INSTALLATION
(See Figures 1, & 2, Table 1)
1. Remove hub (99) from brake and position on motor shaft with key according to dimension “N” per fi gure 1.
Stamped part number on hub should face away from motor. Tighten hub set screws with 18 lb.ft. torque.
2. Remove temporary cover nut and cover (67). Set cover aside. Discard temporary nut.
3. If brake is supplied with a mounting face gasket (91), place gasket onto the brake mounting face.
4. Place brake on motor, guiding discs on hub. Use caution not to pinch gasket. For horizontal mounted brakes, the
drain plug should be pointed down.
5. Bolt brake to motor “C” face with four socket head cap screws. See Figure 1 to help in determining proper bolt
length. Final bolt thread pitch, length and mounting torque is dependent on the material and depth of the threaded
holes in the mounting face.
6. Connect coil leads per appropriate wiring diagram in Figure 1 and replace cover (67).
7. Use provided sealing washers (70) and nylon locking nuts (71) to secure cover (67).
