REINTJES marine reverse-reduction gearbox series:

LAF 4555 K51 4.136:1
Hydraulically operated with built-in thrust bearing, the spur wheels are helically toothed, case hardened, and
tooth flank ground, with oil pump, control valve, oil filter and heat exchanger. The gearbox shafts are supported
in roller bearings.
Design of the power transmission system

The gear size was designed under the condition that a highly flexible coupling is fitted between engine and
gearbox.
When selecting a torsionally flexible coupling we recommend to keep the operating speed range of the plant
free from torsionally critical speeds.
The alternating torque in the toothing of the loaded gears is limited to max. 30% of the respective nominal
torque.
For the unloaded gears the admissible alternating torque in the toothing is 20% of the respective nominal
torque.
If the above mentioned limiting values are exceeded it is necessary to check with REINTJES.
Shaft lines
For shaft lines coupled to the input shaft or output shaft of the gearbox we strongly recommend to carry out a
whirling calculation. For propeller shafts we additionally recommend an axial vibration calculation.
The results of whirling calculation and torsional vibration calculation are to be carefully counterchecked for
possible interference in order to prevent the mutual excitation of torsional and whirling vibration.
Sense of Rotation
work no. K85692
sense of rotation input side = ccw
sense of rotation output side = cw
Seen from the propeller to engine in direction of travel AHEAD.
The gears must run in the above mentioned direction of rotation only.
In case of alteration of rotation please consult REINTJES.
Engaging Speed
Engaging speed of the gearbox:
min. 360 rpm max. 420 rpm

Order no. 10205
Gearbox engagement will principally be effected at engine idle speed. If engagement at a higher speed is
requested, we require specific instruction and the following data which are necessary for checking the clutch:
- mass moment of inertia J (kgm²) of propeller shaft system and propeller (in water).
- break-away torque of the propeller shaft system
- propeller torque at engaging speed.
Stop manoeuvre with repeated engagement

If, during a stop manoeuvre, the engagement process is interrupted by the opening of the clutch "ASTERN", a
time delay via the ship controls prior to re-engagement of the "ASTERN" clutch must be provided for. Please
contact REINTJES for more details.
The corresponding technical installation in the ship controls must be considered. This is not included in the
gearbox scope of supply.
Gearbox Connections
Engine side Connection
Free-standing design, free tapered shaft end on engine side
according to drawing: 0-406-47302 G
Oil Cooling
Water Cooling
With sea water resistant heat exchanger, including connecting flanges.
Tube bundle CuNi 10 FE
heat to be dissipated 55 kW
Cooling water inlet temperature: max. 38°C

The cooling water sockets can reciprocally be used for inlet, outlet respectively.
2 compensators per heat exchanger are included in REINTJES scope of supply and are mounted on the heat
exchanger.
Gearbox Control
Electrically actuated control valve, axial slide execution, spring returned.
Operating voltage : 24 V DC
Capacity : 41 W
Actuation duration : 100 %
STOP- position power less
In the event of power failure the valve will return to neutral position. It is equipped with a manual emergency
control.
Installation Instructions
When installing the gearbox it is essential to ensure that sufficient free space is provided for subsequent
maintenance work.
Inclination
Athwartships static = 15 ° dynamic = 25 °
Fore-and-aft static = 15 ° dynamic = 15 °
Page 3 / 5
Order no. 10205
For higher inclination angles it is necessary to check back with REINTJES.
Arrangement of the Propulsion System

The propulsion system components associated with the gearbox must be arranged so that the gearbox is
subject to minimal additional forces which may occur due to operating conditions or flexing of the ship's hull.
Fitting Bolts or Collision Chocks

The gearbox must be prevented from moving on its foundation by the use of fitting bolts or collision chocks.
Cast Resin - Foundation Connections

Collision chocks must be provided if cast resin is to be poured under the gearbox support. (Load values for the
layout of foundation bolts can be supplied by REINTJES.)
Before tightening the gearbox foundation bolts the alignment bolts must be screwed back out of contact with the
top plate.
Alignment using cast resin must only be undertaken by recognised companies who specialise in this work and
can carry out the necessary technical calculations.
Such alignment using cast resin is subject to the approval procedures of the classification societies.
Some gearboxes with transverse foundation must not have collision chocks fitted on mounting brackets to
absorb the propeller thrust.
Further Guidelines and Instructions

For the installation and alignment of the gearbox it is necessary to observe the guidelines and instructions given
in the operating description (BV2123) "Installation and alignment" and in the gearbox installation drawing
attached to consignment as well as in the operating manual.
We cannot be held responsible for costs arising from non-compliance with our recommendations.

