Brushless Motor
- The brushless motor is
located directly below the Top Deck. 4 bolts
run down through the Top Deck and into the
housing of the brushless motor fastening it
onto the machine.
CAUTION: THE BRUSHLESS MOTOR
WEIGHS APPROXIMATELY 80 LBS (36KG).
DO NOT REMOVE WITHOUT DISCUSSING
THE PROCEDURES AND EQUIPMENT
NECESSARY WITH A SOLARBEE SERVICE
TEAM MEMBER.
The brushless motor is built to be very
durable. The housing is constructed of casted
aluminum. The brushless motor runs very
quietly and smoothly. It does not require any
maintenance. A drive shaft extends through
the bottom center of the housing.
Shaft Coupling
- The shaft coupling connects
the brushless motor drive shaft to the impeller
shaft. The shaft coupling is located directly
below the brushless motor and is made up
of 3 main components. These components
are called the upper coupling, lower coupling,
and coupling sleeve. The shaft coupling is
designed to allow quick disconnect for removal
of the impeller assembly. Disconnecting the
impeller shaft from the brushless motor shaft
is simply accomplished by pulling out a pin
and requires no tools. The upper coupling
remains attached to the brushless motor while
the lower coupling and coupling sleeve remain
on the impeller shaft.
