4.9.6 Torque arms with shaft-mounted gearboxes
4.9.6.1 General information regarding torque arms
Torque arms can absorb the reaction torque and the weight force of the gearbox.
Worn or irreparably damaged rubber elements will not function properly.
Impacts can cause sparks.
Damaged rubber elements must be replaced immediately.
Dangerous transient torques due to excess backlash
Take care to prevent the torque arm causing excessive constraining forces, e.g. due to the
driven shaft running out-of-true.
Impermissible gearbox loading caused by incorrect mounting
Do not tension torque arms when mounting.
Damage to the rubber elements caused by solvent
Solvents, oils, greases, and fuels damage rubber elements.
Avoid contact at all times.