Observe when selecting oil for use in REINTJES gearboxes:

• If the oil temperature is lower than
+ 10 °C / 50 °F (SAE 30)
+ 15 °C / 59 °F (SAE 40)
a sump heating installation is required (special equipment must be fitted to
the gearbox).
• Lubricants approved by REINTJES meet all operational requirements and
need no further additives. Further additives may even be harmful.
• Observe the manufacturer's safety data sheet for safely handling the lubri-
cant.
Observe when changing oil:
• Observe the oil change intervals and oil analysis intervals specified in the op-
erating manual.
• Replace filter elements when changing oil. Clean the venting filter thoroughly.
Carry out a first check for contamination approx. 12 hours after commission-
ing.
• The oil level must be between the dipstick markings. The operating oil vol-
ume indicated on the type plate or the drawing of installation is a reference
value.
• For flushing and cleaning of the gearbox use the operating oil. Remove
cleaning oil from gearbox, oil filter and heat exchanger as thoroughly as pos-
sible.
• The gearbox is filled with VCI preservation oil when delivered. When the
gearbox is put into operation, drain the VCI preservation oil and fill in operat-
ing oil. Any small amount of VCI preservation oil remaining may be mixed
with the operating oil.

1.1 Personnel qualification
Carry out work on the gearbox only if you have the required technical know-how.
Certain work requires special qualifications:
• qualification in handling transport aids and lifting equipment when the gear-
box is to be transported or lifted
• qualified mechanic for all mechanical work
• qualified electrician for all work on electrical components
• knowledge of the necessary protective devices, safety measures, applicable
rules, safety regulations, and operating conditions
Please contact REINTJES service, if:
• you do not have the qualifications stated above,
• you are unsure how to carry out certain work,
• the gearbox appears to require work not described in this manual.
1.2 Safety measures for handling lubricants

The lubricants used with the gearbox are flammable. Therefore:
• Keep open flames away from the gearbox.
• Do not smoke.
• Immediately remove any lubricant residues completely, including rags soiled
with oil.
• Never weld pipes carrying lubricants.
• Never replace steel pipes with copper pipes.
Pipes and hoses on the gearbox are under pressure when the gearbox is in
operation. During disassembly and when pipes and/or hoses are damaged, lu-
bricants such as operating oil can escape abruptly. This can cause serious inju-
ries. Therefore:
• Before disassembling pipes and/or hoses, first relieve the pressure in air, oil
or water circulating systems.
• Avoid damaging pipes and/or hoses during all work.
• Check all pipes and hoses daily for wear and/or damage.
• Check that all pipes and hoses have been laid, supported and fastened in ac-
cordance with technical standards.
• Never straighten or bend any pipes that are under pressure during operation.
• Immediately replace any damaged pipes or hoses.
• Replace hoses no later than after 5 years.
• Keep acids and other corrosive or caustic liquids away from hoses.
Lubricants are poisonous and harmful to the environment. Therefore:
• Store all lubricants in appropriately labelled containers.
• Dispose of lubricants and disassembled parts such as filter elements as re-
cyclable substances or as hazardous waste.
• Collect drained oil in a used oil container.
• Collect any rags soiled with oil in suitable containers.

