KTR-N 47110 EN ® RADEX Sheet: 14 of 33 Operating/Assembly instructions Edition: Assembly 4.3 Assembly/disassembly of flange hubs We recommend to inspect bores, shaft, keyway and feather key for dimensional accuracy before assembly. Heating the flange hubs lightly (approx. 80 °C) allows for an easier mounting onto the shafts. Pay attention to the ignition risk in potentially explosive atmospheres! Touching the heated hubs causes burns.
