Having all the application information available will enable us to help with the selection of the right gearbox. A checklist is available for this. |

| What happens if the planetary gearbox is run outside of the recommended parameters? | Gearboxes which are run continuously at higher than catalogue recommended conditions, will need to be de-rated, will potentially overheat, and will suffer reduced life.
