If the water impeller on a Ruggerini RM 80 is functioning properly, but there is still an issue with the coupling, possible causes could include:
1. Worn or Damaged Coupling – The coupling may be worn out, cracked, or broken, leading to improper power transmission. 2. Misalignment – If the coupling is not properly aligned with the engine or the driven component, it may slip or wear unevenly. 3. Loose Fasteners – Bolts or securing screws on the coupling may be loose, causing slippage or improper engagement. 4. Sheared or Stripped Keyway – If the coupling connects via a keyway, the key may be sheared or stripped, preventing proper torque transfer. 5. Excessive Vibration – Misalignment, wear, or an imbalanced component may cause vibrations that affect the coupling’s performance. 6. Insufficient Lubrication (if applicable) – Some couplings require lubrication; lack of it could cause overheating or failure. 7. Material Fatigue – Over time, repeated stress can weaken the coupling, causing cracks or deformation.
Inspect the coupling for visible damage, alignment issues, and fastener security to identify the exact problem.
