  • Page 9: Advice For Finish Bore

    KTR-N 40110 EN ® BoWex Sheet: 9 of 22 Operating/Assembly instructions Edition: Assembly 4.2 Advice for finish bore The maximum permissible bore diameters d (see chapter STOP 1 - technical data) must not be exceeded. If these figures are disregarded, the coupling may tear. Rotating particles may cause danger to life.

  • Page 10: Assembly Of The Hubs

    KTR-N 40110 EN ® BoWex Sheet: 10 of 22 Operating/Assembly instructions Edition: Assembly 4.3 Assembly of the hubs  We recommend to inspect bores, shaft, keyway and feather key for dimensional accuracy before assembly. Heating the hubs lightly (approx. 80 °C) allows for an easier mounting on the shaft. Please pay attention to the ignition risk in potentially explosive atmospheres! Touching the heated hubs causes burns.
