Lubricate Hub Spline and check
Air Chamber Lubrication.
Replace Control Valve.
Replace Return Springs.
Use Nexen's Flexible Clutch Coupling.
Contact Nexen for Clutch specifications.
Limit air pressure to 80 psi. Excessive air pressure increases the thrust load
on the Bearings.
Stay within the maximum specified speed limits as specified in the "Air Champ"
Catalog.
Use Nexen's Flexible Clutch Coupling for inline applications. Do not connect
a rigid coupling directly to the Drive Flange.
Avoid applying excessive overhung loads to Pilot Mount Clutches. Wide pulleys
or sprockets which extend beyond the end of the clutch will increase the radial
load and reduce bearing life.
