2. General notes
2.1 Introduction
These instructions are an integral part of the delivery of the coupling and must be kept in its vicinity for
reference at all times.
All persons carrying out work on the coupling must have read and understood these
instructions and must adhere to them. Flender accepts no responsibility for damage
or disruption caused by disregard of these instructions.
The "FLENDER coupling" described in these instructions has been developed for stationary use in
general engineering applications. The coupling serves to transmit power (torque and speed) between two
shafts or flanges connected by this coupling.
The coupling has been manufactured in accordance with the state of the art and is delivered in a condition
for safe and reliable use. Any changes on the part of the user which may affect safety and reliability are
prohibited. This applies equally to safety features designed to prevent accidental contact.
The coupling complies with the requirements in Directive 2014/34/EU.
The coupling must be used and operated strictly in accordance with the conditions laid down in the contract
governing performance and supply.
The coupling is designed only for the application described on the order­specific drawing of the coupling.
Other operating conditions are regarded as incorrect and must be contractually agreed.
For any damage resulting therefrom only the user or operator of the machine or plant is responsible.
The coupling described in these instructions reflects the state of technical development at the time these
instructions went to print.
In the interest of technical progress we reserve the right to make changes to the individual assemblies and
accessories which we regard as necessary to preserve their essential characteristics and improve their
efficiency and safety.