WARNING!
The gearbox can fall over, if it is placed upon loose soil.
Persons hit by the gearbox can suffer life-threatening injuries and can be killed.
 Always place the gearbox on a sufficiently solid ground.
WARNING!
For gearboxes with oil pan (marked with a label as shown):
The oil pan cannot support the gearbox weight. If the gearbox is placed di-
rectly upon the oil pan, the oil pan will be heavily damaged. Then the gear-
box can fall over.
 Never place the gearbox directly upon the oil pan.
 Leave the gearbox in the transport frame until it is placed on the foundation.
 If the gearbox must be placed outside the transport frame, always support the
gearbox under the foundation mountings. The foundation mountings are
marked in the drawing of installation.
NOTICE
Inappropriate storage can cause damage to the gearbox due to corrosion.
 Keep to a minimum the period of time between removing the original pack-
aging and commissioning the gearbox.
 During this period, protect the gearbox against any harmful environmental ef-
fects and external influences.
 Observe the information in chapter 3.3 Measures against corrosion during
storage.
NOTICE
Extreme temperature variations and water, e.g. rain, can damage the gearbox.
 Store the gearbox preferably in enclosed areas.
These factors have a positive effect on the corrosion protection of the gearbox:
• high-quality packaging including an appropriate amount of drying agent
• storage in enclosed rooms
• low humidity
• constant ambient temperature
These factors have a negative effect on the corrosion protection of the gearbox:
• damaged packaging
• storage in open areas
• high humidity, salt-containing or contaminated air
• repeatedly high temperature variations
Additional steps are required if:
• premature opening of the gearbox cannot be avoided,
• the gearbox is stored for a longer period or under conditions other than those
stipulated, see chapter 3.3 Measures against corrosion during storage.

BV1945
Preservation
3 Preservation
3.1 General information
Initial preservation is carried out at REINTJES as agreed.
After trial run, the gearbox is preserved as specified in the order.
Spare parts or loose parts supplied with the gearbox are treated using the
preservation procedures as agreed.
Preservation for dispatch is designed for a limited period of time and for
certain storage conditions.
The scope and effectiveness of these preservation measures depend on:
• storage conditions
• storage duration
• packaging
• individual customer requirements
3.2 Initial preservation

During the trial run, the gearbox is run with corrosion protection oil.
In addition, following the trial run, the gearbox is filled with VCI preservation oil
(VCI = volatile corrosion inhibitor).
VCI agents evaporate very slowly and deposit themselves on the unpainted met-
al surfaces within the closed gearbox. Due to their polarity, they interrupt electro-
chemical reactions resulting in corrosion.
In order to ensure that these VCI preservation oils retain their effectiveness for
as long as possible, all gearbox openings are closed.
The shafts are sealed using acid-free grease.
Externally exposed, unpainted metal parts are protected using a wax-like preser-
vation substance. If specified in the order, the gearbox is additionally protected
against corrosion by means of moisture-proof packaging or special marine pack-
aging.
3.3 Measures against corrosion during storage

The following assumes that the storage conditions described in chapter 2 Stor-
age are observed.
Here, merely general measures against corrosion can be described. If you are
not certain whether protection is appropriate for your particular case of applica-
tion, please contact REINTJES service.
As a result of damage to the packaging, water and harmful environmental influ-
ences can have a direct effect on the gearbox. Excessive moisture can penetrate
the inner space of the gearbox as a result of variations in temperature.
Checks during storage

1. Upon receipt, immediately inspect the gearbox packaging for any damage in-
curred in transport.
2. Regularly check the outside packaging. In case of doubt, contact a specialist
company for packaging.
3. In case of corrosion damage, immediately contact REINTJES service.

box is particularly high.
 Observe the information in chapter 3.4 Protection measures after removing
the packaging.
3.4 Protection measures after removing the packaging

1. Protect the gearbox as well as possible against water, dust, and harmful en-
vironmental influences. For instance, when covering the gearbox with tarpau-
lins, leave some space between them and the gearbox. They should not act
as a vapour seal.
2. Protect the gearbox against damage when work is carried out in the vicinity
of the gearbox, especially when the gearbox is already installed in the engine
room.
a. Protect the gearbox from mechanical damage which can be caused e.g.
by objects falling onto the gearbox or bouncing against it.

