Warning
1. Disconnect power prior to any maintenance and do not bypass or inactivate any safety or protective device. Lock out and tag the power supply to prevent unexpected application of power.
2. Routinely inspect mounting bolts, couplers,or other power transmitting devices to ensure all parts are firmly anchored. Keep shafts and vent plugs (when included) clean to prevent foreign particles from entering seals or housing. Inspect daily for any oil leaks and any unusual noises. Inspect weekly for end play in shafts. Inspect belt drive tension after the first ten hours of operation and periodically thereafter.
3. Check the oil level every 24 hours of operation. In the beginning to change the oil when the right angle gearbox has been in service for two weeks or 100 to 200 hours. Routine oil change intervals will vary for each particular installation depending on the severity of the environment. Normal changes should occur half to 1year or 1000 to 2000 hours of operation. The longest life at continuous service will be realized when the oil temperature does not exceed +85 deg. C. For oil substitutions, or for high input speeds, contact Jacton engineers.
4. Do not change or add oil while the right angle gearbox is running. Damage to the right angle gearbox or injury to personnel may result. The right angle gearbox housing, oil, plugs, and associated components may reach high temperatures and cause severe burns. Use extreme care when servicing the right angle gearbox.
