LUBRICATION
IMPORTANT: Because reducer is shipped without oil, it is
necessary to add the proper amount of oil before running.
Use a high-grade petroleum base rust and oxidation
inhibited (R&O) gear oil - see tables. Follow instructions
on reducer warning tags, and in the installation manual.

inhibited (R&O) gear oil - see tables. Follow instructions

Under average industrial operating conditions, the
lubricant should be changed every 2500 hours of
operating or every 6 months, whichever occurs first. Drain
reducer and flush with kerosene, clean magnetic drain
plug and refill to proper level with new lubricant.

Failure to observe this precaution could result in bodily
injury.
Under extreme operating conditions, such as rapid rise
and fall of temperature, dust, dirt, chemical particles,
chemical fumes, or oil sump temperatures above 200°F,
the oil should be changed every 1 to 3 months, depending
on severity of conditions.

CAUTION: Do not use EP oils containing slippery
additives such as graphite or molybdenum disulfide in the
reducer when backstop is used. These additives will
destroy sprag action.

U.S. Measure: 1 quart = 32 fluid ounces = .94646 liters.
Note: If reducer position is to vary from those shown in figure 1,
either more or less oil may be required. Consult Dodge.
If output is less than 15 RPM, consult Dodge.

If output is less than 15 RPM, consult Dodge.
• Below 15 RPM output speed, oil level must be adjusted to reach the
highest oil level plug (P.).

Guidelines for TORQUE-ARM™ Reducer Long-Term
Storage
Storage
During periods of long storage, or when waiting for
delivery or installation of other equipment, special care
should be taken to protect a gear reducer to have it ready
to be in the best condition when placed into service.
delivery or installation of other equipment, special care
should be taken to protect a gear reducer to have it ready
to be in the best condition when placed into service.
By taking special precautions, problems such as seal
leakage and reducer failure due to lack of lubrication,
improper lubrication quantity, or contamination can be
avoided. The following precautions will protect gear
reducers during periods of extended storage:

Preparation
1. Drain the oil from the unit. Add a vapor phase corrosion
inhibiting oil (VCI-105 oil by Daubert Chemical Co.) in
accordance with Table 3.
