Do not reach into the working area of the coupling during operation. 1.3. Other applicable provisions, standards etc. The couplings are designed on the basis of DIN 740, part 2 (see RINGSPANN catalogue “shaft coupling”). If the operating conditions (e.g. output, speed) should change, the original design of the coupling must be reviewed along with the load-bearing capacity of the shafts and the used shaft-hub-connections.

The couplings type REK … DGO / …DHO / …DGZ may only be operated within the operating limits specified in section “7. Technical prerequisite for reliable operation”. RINGSPANN shall not assume any liability for damages that result from unauthorised constructional changes or an unintended use.

If the unit should be operated despite the aforementioned states, it can result in damages to the coupling and the drivetrain. Attention! RINGSPANN shall not assume any liability for any damages that result in the event of any impermissible use . Condition as delivered Couplings are generally delivered ready-for-installation in individual parts.
