CLASSES OF SERVICE:

All WorldWide HdR Series Worm Gear Reducers Are For A 1.00 Service Factor Or Class I Service. A 1.00 Service Factor Applied When The
Use Of The Reducer Is For Continuous Service Free From Recurrent Shock Loading and Does Not Exceed 10 Hours Per Day. When Operating
Conditions Are Different From Those Described Above, The Input Horsepower and Torque Ratings Shown Must Be Divided By The
Appropriate Service Factor Indicated In The Table Below. The Catalog Ratings May Be Used Without Adjustments If The Actual Driven
Machine Horsepower and Torque Requirements Are Multiplied By The Appropriate Service Factor Indicated In The Table Below.
