An information generating device includes a control unit for causing a motor to rotate a pinion gear meshing with a ring gear while a predetermined braking force is applied to brake rotation of a turnable part of a wind turbine, thereby causing a fastening part to deform, where the fastening part is provided to fixedly attach the motor to a target part, a deformation amount obtaining unit for obtaining an amount of deformation experienced by the fastening part, and an information generating unit for generating correlation information indicating a correspondence between a driving torque of the motor and the amount of deformation experienced when the driving torque is used to rotate the motor.
