9.1 General notes about the maintenance and inspection of universal joint
shafts
The user or operator must heed the legal safety regulations
and take suitable preventative measures before starting
maintenance work.
The universal joint shafts may not be separated at the key
profile and exchanged for one another since the balancing
quality will be impermissibly compromised.
Flange bolted connections must be checked for tightness and
if necessary re-tightened to the prescribed torque.
To prevent impairment the balancing quality as well as a
source of ignition, dirt accumulations must be removed
periodically.
If universal joint shafts are cleaned with a high-pressure
device, seal elements may not be cleaned with the direct
stream. A re-lubrication after cleaning is recommended.
Universal joint shafts will be delivered painted on request. For
re-working of the painting, we recommend our standards.
Please contact us about this.
During color spraying of the universal joint shaft, attention
must be paid that the area where the profile or the seal
slides, is protected against color application. The same
applies for the grease/lubrication nipple, the ventilation
valves, the contact surfaces of the bolted connections, the
flange and the centering surfaces.
