Replacing the Motor
1. Turn off all electrical power to the unit. Use approved
lockout/tagout procedures on all electrical power
sources.
2. Remove the cover on the motor connection box.
3. Disconnect all electrical leads to the motor.
4. Loosen the two jack bolt jamnuts on the motor
mounting bracket.
5. Turn the two jack bolts counterclockwise until the
motor assembly moves closer to the blower pulley.
6. Remove the V-belt from the blower pulley and motor
pulley.
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this CAUTION can result in
premature wear and damage to equipment.
Do not use a screwdriver or pry−bar to place the new
V−belt in the pulley groove. This can cause stress on
the V−belt and the pulley, resulting in premature wear
on the V−belt and damage to the pulley.
CAUTION
!
7. Loosen the four mounting bracket bolts and lock
washers.
8. Remove four bolts, four flat washers, four lock wash
ers and four nuts attaching the motor mounting plate
to the unit. Discard all lock washers.
9. Remove the motor and motor mounting bracket from
the unit.
10. Remove four bolts, flat washers, lock washers and
single external-tooth lock washer attaching the motor
to the motor mounting plate. Discard all lock washers
and external-tooth lock washer.
11. Lift the motor from the motor mounting plate and set
aside.
12. Slide the motor mounting band from the old motor.
13. Slide the motor mounting band onto the new motor
and set the motor onto the motor mounting plate.
14. Remove the variable pitch pulley from the old motor
