Mounting For Collector
1.
Mount the collector assembly to allow for overall mounting
height as well as maximum collector movement to ensure
consistant contact when in use. See
Figure 2-2.
2.
The collector assembly should be supported around the
clearance hole location, out to a minimum diameter of 2 times
the clearance hole diameter. See
Figure 2-3.
NOTE
•
Provisions for making the electrical connections are
provided for the on the collector assemblies. Reference
the provided drawing for brush stud size.
•
Care must be taken when connecting the brush studs to
ensure the correct phases are clustered together. Any
