TO DISASSEMBLE:
1. Loosen and remove all the screws and place
them in the holes of the bushing.
2. Tighten the screws alternatively till the hub’s
grip on the bushing is lessened .The inner bore
of the bushing can now be slid off the shaft.
3. Remove the bushing from the shaft.

Directions for Installation:
When installing couplings,the shaft face should be
parallel to the gear face.There should be a slot
between the two gears or enough external length
for installation and also radial eccentricity.Angular

Note: Classifications of Working Machines
I. Torque is changing slightly. For example, motor generator, small type of
ventilators, and small types of centrifugals.
II. Torque changing slightly. For example, turbo compressors, wood lathe and
conveyors.
III. Torque change normal. For example, mixer, boast pump, flywheel, and
reciprocation compressor.
IV. Normal torque change and normal impact load. For example: weaving
machines and cement mixers.
V. Large torque change and heavy impact load. For example, printing machines,
crane, and stone crushers.
VI. Torque change largely with serious impact loads. For example, rolling mills,
and heavy types of cogging mills.
