• You install, operate, monitor and maintain the gearbox in accordance with our instructions.
• Only the types of oil listed in the lubricant table are used.
• You comply with the performance ratings and labelling stamped on the type plate.
No modifications may be made to the gearbox unless they have been approved by REINTJES.
REINTJES, as supplier of one of the components of the complete propulsion system, will not
assume responsibility for any problems with vibration resulting from the system as a whole.
REINTJES will not therefore assume any liability for complaints or damage resulting from this
type of vibration.
In any case, a whirling calculation must be done for any shaftlines connected to
the input or output shafts. We additionally recommend having an axial vibration
calculation done for propeller shaftlines. Torsional, axial and whirling can mutually
excite each another. In order to preclude this possibility, the results of the whirling
calculation, axial vibration calculation and torsional vibration calculation should be
compared with each other in order to rule out that any of the vibration types have the
same natural frequencies.

4.3 Preservation
After a run on the test stand, the gearbox is preserved as specified in the order.
Spare parts or loose parts supplied with the shipment are treated using the preservation
procedures stipulated in the contract.
Preservation for dispatch is designed for a limited period of time and for certain storage
conditions.
• Conditions of storage
• Duration of storage
• Packaging
• Individual customer wishes
Volatile corrosion inhibitors are agents that evaporate very slowly and deposit themselves
on the unpainted metal surfaces within the closed gearbox. Due to their polarity, they
interrupt electrochemical reactions resulting in corrosion.
In order to ensure that these volatile corrosion inhibitors retain their effectiveness for
as long as possible, all of the gearbox openings are closed. The shafts are sealed using
an acid-free grease.
Externally exposed, unpainted metal parts are protected using a wax-like preservation
substance. When stipulated in the order, the gearbox is additionally protected against
corrosion by means of moisture-proof packaging or special marine packaging.

General information
The following assumes that the storage conditions described in chapter 4.2 are followed.
Here we can merely describe general measures against corrosion.
If you are not certain whether protection is adequate for your particular case of application,
please consult with REINTJES about the necessary measures.
As a result of damage to packaging, water and harmful environmental influences 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.
Immediately upon receipt of the gearbox, check the packaging for any transport damage.
Inspection intervals:
European climate zone every 4 weeks
Tropical climate zone every 2 weeks
-or better-
Replace the damaged film along with the drying agent.

Description
5 Description
The gearboxes of the WVS model series are reverse-reduction gearboxes with two clutches.
The gear reduction ratios are the same in the Ahead and Astern directions.
Marine gearboxes can be supplied with identical and counter rotation of the input and
output shafts. The thrust bearings built into the gearbox absorb the propeller thrust.
The gearbox has been designed under the assumption that a highly flexible coupling
will be employed between the motor and the gearbox.
The propulsion engine is normally resiliently mounted; the gearbox may be rigidly or
resiliently mounted onto the foundation.
The torsionally flexible coupling used must also be capable of accommodating the axial
misalignment between the engine and gearbox shafts at the specified operating
speeds.
Referenced to the gearbox, the flexibility of the resilient engine mounts must be such
as to allow engine-to-gearbox alignment accuracy which ensures that there is no possibility
of appreciable reactive forces at the bearings of the connected gearbox shafts when
operating temperatures prevail.

If a universal joint shaft is planned between engine and gearbox, ensure that the max.
allowable joint angle is not exceeded and that axial compensation is possible.
The alignment must be carried out especially carefully in order to minimize the forces

A non-filled filter housing creates a pressure loss in the hydraulic system when
changing to the other filter side.
This pressure loss can lead that the diesel engine is shut down by the pressure
switch "oil pressure too low, engine stop".
Wait approx. 30 sec until the first filter side is filled with oil.
Switch to the second filter side with the lever. Leave this side also switched on for
approx. 30 sec. until the complete filter is filled with oil.

During normal operation and at idling speed, you must adhere to these values:
The engaging procedures described below are important in order to safely operate the
entire propulsion system and to avoid any unnecessary wear.
Electronic ship remote controls may be used to automate the procedures described.
This avoids the risk of faulty operation.
It is then possible to optimise the electronic program system during the sea trial.
You must adhere to these steps in engaging when using a manual remote control:
The engine is started, the gearbox control valve is in the NEUTRAL position and the
propeller shaft is stationary or rotating slowly. The engine is running at idling speed.

