Installation Instructions
Electro-Clutch
A. Mounting the Electro-Clutch
1. Ideally, the Electro-Clutch should be mounted
on a through-shaft for firm support. In the case of a stub shaft, the stub should be as long as the clutch assembly, although for moderate duty applications a shaft which is 2/3 or more the length of the assembly normally provides adequate support.
2. Insert the key in the shaft. If the keyseat is
opened at one end of the shaft, prick punch the shaft to prevent the key from working out.
3. Slide the assembled Electro-Clutch on the
shaft. (When the Electro-Clutch is mounted on a stub shaft, the set collar end of the clutch should be toward the support bearings.) Tighten the setscrews in the set collar. (Figure 1)

4. Secure the torque arm to the tab on the field
and rotor assembly. Secure the other end of the torque arm to a solid base. Under no circumstances should the torque arm be pinned down so tightly that it preloads the bearing. For more information on torque tabs, see page 4.
