Gear Reducer Breather
CAUTION
•
To avoid the risk of having high pressure build-up in the reducer (gear box), a reducer breather should
be installed.
•
Failure to install the breather may lead to oil leakage from the seal, which will damage the reducer.
All Gear Head operators are supplied with a Reducer Breather. The breather is not mounted at the factory in order to
avoid leakage during handling of the reducer.
