How do I correct misaligned
shafts? [photo]
Use a flexible coupling
to compensate for slight misalignment
Recommended coupling: FC Series type
How do I check to see if my
shafts are aligned correctly? [photo]
Use a metal straight edge or laser
sighting equipment to check for shaft alignment
How would I mount auxiliary
drive components on output shaft? [photo]
Face hubs away from the housing;
mount components as close to reducer housing as possible
to minimize effects of over hung load. Avoid force fits
that might damage bearings or gears.
How would I know if the reducer
is worn out? [photo]
Check and record backlash at installation
and check at regular intervals. Measure the rotary movement
of the output shaft
rotating alternately clockwise and counterclockwise at
a 3 inch radius while holding the input shaft stationery.
