A rotating unit for rotating a first component of a wind turbine rotatably mounted on a second component, which includes a gearwheel element arranged on the first component, a drive arranged on the second component by a drive holder including a drive housing and a drive pinion for actuating the gearwheel element, a connecting element arranged on the drive housing and configured to form a releasable connection between the drive housing and the drive holder, and fastening means, which interact with the connecting element and can be actuated between a clamping position and a disengagement position. The fastening means connect the drive housing, in the clamping position, in a force-fitting manner to the drive holder. In the disengagement position, the drive housing is displaceable on the drive holder in an adjustment direction such that it is possible to adjust a tooth-flank clearance between the drive pinion and the gearwheel element.
