9.2 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Service program to be conducted when commissioning the gear unit and thenafter at 500 hours
interval:
Check that noise at constant load does not vary. Excessive vibration or noise can indicate wear
of the gear train or failure of a bearing.
Check for lubricant leaks from the gaskets/seals.
Check the torque that the locking bolt of the input coupling is tightened at. Refer to values
specified in the relevant section of this Manual.
Check that all bolts securing the gear unit to the machine are tightened firmly. Refer to
tightening torque values specified in this Manual.
Clean all dust and process waste off the gear unit. Do not use solvents or other products which
are incompatible with the construction material and do not direct high-pressure jets of water at
the gear unit.

9.3 LUBRICATION

Gearboxes are filled at the factory with synthetic lubricant in a quantity suitable for operation in any
mounting position. In the absence of contamination the original lubricant charge can be considered "for
life" and no periodical changes are required.
Lubricant specs can be found on the nameplate.
