Improper use can damage the gear unit. Be sure to take the following precautions:
• When removing a gear unit that is not only supported at the hollow shaft, but also at the
housing, ensure that the specied forcing pressures are not exceeded.
• Always check the hollow shaft bearings for damage before reattaching the gear unit to the
machine shaft.
• When using jacking screws or screw spindles, to avoid the risk of corrosion, round-o and
grease the end of the thread that presses against the driven machine.
