•
there are no oil leaks;
•
make sure no radial or axial forces are applied;
•
verify correct unit alignment with the structure;
•
verify motor power connection;
• there are no obstacles that can influence the correct operation of the units;
Start-up and running in:
increase gradually torque and rotation values until max values allowed are achieved.
After starting up
:
•
friction between moving parts must be absent;
•
excessive noise and vibration must be absent;
•
carry out functional tests to verify:
•
correct functioning of the unit;
•
correct functioning of the safety system of the unit;
•
that values functioning are respected.
Brake test:
carry out engage/disengage test to verify correct unlock pressure value and the brake tor-
que value (
correct values are described on the specific external drawing
s).
In case of malfunctioning:
1. interrupt and disable the functioning of the machine,
2. check and verify correct installation,
3. schedule an immediate/anticipated general overhaul of the gearbox un
it.
Before installation
check
and
verify
:
•
motor type and connection;
•
that unit components are not damaged and that the centering parts are not rusty;
•
unit installation diagram;
•
oil level/lubricant and type of lubricant;
• correct plug installation and efficiency;
•
that the reduction gear screws and plugs have been tightened with correct values ;
•
that there are no hazardous atmosphere in the work area.
To guarantee the correct unit
installation
:
•
remove dirt and grease from the unit;
•
lubricate spigots and coupling surfaces;
• centering and fixing the unit without forcing;
•
dents or sparks must not be created/produced;
•
friction between moving parts must be absent;
• install and fix the unit and all components correctly;
•
take care not to deform the contact surfaces.
Installation and start-up must be carried out by qualified, trained and authorised personnel
In case of
malfunctioning
or
failure
