How do you store a motor?

Store electronic copies of the previous forms for future reference, or simply keep them in an envelope attached to the motor. Short-term storage. Motors that will be in storage for just a few weeks primarily require protection from the weather (see “Indoor storage” and “Outdoor storage” below) and ambient vibration (more on this later).
