hoisting straps
according to EN 1492-1 and/or lashing straps according to EN 12195-2 to stabilize the
position.
• Prevent foreign bodies from falling into the fan cover. For vertical machine installation with
the shaft end facing downwards, attach a protective canopy.
• If the shaft extension is facing upwards, the user must prevent liquid from moving along the
shaft and entering the motor.
• Clean bare metal surfaces with anti-corrosion agent using mineral spirits to ensure proper
installation and/or machine mounting.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation. Do not draw in the hot discharged air directly – also from
adjacent equipment.
• Avoid exposing them to direct, intense solar radiation, rain, snow, ice, or also dust for
extended periods. Attach a covering structure or an additional cover when using or storing
outdoors.
• Do not exceed the permissible axial and radial forces.
• When clouds or layers of dust are present, strictly maintain the temperature limits according
to EN/IEC 60079-14. The maximum surface temperature is stamped on the rating plate for
dust explosion-proof motors.

Foot mounting
Note
Only authorized retrofit partners must be employed to relocate the bolted-on mounting feet at
the machine enclosure.
After attaching the mounting feet, you must note the following in order to avoid stressing
and deforming the machine.
• Ensure that the foot mounting surfaces are aligned in one plane and are parallel to the
machine shaft.
• Post-machine the foot mounting surfaces or use thin shims, for example.
• Professionally touch up damaged painted surfaces.
• Observe the information provided in Chapter Aligning and mounting
