1Doc. No. 57746 • Boston Gear® 700 Series Worm Gear Speed Reducers
Inadequate lubrication is by far the largest contributor to
premature failures of worm gear drives, applied within proper
selection practice.
While lubricant selection is important to all gear reducers, it is
critical for the worm gear type. Sliding action at the tooth
mesh dictates use of a relatively high viscosity oil with special
characteristics. A recent survey indicated improper lubricants
were used in two-thirds of the applications. Although lightly
loaded drives may survive, optimum performance is not
obtained.
Boston Gear now offers Mobil SHC634 Synthetic Lubricating
Oil as a premium lubricant with many outstanding benefits for
worm gear applications.
•Reduction in maintenance costs due to extended time
between oil changes.
•Increased ratings providing for smaller drive selection or
longer gear life.
•Lower energy consumption from improved efficiency.
•Broad ambient temperature range due to high viscosity
temperature.
•Longer seal life, based on lower operating temperature.
•Multi-purpose application, including most other types of
gear drives.
Lubrication Instructions
WARNING - Boston Gear speed reducers are normally
shipped without lubricant. They must be filled to the
proper level with the recommended lubricant for your
application before operation.
The recommended lubricant table indicates the type and
viscosity of lubricant suitable for reducers operating at various
temperatures.
Lubrication and maintenance instructions are provided with
each speed reducer. These instructions should be followed for
best results. It is important that the proper type of oil be used
since many oils are not suitable for the lubrication of gears.
Various types of gearing require different types of lubricants.
The lubricant must remain free from oxidation and contamina-
tion by water or debris, since only a very thin film of oil stands
between efficient operation and failure. To assure long service
life, the reducer should be periodically drained (preferably
while warm) and refilled to the proper level with a recom-
mended gear oil. Under normal environmental conditions oil
changes are suggested after the initial 250 hours or every 6
months.
Synthetic lubricants will allow extended lubrication intervals
due to its increased resistance to thermal and oxidation
degradation. It is suggested that the initial oil change be made
at 1500 hours and, thereafter, at 5000 hour intervals.
During the initial period of operation, higher than normal
operating temperatures may be seen. This is due to the initial
break-in of the worm gear set. The temperature of
Double Reduction Worm Gear Reducers may reach 160°F
and Single Reduction Worm Gear Reducers approximately
225°F.
These instructions must be read thoroughly before
installing or operating speed reducers. File instructions
for future reference and for ordering of replacement
parts.
General Instructions
1. Align all shafts accurately. Improper alignment can result
in failure. Use of flexible couplings is recommended to
compensate for slight misalignment.
2. When mounting, use maximum possible bolt size and
secure reducer to a rigid foundation. Periodic inspection
of all bolts is recommended.

