MOTOR MOUNT ASSEMBLY
The motor mount may be installed in any of the mounting levels
(M1, M2, or M3 as shown previously in this manual section).
Install the motor mount uprights to the input side of the reducer.
Assembly
Remove (4) or (6) housing bolts from the reducer as needed.
Place the motor mount in position and reinstall the bolts through
the motor mount uprights and reducer housing. Tighten bolts to
the torque specifi ed in the table on
this page.
Mount the motor onto the top plate and bolt securely. Install the
motor sheave and reducer sheave as close to the motor and
reducer housings as practical. Loosen the bottom plate bolts
and slide the motor and mounting plate to accurately align the
motor and reducer sheave. Securely tighten the bottom plate
bolts. Install the required number of V-belts and tension belts
by alternately adjusting the jam nuts on the (4) adjusting studs
provided on the motor mount. Check all bolts to see that they
are securely tightened. Verify that the V-belt drive is properly
aligned before operating the reducer.

Components
Refer to example a for locations of component parts. Using
the hardware provided, assemble uprights (the angled parts
to which the reducer is fastened) to the u-shaped, rectangular
bottom plate. Notice that there are (8) slots cut into the plate.
Assemble the uprights in the innermost slots. The bottom plate
may be mounted with the vertical fl anges up or down (as shown
in example a). Snug bolts only, do not torque bolts at this time.
Fasten (4) long threaded studs to the (4) corners of the bottom
plate using jam nuts, (1) stud on each side of the upright.
Securely tighten these nuts, as they will not require any further
adjustment. Add (1) additional jam nut to each stud and thread
approximately to the middle of the stud. Assemble top motor
plate (the fl at rectangular plate with many holes) on top of the
jam nuts. Assemble the remaining jam nuts on studs to secure
top motor plate. Do not fully tighten these nuts yet.