WVS 2240
Operation
The clutch has been designed and optimised to allow it to be engaged from AHEAD to
ASTERN several times during a stop manoeuvre. Experience reveals that this may become
necessary for stop manoeuvres from high speeds in order to prevent any damage to the diesel
engine.
During a stop manoeuvre the ship's control automatically interrupts engaging procedures in
order to prevent excessive strain on the engine.
For this case, you should provide, in the ship's control, for a period of delay for engaging the
clutch and reversing the direction. (Not supplied with the gearbox)
Please contact REINTJES for more detailed information.
Crash-stop
The object is to stop the ship from a high speed within the shortest possible distance.
!
NOTICE!
During a crash stop manoeuvre the propulsion system is subject to heavier wear and
greater strain due to heat build-up.

!
NOTICE!
In the case of damage, lock the propeller shaft before putting it into trailing mode.
If this is not possible, carefully verify whether trailing mode with the shaft turning
freely might not result in further damage to the gearbox or the propulsion system.
• Due to damage, the ship can no longer be propelled on its own power
• The propulsion system is shut down
• The ship is tugged with external aid
• The propeller shaft turns freely with the water flowing against it
With a standard gearbox, this mode may be prolonged without limitation for up to 6 hours.
If the occasional trailing mode lasts longer than 6 hours:
Start the engine every 6 hours in order to run the gearbox oil pump.
-Or -
Lubricate the gearbox every 6 hours with the aid of the electrical stand-by pump.
In order to ensure that all lubrication points are supplied with oil, run the engine or the stand-
by pump for approx. 5 minutes.

Unsupervised operation of the trolling propulsion device is prohibited!
If a cable breaks or the electronic control unit breaks down, the gearbox automatically
switches to normal operating mode, i.e. the prevailing torque and corresponding
engine speed are transmitted.
!
NOTICE!
• With multi-engine systems, do not switch to trolling propulsion mode as long as one
or more gearboxes are running in normal operating mode.
• Do not switch any gearbox of a multi-engine system to normal mode as long as one
or more gearboxes are being run in trolling propulsion mode.

Operation
!
Switch trolling propulsion mode on only when the engine speed is within the
permissible range.
!
NOTICE!
Under no circumstances should you run the system in trolling propulsion mode with
a soiled filter element by using “Bypass” to circumvent filtering.
Switch over filters immediately when the “contaminated filter” warning appears.
!
Note in particular the following:
For trolling propulsion mode, use only oil types listed in our lubricant table BV2060/1
(oil types for trolling propulsion mode).
You must adhere to the oil change intervals specified in the maintenance plan.
The specified oil change intervals apply when trolling propulsion mode makes up
a maximum of 10 % of operating time. If this 10 % amounts to more than 200 hours,
a limit of 200 hours applies. You must consult the factory if the proportion of trolling
propulsion mode is higher.
In contrast to the information in the operating instructions, if the engine has been
operated in trolling propulsion mode, oil change intervals may not be extended
following an oil analysis.

These intervals apply to operating temperatures of up to 70°C as measured after the oil cooler.
Higher operating temperatures require shorter exchange intervals.
Please consult with REINTJES service in this case.
After the first 200 hours of operation it is also admissible to carry out an oil analysis.
Depending on the results of the analysis REINTJES will decide if the oil must be changed or if it further
can be used. Please contact REINTJES for detailed information about the oil analysis.
Perform the oil change with the gearbox at a standstill and while the operating oil is warm.
Loosen the oil drain screw and drain the operating oil.
Collect the used oil in appropriate used oil containers to avoid pollution of the environment.
Clean the oil drain screw and screw it into the socket together with a new sealing ring.
Unscrew the venting filter from the upper surface of the gearbox in order to pour in operating oil.

4.3 Additional work for gearboxes equipped for trolling propulsion mode
Make sure to adhere precisely to the intervals for changing operating oil specified in the
maintenance plan for trolling propulsion mode.
The specified oil change intervals apply when trolling propulsion mode makes up a
maximum of 10 % of operating time.
If this 10 % amounts to more than 200 hours, a limit of 200 hours applies.
If you operate the unit in trolling propulsion mode more of the time, consult with
REINTJES to determine the necessary measures.
It is not permissible to extend oil change intervals even if an oil analysis reveals
positive results.
Immediately replace any contaminated filter elements.
Gearboxes with electrical trolling propulsion devices are equipped with a finer filter.
Ensure that you have replacement fine filter elements on board.
These fine filter elements cannot be cleaned.
If you notice an increase in engagement time,
check the sinter filter element in the pressure
Sinter filter
build-up valve.
Exchange the sinter filter once it has become
clogged.
