2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
One-way clutches of types AL/ ALP/ AL..F2D2/ AL..F4D2/ ALP..F7D7/ ALMP..F7D7/

AL..KMSD2/ AL..KEED2 are automatically switching clutches dependent on the direction of
rotation. They are used as overrunning clutches, backstops, or switching clutches in
machines and systems.
One-way clutches may only be operated within the limitations of use outlined in Section 2.5.
All of the specifications stated in the assembly and maintenance manual must be strictly
adhered to.
Any claims due to damage arising from improper use are excluded. The operator bears sole
liability for all damage arising from improper use.
Driving operation of an overrunning clutch:
When the driving machine elements are operated in the pulling direction, the driving machine
element and the torque-supporting machine element are connected to each other in a force-
locked manner by the overrunning clutch. In this operating state, output can be transmitted.
Overrun operation of an overrunning clutch:

The overrunning clutch automatically releases the force-locked connection of the driving
machine element and the driven machine element if the torque of the driven machine
element is higher than that of the driving machine element.

Lockout operation of a backstop:

When the machine shaft is operated in the reverse direction, the machine shaft and the
torque-supporting machine element are connected to each other in a force-locked manner by
the one-way clutch. In this operating state, a torque is transmitted.
Overrun operation of a backstop:

The one-way clutch automatically releases the force-locked connection between the machine
shaft and the torque-supporting machine element, providing the machine shaft is operated in
the overrun direction.
Driving operation of an indexing clutch:

When the machine shaft is operated in the pulling direction, the machine shaft and the
torque-supporting machine element are connected to each other in a force-locked manner by
the one-way clutch. In this operating state, an output is transmitted.
Idling operation of an indexing clutch:

The one-way clutch automatically releases the force-locked connection between the machine
shaft and the torque-supporting machine element, providing the machine shaft is operated in
the idling direction.
2.2 Responsibility of the operator
The operator of the system in which the one-way clutch is installed is subject to the legal
obligations concerning occupational safety.
The valid provisions for the site of operation as well as the safety and accident prevention
regulations of the trade association are to be observed. In particular, this means that the
operator:
 is aware of the valid occupational safety provisions
 implements at the site of operation the necessary behavioral requirements for
operation of the system in which the one-way clutch is installed
 clearly defines responsibilities for installation, operation, maintenance, and cleaning
of the system in which the one-way clutch is installed
 ensures that all staff members who work at or with the system in which the one-way
clutch is installed have read and understood the operation manual. Moreover, the
operator must, at regular intervals, provide training for personnel on how to handle
the system in which the one-way clutch is installed, and inform them of the potential
dangers. In addition, the operator is responsible for ensuring that the system in
which the one-way clutch is installed:
o is always in perfect technical condition

o is maintained in accordance with the specified maintenance intervals

o has all its safety equipment checked regularly for completeness and
functionality
2.3 Assembly and maintenance personnel

 Only ever have tasks performed by those persons to whom
the tasks have been assigned.
Qualified personnel are those persons who, owing to their training, experience, and
instruction as well as their knowledge of relevant standards, provisions, accident prevention
regulations and operating conditions, have been authorized by the person responsible for the
safety of the system to perform the requisite tasks and are able to recognize and avoid
potential dangers in doing so. Knowledge of first-aid measures and on-site emergency
equipment is also required.
2.4 Personal protective equipment
In order to minimize health risks, it is necessary to wear personal protective equipment when
handling the system in which the one-way clutch is installed.
Above all, the necessary protective equipment such as work shoes, gloves, safety goggles,
etc. is to be put on prior to all tasks and kept on during the task.

