2. MOUNTING
Under no circumstances must the component be driven into place with a hammer.
The gearbox must be mounted on a rigid flat support, free from vibrations and able to withstand the
reaction torque. Ensure good alignment of the shafts.
Moreover, the mounting surface of the unit must be either the differential housing or the bevel box
housing but never both surfaces.
The keys delivered with the unit must be hand fitted to the keyway during the mounting process to
minimize backlash between the key and keyway.
3. MOUNTING OF ANCILLARY ITEMS
Remove grease from the shaft ends, before assembly, using a suitable solvent.
Important:
Ensure that the solvent does not come into contact with the oil seals and cannot seep
into the bearing housings.
The shaft ends are tapped for the mounting of ancillary components. Preheating the component to
be mounted will simplify the process. We recommend the use of an anti fretting-corrosion grease
type KLÜBER-PASTE-46-MR401
.
When using a coupling, we recommend a flexible coupling as opposed to a rigid coupling to
compensate for misalignment.
