4. Cover units completely to exclude dirt, dust, moisture and other

foreign materials. If possible, insert motor in strong, transparent
plastic bag. Attach moisture indicator to side of motor, place
several bags of silica gel inside, then seal plastic bag. If motor
cannot be placed in plastic bag and relative humidity exceeds
50%, use space heaters to keep motor at least 10˚F above
ambient air temperature.

5. Rotate motor shaft at least 10 revolutions every month;

relubricate bearings after each year of storage.

6. Check desiccant bags and rust preventative monthly; replace

desiccant and recoat with rust preventative as required. Also
check operation of space heaters.