3.2 Functional principle
AL/ ALP/ AL..F2D2/ AL..F4D2/ ALP..F7D7/ ALMP..F7D7/ AL..KMSD2/ AL..KEED2 model

one-way clutches are fitted with individually spring-loaded clamp rollers. Spring-loading
ensures that all clamp rollers are continuously in contact with the one-way clutch's inner and
outer race and are thus ready for operation. When turning the inner or outer clutch race (see
Fig. 4) in the pulling direction, the rollers create a frictional connection between the inner and
outer race so that a torque or output can be transmitted. The torque is always transmitted
here from the actuation shaft to the output shaft. In driving operation, the speeds of the inner
ring and outer race are identical.
Overrun operation Pulling
Pulling Overrun operation
Fig. 4 Pulling/overrun operation
Overrun operation is carried out if the inner race or outer race is turned in the overrun
direction. This interrupts the frictional connection (see Fig. 4) between the inner and outer
race. In overrun operation the speeds of the inner race and outer race are different.
4 Transport and packaging
The local provisions regarding the disposal of transport and packaging

NOTICE
materials are to be observed.
The one-way clutch is shipped in a box or on a pallet.

Transport damage to the packaging and/or the one-way clutch is to be reported to the
respective transit company without delay.
The one-way clutch must be unpacked in a clean and dry environment.

5 Storage
5.1 Short-term storage

one-way clutches come with an oil film as corrosion protection. This corrosion protection is to
be renewed at regular intervals. The frequency of these renewal intervals is dependent on
the environmental conditions (temperature, moisture, salt content of the air, etc.) at the
storage site.
The maximum storage period (short-term storage) is 6 months. Moreover, the one-way clutch
must have long-term storage corrosion protection applied to it.
Store packages under the following conditions:

 Do not keep outdoors.
 Keep dry and free from dust.
 Do not expose to aggressive media.
 Keep away from direct sunlight.
 Avoid mechanical shocks and vibrations.
 Storage temperature: −10 to +60°C (14°F to 140°F)
 Relative humidity: max. 95%, non-condensing
5.2 Long-term storage
For long-term storage, the one-way clutch must be shrink-wrapped with a desiccant and
provided with a hygroscope. The corrosion protection must be checked after a period not
exceeding one year or else depending on the environmental conditions (temperature,
moisture, salt content of the air, etc.) at the storage site.
Store packages under the following conditions:

 Do not keep outdoors.
 Keep dry and free from dust.
 Do not expose to aggressive media.
 Keep away from direct sunlight.
 Avoid mechanical shocks and vibrations.
 Storage temperature: −10 to +60°C (14°F to 140°F)
 Relative humidity: max. 95%, non-condensing

6 Installation
6.1 Checking the direction of rotation


during operation:
switched on again.
Risk of injury due to the one-way clutch falling down or tipping

over!
The weight of the one-way clutch can injure people and cause severe
WARNING crushing.
Therefore:
 When lifting, use suitable lifting gear (slings, etc.) able to
support the weight of the one-way clutch.

Before installation, the direction of rotation of the one-way clutch must be checked.
6.2 Changing the direction of rotation
For AL / ALP/ ALM models, the direction of rotation is changed by reversing the one-way clutch.
For AL..F2D2/ AL..F4D2/ ALP..F7D7/ ALMP..F7D7/ AL..KMSD2/ AL..KEED2 models, the
direction of rotation is changed by swapping the flange and cover or clutch and cover.

Procedural steps:
 Remove the cylinder screws from the cover and remove the components.
 Place the flange and cover or clutch cover onto the opposite side and insert the
cylinder screws with Loctite and tighten (see Table 3 Tightening torques).

Danger of scalding due to hot surfaces!

