Installation

Shaft Insertion: Electric Drive

Note: We have found it easier to install the shafts before mounting the heads onto the booms.
The shaft is held in place using a steel key, four setscrews and a split-locking collar. There are 3
grooves in the shaft. Two grooves to accommodate the setscrews and one for the locking collar.
There are also two setscrews in the two bearings that are shown in a close-up image on the next
page. See the image below to understand how the complete assembly goes together, and then
follow the instructions on the upcoming pages.
1) Slide the shaft up through both bearings until the groove for the locking collar has cleared the
upper bearing.
Note: You may need to loosen the bearing fasteners to install the shaft. After the shaft is
installed, re-tighten the fasteners.
2) Place the key locking collar and secure it into place.
3) Allow the shaft to slide down until the locking collar rests on the upper bearing.
4) Tighten all the setscrews on both bearings.
5) Place the key into the shaft slot. Apply Anti-Seize™ to the shaft, the key and the key slot.
6) Slide the complete Motor housing Assembly into place over the shaft studs as shown below.
