Introduction
The Falk Equi-Poised Motor Mount is an all-steel weldment that
bolts directly to the steel frame of Falk Shaft Mounted (Type JR),
Flange Mounted (Type JF) and Screw Conveyor (Type JSC)
Drives, as shown in Figure 1.
This modern design provides a simple means of tensioning
V-belts with adjusting screws. The motor base plate is
pre-drilled for rerated NEMA standard foot-mounted motors
within the rated capacity of the drive.
