Where is the oil level indicator for XWD6-29-7.5 cycloidal pinwheel reducer
The oil level indicator of XWD6-29-7.5 cycloidal pinwheel reducer is usually located on the side or top of the box, and the specific position and inspection method are as follows:
1. Type of oil level indicator
Cycloid pinwheel reducers often use transparent oil gauges (oil mirrors) or built-in oil dipsticks as oil level indicators. Transparent oil gauges are commonly used in small and medium-sized reducers, allowing for direct observation of whether the oil level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" markings; The built-in dipstick needs to be pulled out to determine the oil level based on the oil stains.
2. Specific location

Horizontal installation: The oil level indicator is usually located in the middle of the side of the box for easy observation of the static oil level.
Vertical installation: The oil gauge may be located on the top or side of the box, and it is necessary to ensure that the oil covers the gear meshing area.
Special design: Some reducers may have oil level indicators (such as oil dipsticks) installed near the low-speed shaft.
3. Precautions for Inspection
Before inspection, it is necessary to ensure that the gearbox is in a horizontal state. Tilting can cause oil level deviation and affect accuracy.
The new gearbox needs to be replaced with new oil after half a month of initial operation, and the oil level should be controlled at 2/3 of the centerline of the oil window or the scale mark.
If the oil level indicator is of the oil plug inspection type (such as the old gearbox), the oil plug should be unscrewed to observe the oil leakage status.
