DANGER
Danger due to bursting of the coupling
If you do not observe the information stipulated here regarding assembly, this can lead to
bursting of the coupling during operation. There is a risk of fatal injury from flying frag-
ments. If a coupling bursts in an area at risk of explosion, then this can result in an explo-
sion.
• Carefully observe all of the specifications relating to assembly.
Notes regarding assembly of the coupling
• Only use undamaged components when assembling the coupling.
• Follow the assembly sequence.
• Please ensure that there is sufficient space at the assembly location and that the loca-
tion is tidy and clean in order to be able to assemble and maintain the coupling without
any risk.
• If a dimension drawing has been created for the coupling, please observe the informa-
tion it contains as a matter of priority.
5.1 Preparatory work5.1 Preparatory work

• Mill the finished bore (Page26)
• Mill the parallel keyway (Page27)
• Machining an axial locking mechanism (Page27)
• Balancing the coupling (Page30)
