Western Replacement Motor & Flanged Motor Installation guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the provided installation instructions for the Motor. This document details the steps for both replacement and flanged motor installations, including cable connections, tightening specs, and application of anti-seize. I'm ready to answer any specific questions you might have about these procedures.
  • What should be done with the screw for inverted applications?
    What is the tightening specification for the cap screws?
    What is the tightening specification for the nuts?
    Where should the ground cable be connected?
