END-OF-SHAFT WHEEL lNSTALLATION
1.0 Overview
The Magnetic Wheel should arrive fully assembled.
2.0 EOS Wheel Configuration
The ST8 Magnetic wheel assembly comes in two
versions. “Through Shaft” and “End of Shaft”.
The Through Shaft version allows the motor shaft
to completely transit “through” the center of the
magnetic wheel. The wheel is somewhat like a large
collar around the shaft. The End of Shaft (EOS)
adapters “caps” over the machined end of the motor
shaft. This style of shaft mounting is common on
larger DC motors.
Orient the Shaft adapter to end of the motor. The fit
should be snug, but smooth.
3.0 EOS Mount Shaft Adapter
Tighten to the appropriate torque for the particular
screw size of the motor. Use of “Low Strength”
thread-locker is suggested.