BV1945
Preservation
WARNING!
The gearbox surface is uneven and auxiliary components cannot support
the weight of a person. If persons use the gearbox as a step or as a climb-
ing aid, they can fall down.
Danger of injury!
 Never use the gearbox as a step or as a climbing aid.
 When carrying out work above your head, use appropriate and safe climbing
aids and working platforms.
b. Make sure not to damage any cabling and connections.

c. Protect the gearbox from flying sparks when any welding or grinding work
is carried out in the vicinity of the gearbox. Avoid passages of electric cur-
rent through the gearbox especially during welding work.
3. Protect electric components such as the terminal box and switching cabinets
from dust and humidity, e.g. by using suitable films and drying agents.
4. Regularly inspect the gearbox for external corrosion damage. During inspec-
tion, check to ensure that shaft ends are preserved and sealed. Repair seals
using acid-free grease. For information on inspection intervals: see chapter
3.3 Measures against corrosion during storage.
5. Regularly refill the gearbox with VCI preservation oil.
Refilling intervals
1. Refill with VCI preservation oil at least 8 weeks after removing the packaging.
2. Document date and amount of refill.
For further refills the following refilling intervals apply:
Refilling intervals Volume to be filled

European climate zone: every 12 weeks 1 % of the gearbox oil volume, at least
Tropical climate zone: every 8 weeks 1 litre
Tab. 3-2: Refilling intervals for VCI preservation oil
You will find the operating oil volume on the type plate.
Inappropriate storage conditions can evoke shorter refilling intervals.
3.5 Measures against corrosion after opening the gearbox

The VCI agents of the preservation oil escape when the gearbox is opened.
1. Refill the gearbox with VCI preservation oil. For information on volume and
refilling intervals: see chapter 3.4 Protection measures after removing the
packaging.
2. Important: Afterwards, close the gearbox air-tight.
A protective inhibitor atmosphere may not be able to form again after reclosing.
This depends on:
• the concentration of VCI agents,
• the amount of moisture that has entered,
• how well the gearbox is resealed afterwards.

BV1945
Preservation
3.6 Measures during commissioning

When the gearbox is put into operation, drain the VCI preservation oil and fill in
operating oil.
1. Observe the operating manual of the gearbox in this case.
2. Also remove the preservation substance at the shaft ends or flanges.
3.7 Measures against corrosion during long interruptions in

operation
If the operation of the vessel or gearbox is to be interrupted for several weeks,
measures are required to protect the gearbox against corrosion.

Introduction
1.2.2 Safely lifting the gearbox
WARNING!
The gearbox can fall over if it is transported inappropriately or with unsuit-
able transport aids, lifting equipment and/or slings.
 Make sure that transport is carried out only by persons competent in the use
of transport aids and lifting equipment.
 Before every transport of the gearbox, make sure that nobody is in the gear-
boxʼs hazardous area.
 Use only transport aids, lifting equipment, and slings that are approved for
the anticipated load and in perfect technical condition. The gearbox weight
(without operating oil but including special accessories) is stamped on the
type plate.
 Transport aids and lifting equipment must be designed to be able to safely
hoist the load, hold it and set it down again.
 Observe the regulations and instructions provided by the manufacturer of the
transport aids, lifting equipment, and slings.
 Use only the lifting eyes intended for lifting the gearbox. The lifting eyes are
marked with signs and are indicated in the drawing of installation. Lifting eyes
on components, e.g. motor, are only intended for lifting these components
and not for lifting the whole gearbox.
 Secure slings to all of the eyebolts intended for this purpose using shackles.
 Never put slings around shaft ends, pipes, or other externally mounted parts.
 Make sure that the sling angle does not exceed 45° from the perpendicular.
Use a traversing bridge if necessary.
NOTICE
Danger of damage to the gearbox!
 When transporting the gearbox, make sure that you do not damage its
packaging, if further storage is intended afterward.
 Avoid slings pressing against pipes or externally mounted parts. Use a tra-
versing bridge if necessary.

2.4 Alignment
2.4.1 General information

1. Determine the permissible horizontal and vertical GAP and SAG values for
all shaft connections. Take into account the technical information (alignment
calculation, thermal expansion and manufacturer's information) applying to
the units to be connected.
2. Consider the thermal expansion of engine, gearbox, auxiliary units, and foun-
dation at operating temperature.
3. Take into account possible engine displacement due to torque influence.
4. In addition, take into account thermosetting effects for the cast resin founda-
tion. Request detailed information on this from the cast resin manufacturer.
5. For gearboxes with bell housing please note that the alignment and the foun-
dation of the engine directly affect the output side of the gearbox.
6. Carry out the alignment work only after the vessel is afloat with absolutely no
ground contact with the sea bed.
7. The vessel should be equipped as far as possible. Missing heavy equipment,
e.g. winches, cranes, must be duly considered.
8. Carry out the alignment work in the early morning. Direct sunlight can influ-
ence the alignment result.
The best precondition for a trouble-free gearbox operation is a precise alignment
of:
• the gearbox output shaft with the propeller shaft
• the gearbox input shaft with the engine shaft
• the auxiliary drive shafts with the connected auxiliary units (if present)
If torsionally flexible couplings are used, precise alignment with the engine will
also be required. Any misalignment will have negative effects on the service life
of gearbox and auxiliary units.
REINTJES will only recognize the alignment as complete, if you have completely
documented the alignment of propeller shaft to gearbox, gearbox to engine, and
gearbox to connected auxiliary units.

