Maintenance

13. Unplug motor wires. Loosen end cap screws, 1 

full turn.

14. Back off set screws to release belt tension.

15. Remove the motor clamps and lift brackets.

16. Remove belts and belt covers.

17. Lift motor out of housing. Remove pulleys and 

adjustment bracket with screw. Set parts aside for 
re-installation.

18. Take the new motor and loosen the screws in the 

long rear drive end cap. This allows the end cap 
to /- 20 degrees. Do not remove the end 
cap screws, only back them off 1 full turn. Install 
adjustment bracket to the opposite end. Torque to 
40 in-lbs (4.5Nm)

19. Put the motor in the cradle on the frame. Place 

pulleys onto motor shaft's. Loop the drive belt 
onto the right motor drive pulley

NOTE: Do not let the pulleys extend more than 
0.5mm (0.02in) past the motor shaft.

20. Reinstall the motor clamps, only tighten the rear 

screws. The front screws will be tightened later.

21. From the bottom, remove the left driver plate 

(front brush).

22. Loop and align the belt on the motor pulley.

23. Install one screw from the service kit (P/N 9.841-

005.0) into the pulley, captured by the belt.

24. Rotate the pulley to install the second captured 

screw.

25. Use the 2 screws to rotate the assembly to install 

the third screw.

26. Rotate the pulley and guide the belt onto the 

pulley. To ensure proper alignment, reverse 
rotation may be necessary. Use caution when 
prying against the frame.

27. Gently pry the motor up from the frame and 

tighten the left set screw. Use the kit’s distance 
tool to center the motor and set the belt tension.

28. Repeat the previous step for the right set screw.

29. Place lift brackets on motor, align over pins.

30. Tighten the screw in the long gear drive cap.

31. Tighten all four motor clamp bolts. 

32. Check both belts for equal tension. The belts 

should not sag under their own weight, however, 
should flex easily when squeezed with fingers. If 
the tension is clearly unequal, loosen the motor 
mount bolts and re-tighten. This will equalize the 
belt tension from on side to the other.

33. Reinstall finger guards.