3. Auxiliary drive components (such as sprockets, gears and
pulleys) should be mounted on the shafts as close as
possible to the housing to minimize effects of overhung
loads. Avoid force fits that might damage bearings or
gears.
4. For hollow-shaft speed reducers, place speed reducer as
close as possible to supporting bearing on drive shaft.
Spot-drill driven shaft for setscrews in severe applications.
See kit instructions for reaction rod assembly.
5. Check and record gear backlash at installation and again
at regular intervals. This should be done by measuring the
rotary movement of the output shaft (rotating alternately
clockwise and counterclockwise) at a suitable radius while
holding the input shaft stationary. Gears should be
replaced when the backlash exceeds four times the
measurement taken at installation.
6. Gear drives are rated for 1750 input RPM and Class I
Service (Service Factor 1.0), using Mobil SHC634
synthetic lubricant. For lower input speeds or for different
service classes or lubricants, see catalog selection pages
for rating information.
7. Initial operating temperatures may be higher than normal
during the break-in period of the gear set. FOR MAXIMUM
LIFE, DO NOT ALLOW THE SPEED REDUCER TO
OPERATE CONTINUOUSLY ABOVE 225°F AT THE
GEAR CASE. In the event of overheating, check for
overloads or high ambient temperatures. Keep shafts and
vent plugs clean to prevent foreign particles from entering
seals or gear housing.
8. All reducers should be checked to see if they have been
lubricated. Prelubed 700 Series reducers will have a solid
plug in the vent hole which must be replaced by the vent
plug at time of installation.
CAUTION – If the motor does not readily seat itself, check
to determine if key has moved axially along motor shaft,
causing interference. Staking of the keyway adjacent to the
motor key will facilitate this procedure.
Key Staking Instructions
Lightly tap area of keyway adjacent to key. This will upset
material and not allow key to move axially when assembling to
speed reducer.
CAUTION
•For safe operation of any gear drive, all rotating
shafts and auxiliary components must be shielded
to conform with applicable safety standards. You
must consider overall operational system safety at
all times.
•When using a speed reducer to raise or lower a
load, such as in hoisting applications, provision
must be made for external braking. Under no
conditions should a speed reducer be considered
self-locking.
•Mounting of speed reducers in overhead positions
may be hazardous. Use of external guides or
supports is strongly recommended for overhead
mounting.
Instructions for Flanged Models
F700 (Quill Type Input)
1. Assemble the key to the motor shaft and coat the shaft
with anti-seize compound. Insert the motor shaft into the
reducer input shaft.
2. Rotate the motor to proper position and firmly secure to
flange with four hex-head cap screws.
RF700 (Coupling Input – 3-Jaw Type) (752 and 760 Only)
1. Coat reducer input and motor shaft with anti-seize
compound.
2. Position coupling half on input shaft with shaft flush to end
of coupling bore.
3. Locate remaining half on motor shaft, with 1/32" clearance
between jaw surfaces.
4. Tighten setscrews securely. For reversing applications, a
thread-locking compound is recommended.
5. Install coupling insert and position motor. Rotate motor to
proper position and firmly secure to flange.
QC700 (Coupling Input-3-Jaw Quick Connect Type)
1. Coat motor shaft with anti-seize compound.
2. Install motor coupling half onto motor shaft. Use a straight
edge to align coupling jaw top end flush with motor shaft
except 738-B9 which will be flush with bottom of jaw.
Secure with set screw.
3. Install urethane spider insert on motor coupling half.
4. Insert D-Bore coupling half into urethane spider element.
5. Rotate reducer input shaft so “milled flats” are either
vertical or parallel. Rotate motor coupling D-Bore to match
the reducer milled flats. Coat “D” flats with anti-seize
compound furnished with speed reducer.
6. Insert motor assembly into reducer flange assembly.
Minor rotating of the motor may be necessary to facilitate
D-Bore alignment.
7. Once aligned, push motor towards reducer until properly
seated against the face of the reducer flange.
8. Insert (4) hex head cap screws into the designated
locations and securely tightened.

SINGLE REDUCTION MODELS ONLY
OILLEVELS FOR TYPICAL MOUNTING POSITIONS
DOUBLE REDUCTION MODELS
The variety of mounting possibilities for double reduction
drives makes it impractical to illustrate positions for these
models. In general, the vent filler is at the uppermost plug
position, and the drain plug at the lowest possible position.
The oil level must be at the approximate centerline of the
uppermost gear.

CAUTION: Relubricate more frequently if drive operated
in high ambient temperatures or unusually contaminated
atmosphere. High loads and operating temperatures will
also require more frequent lubrication.
*Synthetic recommendation is exclusively for Mobil
SHC634.
+Other lubricants corresponding to AGMA/ISO numbers
are available from all major oil companies.
**The SHC lubricant will perform at temperatures
considerable higher than 225°F. However, the factory
should always be consulted prior to operating at higher
temperature as damage may occur to oil seals and other
components.
LUBRICANT INTERCHANGE
1. Ambient temperature is based upon 1.0 service factor.
2. Lubricants are compounded for use in worm gears. Some
contain non-corrosive, extreme pressure additives. DO
NOT USE lubes that contain sulphur and/or chlorine
which are corrosive to bronze gears. Extreme pressure
lubes, in some cases contain materials that are toxic.
Avoid use of these lubes where they can result in harmful
effects. If in doubt, consult your lube supplier.

F700 Series
Disassembly and Re-assembly Procedure
(For Item Identification, Refer To Exploded View)
Output Shaft Disassembly
1. Remove vented filler (Item 26), and the most convenient
pipe plug (Item 27) and completely drain oil.
2. Remove bearing carrier screws (Item 24) from projecting
shaft bearing carrier (Item 9). Remove carrier by
CAREFULLY sliding it over the projecting shaft diameter.
3. Output shaft assembly (Items 2, 3, 5 &6) can now be
removed from the unit. Exercise care not to nick or
scratch worm gear or shaft diameters.
4. Visually examine the output shaft assembly. Check
tapered roller bearings (Item 6) for signs of metallic
contamination or discoloration. Rollers should have
continuously smooth action and should not bind or exhibit
“flat-spots”.
