Missing parts or damage must be notified immediately in writing to the carrier the insurance, or alpha getriebebau GmbH. Packaging The gearhead is delivered packed in foil and cardboard boxes.
/LPK Assembly Assembly Loose or overloaded screw connections can damage the gearhead. Use a calibrated torque wrench to tighten and check all screw connections for which a tightening torque has been specified. Intensive distortions when assembling the motor (e.g. for motors with shaft shoulder, extensive chamfer radius or longer shafts than permitted for the gearhead) can damage the gearhead and the motor.
Assembly /LPK Mounting the motor to the gearhead If the motor shaft has a feather key, remove it. If recommended by the manufacturer, apply a half wedge. Turn the plug receptacle (A) so that the threaded pin (B) can be reached through the mounting holes.
/LPK Assembly Mounting the gearhead onto a machine Smear screw-bonding agent (for example Loctite 243) onto the fastening bolts. Mount the gearhead using the fastening bolts to the machine only by the threaded bores (K). Mount the gearhead in such a way that the type plate remains legible.
Startup and operation /LPK Startup and operation Objects flung out by rotating components can cause serious injuries. Remove objects and tools from the gearhead before putting it into operation. Rotating components on the gearhead can pull in parts of the body and cause serious injuries and even death.
/LPK Maintenance and disposal Maintenance and disposal Hot gearhead housing can cause serious burns. Touch the gearhead housing only when wearing protective gloves or after the gearhead has been idle for some time. Rotating components on the gearhead can pull in parts of the body and cause serious injuries and even death.
Maintenance and disposal /LPK Notes on the lubricant used All gearheads are lubricated for their entire working life. You can obtain further information on the lubricant from our Customer Service. Supplementary information Consult our Customer Service Department for supplementary information on exchanging the adaptor plate, on disassembly and on disposal of the gearhead.