The process of alignment is basically identical for rigid and resilient fastening.
The difference is that with a rigid fastening the gearbox foot is fixed permanently
to the gearbox housing. With a resilient fastening the gearbox can be removed
from the base plate. It is possible to remove the gearbox from the base plate even
after the base plate is aligned and fixed with cast resin. The gearbox can then be
put back without another alignment.
For connecting the propeller shaft line with the gearbox, the propeller shaft and/
or the intermediate shaft must be in the static operating position.
That means:
 the propeller shaft and the intermediate shaft are in their bearings
 the propeller is mounted
 the intermediate shaft flanges are connected (if present)
 the flange facing the gearbox is in the alignment position (if necessary)

Work steps:
1. Screw the alignment screws into the gearbox foot.
2. Fix the alignment screws for horizontal alignment to the foundation.
3. With the alignment screws, align the gearbox vertically and horizontally in
longitudinal and transverse directions with the propeller flange, according to
the specified data.
With a resilient fastening ensure that there is no distortion in the elastic elements
during the horizontal alignment. The base plates must be evenly displaced on
both sides of the gearbox.
4. Align the gearbox in accordance with the required GAP and SAG values.
5. With approved methods (gauges, laser), measure the vertical and horizontal
GAP value 4 as well as the vertical and horizontal SAG value 3 between the
gearbox flange 2 and the counter flange on the propeller side 1.
6. Set the horizontal GAP and SAG values to zero.

7. Observe the permissible tolerances:
SAG: Radial misalignment 0.05 mm (centreline run-out 0.025 mm)
GAP: Angular misalignment 0.1 mm/m
8. Document the GAP and SAG values.
9. Fix the gearbox to the foundation, see chapter 2.4.3 Foundation.
10. Check the GAP and SAG values.
11. Connect the propeller shaft to the gearbox output shaft after the gearbox is
firmly fixed to the foundation.

2.4.3.5 Seat chocks
Cast resin seat chocks

1. Have the design, calculation and execution of the cast resin foundation car-
ried out by a company which is authorized for cast resin foundations.
This company must also submit the necessary drawings, calculations and
material data to the classification societies for approval.
2. When designing the foundation, note that the maximum seating stress values
between the gearbox and the cast resin seat chock indicated by the manu-
facturer must not be exceeded.
3. Observe the height of cast resin seat chocks:
The height must be normally 40 - 80 mm. The height of the cast resin seat
chock must always be smaller than its width and length. Also observe the in-
structions of the cast resin manufacturer
4. Ensure that cast resin seat chocks will only be stressed after thermosetting
is completed.
5. Loosen the alignment screws before tightening the foundation bolts.
2.4.3.6 Screw joints
General information
The gearbox foundation bolts are fitting bolts and/or through bolts.
1. Calculate the foundation bolts according to the state of the art. Under all op-
erating conditions, the preload of the bolts must be higher than the workload.
2. Consider for the bolt elongation that the connection cannot be loosened by
settlement effects. We recommend an elongation of the screws of > 0.17 mm
for cast resin seat chocks and of > 0.25 mm for metal seat chocks.
3. Any lifting of the gearbox under dynamic stress must be excluded.
4. Contact REINTJES service for information on the working forces. When cal-
culating the bolts, also consider external forces e.g. added by mounted com-
ponents that have an impact on the gearbox.
5. Secure all screw joints against loosening.
6. The seats of bolt heads and nuts have to be plane-parallel. Ensure that the
seat under the bolt head and nut is sufficiently dimensioned in order not to
exceed the permissible surface pressure.
