Reduction ratios available are 1.53:1, 2.03:1, 2.86:1, and 4.00:1 (4.00:1 reduction is not available on down angle gearbox) all of which can provide either left-hand or right-hand propeller rotation in \"ahead\", making the gearbox particularly well suited to twin engine installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe gearcase is constructed of high grade cast iron, internally ribbed for rigidity and strength, and consists of two separate halves to facilitate servicing, the oil pump and hydraulic control valves being externally mounted for easy accessibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hydraulic operating system functions on normal lubricating oil of the same viscosity as that used in the engine, avoiding the need to use automatic transmission fluid, and ensures rapid response to movements of the operating lever for good boat handling. The operating lever has a positive neutral detent and is suitable for use with proprietary single lever remote control operating systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobust and reliable, the hydraulic system is nevertheless provided with a mechanical lock-up device for added security, so that in the unlikely event of hydraulic failure the boat can be brought safely back to port. Access to this device is via a detachable cover located on top of the main gearcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA special feature of the PRM1000 is the clutched power take-off which is available as an optional extra; this will power a hydraulic pump to SAE J744C type 'B' specification, thus providing an economical and space efficient means of driving on-board machinery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn electronically operated trolling valve can be fitted, which will allow variable speed of the propeller to zero whilst allowing a maximum engine speed of up to 1200 rpm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is essential for the engine, transmission model, reduction ratio and propeller size to be correctly matched so that the engine can attain its rated speed appropriate to the relevant service classification without labouring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is also necessary to ensure the torsional compatibility of the complete propulsion system from engine through to propeller, since disregarding this may result in gear noise, particularly at low speed operation, and may even result in damage to the engine as well as the transmission components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOperating Pressure\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMinimum - 30.34 bar (440 PSI), Maximum - 33.44 bar (485 PSI). Two tapped holes 1\/8\" BSP on the top, and M18 on the side of the valve block are provided so that the pressure gauge can be fitted if required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOil Cooling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe normal operating temperature of the oil should be in the 50°C - 80°C range and should not be permitted to exceed 90°C. An oil cooler is necessary to ensure that correct operating temperatures are maintained, and two 3\/8\" BSP connections are provided on the valve block to allow it to be fitted. The size of the cooler required depends on a number of factors including the transmitted horsepower, operating speed, duty cycle, inlet water temperature and ambient temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePropeller Thrust\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth ahead and astern thrust is carried by the output shaft bearings which are of adequate capacity for all factory approved ratings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePRM1000 Gearbox spline: 18 teeth 12\/24 DP.
