General safety information Safety during installation An incorrect installation, an improper use, the removing or disconnection of protection devices, the lack of inspections and maintenance, improper connections may cause severe personal injury or property damage. Therefore the component must be moved, installed, commissioned, handled, controlled, serviced and repaired exclusively by responsible qualifi...
General safety information Residual risks The products supplied by Rossi S.p.A. have been designed and manufactured according to the essential health and safety requirements provided for by Machine Directive 2006/42/EC - Annex I. The following table lists the residual risks that the user is required to handle in accordance with the instructions contained in this document and in those, if any, enclosed with the shipment.
Application conditions and use limits Gear reducers are designed for industrial applications according to catalog data, ambient temperature 0 ÷ +40 °C (with peaks at -10 °C and +50 °C), maximum altitude 1 000 m. Not allowed running conditions: application in aggressive environments having explosion danger, etc. Ambient conditions must comply with specifi...
How supplied and product designation Lubrication Unless otherwise stated, the gear reducers are supplied complete with synthetic oil for long-life lubrication. For V6 mounting position, the upper bearing and metal shield are lubricated with grease. In detail, see page 19. Painting Standard paint unless otherwise indicated.

Lifting, handling and storing Lifting and handling Make sure that the lifting equipment (e.g.: crane, hook, eye bolt, straps, etc.) are suitable for the weight and size of the gear reducer (consult Rossi technical catalog for dimensions and weight). For the lifting and transport of gear reducer (or gearmotor) use through holes or threads on the gear reducer housing feet as stated in the fi...
Lifting, handling and storing Storage Surroundings should be suffi ciently clean, dry (relative humidity < 50%), free from excessive vibrations (v ≤ 0,2 mm/s) not eff to damage the bearings (vibrations must be limited, although within a wider range, also during transport) and must have a temperature of 0 ÷...
Installation of gear reducer General Before installing, check that: • the shafts and contact surfaces are not damaged; • gear reducer specifi cations are suitable for ambient conditions (temperature, atmosphere, etc.); • the structure on which the gear reducer is secured is fl at, levelled and suffi ciently dimensioned to ensure installation stability and absence of vibrations, (vibration speed v ≤...
Installation of gear reducer Attention! During the running the gear reducers could have hot surfaces; Always wait that the gear reducer or the gearmotor to cool before carrying out any operations. Further technical documentation can be downloaded from our website www.rossi.com. Fitting of components to shaft ends It is recommended that the bore of parts keyed to low speed shaft ends is machined to K7 tolerance (H7 when load is uniform and light).
Installation of gear reducer Flange mounting If through-holes ( flange B5) are used for fastening, carefully select the length of the fastening screws, which must be long enough to ensure a sufficiently extended clamping section to ensure correct fastening of the gearbox to the machine. Before tightening the bolt be sure that the eventual centering of fl...

Installation of gear reducer Incorrect Correct Generally, it is recommended to machine the hole of parts keyed onto shaft end, tolerance H7. For low speed shaft ends, provided that load is not uniform and light, tolerance must be K7. Before mounting, thoroughly clean mating surfaces with proper antirust products, and lubricate against seizure and fretting corrosion.
Lubrication General The gear pairs and the bearings are oil bathed, splashed or lubricated «for life» with grease (with or without NILOS ring). Unless otherwise stated, gearmotors are supplied FILLED WITH POLYGLYCOL BASIS SYNTHETIC OIL (KLÜBER Klübersynth GH 6-220, MOBIL Glygoyle 220, SHELL Omala S4 WE 220), providing lubrication – assuming pollution-free surroundings – “for life”.
Lubrication Lubricant table Using synthetic oil is always recommended, especially if you want to increase the lubrication interval, ambient temperature range and/or reduce the oil temperature. Important: Inappropriate lubricants can cause damage to the gear reducer. Viscosity and type of lubricating oil used for fi lling are indicated on the gear reducer name plate. Rossi S.p.A.

Lubrication Oil change interval An overall guide to oil-change interval is given in the table, and assumes pollution-free surroundings. When heavy overloads are present, halve the values. Oil-change interval [h] Oil temperature [C °] Mineral Oil Synthetic oil ≤ 65 8000 25000 65 ÷...
Lubrication Oil (quantity) levels Important! Check the mounting position, taking into account that if the gear reducer is installed in a mounting position other than that indicated on the name plate, this may require topping up through the hole provided, the quantity of lubricant corresponding to size x and indicated in the following tables.
