Fault
Possible cause
Solution
Loss of lubricant
Lubricant quantity too high.
Wipe off discharged lubricant and
continue to watch the gearhead.
Lubricant discharge should stop after a
short time.
Seals not tight.
Consult our Customer Service
department.
Tbl-3: Malfunctions
Pressurized air can damage the gearhead seals.
Do not use pressurized air to clean the gearhead.
Directly sprayed cleaning agents can alter the frictional values of the
clamping hub.
Only spray cleaning agents onto a cloth for wiping off the clamping hub.
In rare situations, for a gearhead with grease lubrication (see
identification plate), a leak can occur at the drive (seeping).
To avoid seeping, we recommend that between the following surfaces:
- Adapter plate and drive housing (gearhead) as well as
- Adapter plate and motor
be sealed with a surface sealing adhesive (e.g. Loctite
®
573 or 574).
For more information, please contact our Customer Service department.
Clean/De-grease the following components with a
clean and lint-free cloth and grease-dissolving,
non-aggressive detergent:
- All fitting surfaces to neighboring components
- Centering
- The motor shaft
- the inner diameter of the plug receptacle
- The bushing inside and out
- the toothed belt pulley (only applies to LPB
