Mounting
1. Mounting on Exact Planes
The Horizontal Type oil-lubricated units must be
mounted on horizontal surfaces. Where they are
mounted on inclined surfaces, some modifications may
be
Specify mounting plane inclination at time
of ordering.
2. Accurate Alignment
Where the reducer is connected to the motor and the
driven machine through couplings, align the shafts
accuratelv. Where the reducer is connected through V
pulleys sprockets, insure that the belts or are
neither too tight nor too slack.
3. Overhung Load Positions
Overhung loads should be located as close to the
bearing as possible. (See the
6000 Series
Catalog page E-8.)
4. Foundations
Foundations must be rugged enough to withstand shock
and stress applied from the load side through the
reducer.
5. Secure Housing
Where the reduction units are operated under conditions
of vibration
frequent starts and stops, is
recommended to secure them on their mounting
surfaces by inserting dowel
into the knock-holes
provided on the foot of the casing. This will insure that
bending or shearing forces are reduced on the mounting
bolts. Pins must be securely inserted, particularly when
the units are to be operated under conditions of severe
recurrent peak loads.
6. Mounting Accessibility
The reduction units must be mounted in locations with
easy accessibility for lubrication maintenance purposes.
7. Ventilation
When the Speed Reducer is mounted in a
enclosure, be sure that adeauate ventilation is
provided.
