I Introduction

Customer's Responsibility
The Customer/Operator is responsible to perform the necessary safety checks to ensure that
lubrication, cooling, maintenance and recommended practices are strictly followed for safe,
enjoyable operation.
All Transmission units are covered by a limited warranty.
Therefore: In respect to the handling of the transmission units the instructions stated in this
manual are to be strictly followed.
Maintenance programs described below are valid for the SD-10 transmission unit, not the
engine. For the intervals and procedures for maintenance of the engine, refer to the
operation manual and maintenance of the engine.
CAUTION
The manufacturer is not liable for any damages or losses caused by faulty installation, wrong
handling of the equipment and/or deficient maintenance. The Customer has to make sure,
that any external forces, as well as vibration caused by torsion and bending, are avoided. The
interaction between engine, shaft and propeller may lead to torsional vibration, producing a
hammering noise of gears and might damage the engine and/or transmission. The Supplier
is not liable for such torsional vibration inherent to the installation.
