Section B: Bolting Two Modules Together 

(20-30, 20FBC-30, 30-40)

The brake module (20 or 20FBC) or output clutch 
module (40) may be assembled to the input clutch 
module (30) .

1 .  Align the pilot and mounting holes of brake 

module (20 or 20FB) or if clutch only the module 
(40) to the pilot and mounting holes of the 
clutch module (30) . The wire orientation should 

match . Secure the modules together with four 
(4) tie-bolts provided . Tighten the four (4) bolts 
alternately to ensure even alignment of the 
modules . Tighten them to 30-35 foot pounds . 
(Figure 4)

Section C: Adjusting the Airgap

For new installations it is necessary to adjust the 
airgap between the friction faces of the clutch and/or 
brake .

To set the airgap for an Electro-Module (EM) you 
will need to access the armatures . You will note 
that there are gaps between the housing fins on 
both sides of the module . When looking through 
this gap, you will see the fan on the clutch rotor . On 
the outer periphery of the fan there is a 1/2 x 1 inch 
window . It is possible to look inside the module and 
see the armatures by looking through this window . 
When looking into the window you will be looking 
between the two armatures of the clutch or brake . 
[In a module (10-40) there is only a single armature .]
