The gearboxes can be used in any installation position. The thickness of the
application plate may be varied within the specified limits.
Gearbox damage due to objects getting pressed or knocked against the
shaft
Only fasten couplings, washers, gear wheels, chain wheels, etc. on the shaft with

suitable clamping sets.
Gearbox damage due to sealing leak
Make sure that the seals on the gearbox do not get damaged or soiled during

installation.
Assemble the motor according to the motor installation instructions enclosed in the
gearbox packaging.
1. Check that it is geometrically possible to install the gearbox on the application.
2. Thoroughly clean / degrease the flange face and centring on the gearbox (no
aggressive detergents)
3. Clamp the enclosed O-ring into the groove intended for this purpose between
output flange and application plate.
Note: pull the O-ring onto the casing. Once the gearbox rests against the
application plate (see item 4 and 5), carefully slide the O-ring into the groove.
4. Carefully introduce the gearbox parallel to the axis into the application centring.
Caution: the O-ring may not be crushed or pushed out of position in doing so.
5. Fix the gearbox on your application using suitable sealing screws. Observe the
tightening torques intended for this purpose and use a suitable screw locking
device.
Note: We recommend the optionally available sealing kit, which comprises the
matching sealing screws (see Chapter 4.2).
6. When the sealing kit is used, the mounting plate (including matching O-rings)
must be installed on the application side subsequent to point 4 using the sealing
screws intended for this purpose (as described in point 5).
Note: Insert the O-ring in mounting plate and application in the groove
intended for this purpose and if necessary, fix for installation with a suitable
adhesive agent.
