⚠ Installation & Safety Instructions

Please follow the guidelines below to ensure correct installation and optimal performance of the SHD-03 Mini Harmonic Drive Reducer.

🔧 1. Lubrication Guidelines

• If the reducer’s output end is positioned facing downward for extended periods, ensure the lubricant applied to the flexspline’s inner wall cavity fully covers and extends beyond the gear-meshing tooth surface.

• Proper lubrication prevents wear, overheating, and premature failure.

🔩 2. Assembly & Sealing Requirements

• Apply a static seal between:

  • the rigid wheel and its connector mounting surfaces

  • the flexspline and its connector mounting surfaces

• This sealing step is essential to prevent grease leakage during operation.

• Grease loss can lead to insufficient lubrication, resulting in internal damage.

🛠 3. Handling Precautions

• Do not strike, drop, or apply heavy force to any part of the reducer.

• Avoid using hard tools or excessive pressure during installation.

• Improper handling may cause:

  • deformation of precision components

  • reduced torque accuracy

  • shortened service life
