Ever-Flex Coupling Installation
1.
Select the correct Ever-Flex
™
coupling and adapter plate from
page 8.
2.
Attach the adapter plate to
the Torq/Gard
®
clutch mounting
lugs with three (3) allen flat head
capscrews supplied with the
adapter.
3.
Mount the Ever-Flex half
coupling on the adapter plate with
the eight (8) hex head capscrews supplied with the adapter
plate.
(Quantity 10 hex head capscrews are supplied with adapter plate
400CAP9 and 800CAP10.)
Mounting the Torq/Gard Clutch
The Torq/Gard clutch hub is
machined to its maximum bore
diameter. Shafts smaller than
the maximum diameter are
accommodated with standard
Browning
®
Torq/Gard
®
bushing kits
as shown on page 6. The bushing
kits are complete with bushing, key
and shaft setscrews.
Note:
Six (6) setscrews are supplied
in four (4) lengths.
WARNING!
The correct length setscrews must be used as
the clutch will not release if the setscrews extend beyond the
hub and hit the adapter mounting lugs.
The Torq/Gard clutch can be shaft mounted from the adapter or
detector end of the hub. The required shaft set screw lengths vary
depending on the bushing selected. They will also vary in length
if used on the detector end in conjunction with the detector
mechanism.
Tables B, C and D include all set screw combinations for any
bushing or mounting option.
Example 1:
A TGC60 clutch requires a .750 inch diameter shaft mounted on
the adapter end.
Selection:
A Browning 60BU012 bushing kit is chosen from page
6.
The correct setscrews from Table B (adapter end):
Qty. 2 .190-32UNF-2A x .50 Long
Qty. 1 .190-32UNF-2A x .19 Long (over key)
Example 2:
A TGC60 clutch requires a .750 inch diameter shaft mounted on
the detector end with the detector mechanism.
The correct setscrews from Table B (detector end):
Qty. 2 .190-32UNF-2A x .75 Long
Qty. 1 .190-32UNF-2A x .38 Long (over key)

C5 - anti-seize lubricant is
recommended to ease assembly of the bushing to the shaft and
the clutch to the bushing.
