Installing
4.4 Mounting an input or output element on the gearbox shaft
NOTICE
Premature wear or material damage due to misalignment
Misalignment caused by excessive angular or axial misalignment of the shaft ends to be joined.
Ensure precise alignment of the individual components.
NOTICE
Damage caused by improper handling
Bearings, housing, shaft and locking rings are damaged due to improper handling.
Do not use impact or knocks to mount input and output elements onto the shaft.
Note
Deburr the parts of elements to be fitted in the area of the hole or keyways.
Recommendation: 0.2 x 45°
Where couplings are to be fitted in a heated condition, observe the specific operating
instructions for the coupling. Unless otherwise specified, apply the heat inductively using a torch
or in a furnace.
Use the center holes in the shaft end faces.
Use a fitting device to fit the input or output elements.
