7. ASSEMBLY
Counterclockwise rotation is required. Note that rotation can be reversed by following direction
given on terminal or nameplate.
(1). Assemble the motor mounting plate to the head using the long bolt Note that the flat side of
the plate faces up.
(2). Assemble the guard plate to the head using the screw and Lock Washer and the Carriage Bolt
Washer and Wing Nut are used to secure the motor mounting plate to the Guard plate through the
slotted hole in the Guard plate. These components also serve to position and lock the motor in
place for proper speed/ belt adjustment.
(3). Place the spacer over the long Bolt and secure it wit the nut.
(4). Secure the Motor to the Motor Mounting plate with the four bolts and nuts. Note, that the
motor shaft is placed through the large opening in the Guard plate and must be pareallel with the
drive Shaft.
(5). Assemble the Motor Pulley, the smaller of the two provided, to the motor shaft Note, the
larger diameter must be closest to the motor.
Do not tighten the set screw.
(6). Assemble the Driven Pulley, the larger of the two provided, to the protruding drive Shaft Note
the small diameter must be closest to the bearing.
Do not tighten the set screw.
(7).Place the belt into one of the pulley grooves and the other end into the respective grooves of
the second pulley.
(8) Line up the belt and both pulleys such that the belt is running parallel in the pulley grooves.
(9).Tighten the set screws of both pulleys in this position.
(10). Place the belt into proper pulley combination for proper blade speed. See material cutting
Chart.
(11). Adjust the position of the Motor to obtain approximately 13 mm depression in the belt when
applying pressure with your thumb.
(12). Tighten the head screw Holding the Motor Mounting plate to the Guard plate.
(13). Connect the Electrical Harness to the motor terminal box. The motor should be protected
with a time delay fuse or circuit breaker with a rated amperage slightly greater than the full load
amperage of the motor.
