4.2 Installation of motor (gearhead)
Direction of installation
The motor (gearhead) can be installed in any direction.
Method of installation
Incorrect installation will deteriorate the performance of the motor (gearhead) and
equipment, and may endanger operator safety.
Install the motor (gearhead) on a flat metallic plate having an excellent resistance to
vibration and heat conduction. Optional motor mounting brackets are available (sold
separately).
Note
•
The mounting pilot located on the motor installation surface should be
inserted into a countersunk or drilled through hole.
•
The boss on the gearhead installation surface should be inserted into a
