Important prohibitions:

Do not use high-pressure water guns to flush the box body;

It is strictly prohibited to use the gearbox body as a welding grounding electrode, as it may damage the gears and bearings;

Before maintenance work, the power must be cut off and locked with a tag to prevent accidental start-up;

During operation, the surface of the shell may become hot, posing a risk of burns; Protective gear must be worn for hot oil discharge;

Equipped with a pressure relief valve vent plug, wait for the entire machine to cool down before disassembly.

Special high-risk working conditions (suspension installation, motor fully supported by reducer, downward arrangement of expansion disk output shaft) require the addition of safety chains and restraint protection devices.

The manufacturer of the complete machine needs to incorporate the key points of this manual into the overall operation manual.
