1. Installation site
Drives must be properly installed if they are to produce the
rated torque. Improper installation may lead to oil leaks, re-
duced life, or even catastrophic failure. NORD gear drives
and motors are intended to be installed at a suitable mount-
ing site under the following conditions:

diameter of the circular surface.
STOP HARMFUL SITUATION STOP
The responsibility for the design and construction of the
support foundation is with the user. The foundation
must be adequate to withstand normal operating loads
and possible overloads while maintaining alignment to
attached system components under such loads. Motors
and drive components mounted on prefabricated base
plates can become misaligned during shipment. Always
check alignment after installation
.

buckling distortions and support the cantilevered weight of
the gear unit or gear motor.
STOP HARMFUL SITUATION STOP
Do not weld on the gear unit or use the gear unit as an
earth or ground connection for any welding procedure
as this may cause permanent damage to the bearings
and gears.
