Main Gearbox parts diagram. Numbers match the table below; each box is one top-level part or assembly with what it contains.
#PartQtyWhat it does
1 Helical Gear Pair 4× Two meshing helical gears forming one reduction stage that steps torque up and speed down between parallel shafts with quiet, continuous tooth contact.
2 Planetary Reduction Stage 5 parts 1× Final planetary gear set.
3 Gearbox Housing 1× Rigid cast housing that holds the gears and bearings in alignment, contains the lubricant, and mounts the gearbox to the machine.
4 Ball Bearing 12× Deep-groove radial ball bearing.
5 Oil Seal 6× Spring-loaded rotary lip seal that keeps lubricant inside a housing and dirt out where a shaft passes through, sized to DIN 3760.
6 Gear Oil 1× Extreme-pressure lubricant for gearboxes and axles that protects the meshing teeth under high load.
