8.2 Checking and changing lubricants<br />

8.2.11 Recommended lubricants<br />

DANGER<br />

The lubricants used have not been approved to USDA -H1/-H2 (United States Department<br />

of Agriculture). They are not or only conditionally approved <strong>for</strong> use in the foodstuffs or<br />

pharmaceutical industry. If lubricants with USDA -H1/-H2 approval are required, please<br />

contact Technical Support.<br />

CAUTION<br />

If you are working outside the temperature range specified in the Flender Operating<br />

Instructions BA 7300, please contact Technical Support <strong>for</strong> advice on which oil to use.<br />

If the housing temperature exceeds a value of +80 °C, please contact Technical Support.<br />

Note<br />

The lubricants used are not or are only conditionally biodegradable. If lubricants classified as<br />

biodegradable are required, please contact Technical Support.<br />

Note<br />

These recommendations are not a guarantee of the quality of the lubricant provided by your<br />

supplier. All lubricant manufacturers are responsible <strong>for</strong> the quality of their own products.<br />

The oil selected <strong>for</strong> use in the gearbox must be of the viscosity stated on the rating plate<br />

(ISO VG class). The viscosity class indicated applies <strong>for</strong> the contractually agreed operating<br />

conditions.<br />

In the case of different operating conditions, please contact Technical Support.<br />

The lubricants suitable <strong>for</strong> use in the gearbox are listed in the Operating Instructions<br />

BA 7300 "<strong>Gearbox</strong> Lubrication". We are familiar with the composition of these lubricants and,<br />

as far as we are currently aware, they possess state-of-the-art properties with regard to loadbearing<br />

capacity, corrosion resistance (FZG test DIN 51354 = <strong>for</strong>ce level > 12), resistance to<br />

gray staining and compatibility with seals and interior paint finishes as necessary <strong>for</strong> the type<br />

of gearbox concerned. There<strong>for</strong>e, we advise our customers to select one of the lubricants<br />

listed in this table, taking into account the VG class specified on the rating plate.<br />

If, following agreement, gearboxes are filled at the factory with special lubricants <strong>for</strong> the<br />

special applications referred to above, this is shown on the rating plate.<br />

The warranty conditions are valid only <strong>for</strong> the lubricants listed in the Flender Operating<br />

Instructions BA 7300. If you decide to use a different oil, you are responsible <strong>for</strong> the technical<br />

suitability of the lubricant.<br />