There is a risk of burns and danger of scalding during operation
WARNING due to hot surfaces. Therefore:
 Do not touch one-way clutches during operation.
New grooved ball bearings (10) must be installed after all

NOTICE
maintenance operations.
7.1 Oil level check
The oil level must be checked depending on the operating

NOTICE conditions and the installation position, however, after half a year at
the latest.
Procedural steps:
 To check the oil level, the oil filling plugs on the perimeter of the cover or the flange
must be in the following position:
One of the plugs at the top, the other at the side below the center
Figure 11: Position of oil filling plugs

 Unfasten the upper and side oil filling plugs with the sealing ring.
 Fill in the prescribed oil into the upper hole until it starts to emerge at the side hole.
 Tighten the oil filling plugs with the seal again with the tightening torque (see Table 6
Check the oil filling plug and the oil drain plug for firm seating and
NOTICE leak tightness. If leaks occur at the plugs during operation, new
seals must be installed.
7.2 Oil change
An oil change is required after approx. 9,000 operating hours or after one year at the latest.
In very dirty environments, the interval is reduced to 5,000 operating hours or every half year.
Procedural steps:
 Position the one-way clutches so that the oil filling plugs
on the perimeter of the cover are in the following position:
One of the plugs at the top, the other at the side below the center
(see Figure 11). To drain, one of the plugs must be at the bottom.
 Unfasten both oil filling plugs with the seal and drain the oil. To do so,
place a suitable drip pan with an appropriate capacity beneath it.
The local provisions regarding the disposal of waste oil must be

NOTICE
observed.
 Fill the one-way clutches with the prescribed oil quantity (see Section 2.5
Specifications) or until oil emerges on the side.
 Screw the oil filling plug with the seal into the bottom hole and tighten with the
tightening torque (see Table 6 Tightening torques in Section 6.2 ).
 Tighten the upper oil filling plug with the seal with the tightening torque (see Table 6
Check the oil filling plug and the oil drain plug for firm seating and
NOTICE leak tightness. If leaks occur at the plugs during operation, new
seals must be installed.
7.3 Maintenance and replacement of the elastic elements of the KEE clutch
The KEE clutches are fitted with paraffin-coated profile sleeves (35), from which the paraffin
emerges slowly in order to lubricate the bolts and plugs during operation. As a result, the
sleeves become gray. This does not have any effect on the durability or the function.
No special maintenance of the KEE clutch is required.

Procedural steps:
 With KEE clutches sizes 2 to 4, the grooved locking pins and end disks must be
removed before the profile sleeves are removed.
 With KEE clutches at or above size 5, the locking nuts (38)
should first be released and the transfer bolts should be driven out slightly.
 Next, remove the locking rings (30) and end disks (39).
 Remove the profile sleeve (35).
 With KEE sizes 5 to 28, tap the bolts (36) slightly to drive them into the greased
holes of the two clutch parts (32 and 31).
With KEE sizes 2 to 4, firmly insert the bolts (36) (grooved pins) into the clutch
parts (32 und 31). This is why it must be possible to move one of the two shafts to
be connected longitudinally for installation and removal.
 Put on the profile sleeves (35), the washers (39), and the locking rings (30).
To achieve a uniform transmission of force, the entire set of profile

NOTICE
sleeves should always be replaced.
 The transfer bolts are tightened evenly after putting on the nuts (38) using a torque
wrench (see Table 7 Installation of KEE clutch) until their conical element makes
contact in the shoulder of the hole.
Placing a wrench on the wrench flat of the bolt head prevents the
NOTICE
transfer bolts from turning while the nuts are tightened.
7.4 Maintenance and replacement of the elastic elements of the KMS clutch
No special maintenance of the KMS clutch is required.
When mounting the elastic elements, ensure that the clutch halves
are not mounted too close, in order to prevent the elastic elements
NOTICE
from being exposed to lateral pressure and to ensure that the clutch
remains flexible in the axial direction during use.
The clutch halves must not be mounted too far from each other; this
NOTICE ensures that the rubber blocks are capable of transmitting over the
entire width between the coupling claws.
Procedural steps:

 Loosen all screws from the retaining caps (46) and remove (from sizes 10 to 1600).
Figure 12 Fastened retaining caps (from sizes 10 to 1,600)
 Remove the retaining cap. A threaded rod can be used as an aid to slide on the
retaining cap.
 Remove the saddle element/annular gears.
