LUBRICATION<br />
LUBRICANT AND QUANTITY<br />
Unit sizes C03, 04, 05 and 06 are factory filled with a grade 6G lubricant.<br />
Unit sizes C07, 08, 09 and 10 will be despatched without oil.<br />
Note: Catalogue ratings are based on the polyglycol<br />
range of synthetic oils recommended on this page.<br />
The use of mineral or special oils will require a<br />
derate, please contact our Application Engineers.<br />
The oil grade is stamped on the name plate and the oil level should be established by filling until the oil escapes via the level plug,<br />
The grade and level are determined from the operating speed of the gear unit and the ambient temperature range, which if not given when<br />
ordering will be assumed to be 1450 rev / min input and ambient temperature range 0 to 95F. Oil grades and oil level should always be<br />
checked before installation, Consult the Installation and Maintenance instructions provided with the gear unit.<br />
To determine the oil grade refer to table 1, and then refer to the Installation and Maintenance instructions to select an approved lubricant<br />
To determine the oil capacity refer to appropriate table 2 or 3. Oil capacities are only approximate and units should be filled until oil escapes<br />
from the level plug holes. Do not overfill as excess will cause overheating and leakage.<br />
Always fill with correct lubricant as marked on the nameplate. Never mix lubricant grades.<br />
See Installation and Maintenance instructions for lists of approved lubricants within the grades.<br />
Unless stated with the order these operating conditions will be assumed<br />
