5.2.2.1 Mounting and withdrawing output transmission elements
Withdrawing output transmission elements
Mounting output transmission elements
● When mounting output transmission elements (coupling, gear wheel, belt pulley etc. ) use
the thread at the shaft end.
If possible, heat up the output transmission elements as required.
● Use a suitable device when withdrawing output elements.
● When mounting or withdrawing, do not apply any blows, for example with a hammer or
similar tool, to the parts to be mounted or withdrawn.
● Only transfer radial or axial forces specified in the catalog to the motor bearings via the
shaft extension.
5.3 Alignment and fastening
Observe the following when aligning and mounting:
● Ensure a flat and uniform contact surface for foot and flange mounting.
● When mounting on the wall, support the machine from below, e.g. using a bracket, or bolt
it.
● Precisely align the machine when couplings are used.
● Ensure that the mounting surfaces are clean and free of any dirt.
● Remove any anti-corrosion protection using white spirit.
● Avoid installation-related resonances with the rotating frequency and twice the line
frequency.
