MOTOR ASSEMBLY
See General Warnings on page 1-2.
1.
Replace the bearing.
1.1. Use an arbor press to install a new bearing into the end cap. To help avoid damaging the bearing, apply
pressure only to the outer race when installing the bearing.
1.2. Install the retaining ring to secure the bearing
.
2.
Install the brushes and brush rigging.
See following NOTE.
NOTE:
When installing new brushes, remove and replace brushes one at a time. This method ensures the terminals
and brushes will be properly positioned in the rigging.
When replacing brushes, replace all four brushes. Never replace only two.
Install the brushes in the same rigging 180° apart from each other.
2.1. Insert the brushes into the brush rigging as shown
.
2.2. Insert the two terminal posts through insulators (4) in the end cap (11) wall at the A1 and A2 positions
.
2.3. Place external insulators (5) and washers (6) on each terminal post, and secure terminal with nuts (7).
Tighten nuts (7) to 100 in·lb (11.3 N·m). Ensure that the terminal posts do not rotate when tightening
the nuts
2.4. Secure the brush rigging to the end cap with two screws. Tighten the screws to 25 in·lb (2.8 N·m)
2.5. One at a time, push the brushes back until they are completely retracted into their mounting slots and the
spring pressure holds them in the retracted position as shown
.
